DESCRIPTION

Mojolicious::Plugin::BasicAuthPlus is a helper for basic HTTP authentication that supports multiple authentication schemes, including an inline callback, hard-coded username and password, a passwd file, LDAP, or Active Directory.

METHODS

basic_auth

Configure specific auth method (see OPTIONS). Returns 1 on success, 0 on failure.

CONFIGURATION

The basic_auth method takes an HTTP Basic Auth realm name that either designates a subroutine with which to do the authentication check, or a named hash, where the realm is the hash name. When the realm represents a named hash, the key/value pairs specify the source of user credentials on which to match and other related parameters.

Realm names may contain whitespace.

The username and password may be defined explicitly, or authentication can be against a passwd file, LDAP, or Active Directory. The following options may be set in the hash:

username

Specify the username to match.

password

Specify the password to match. The string may be plaintext or use any of the formats noted in Authen::Simple::Password.

path

The location of a password file holding user credentials. Per Authen::Simple::Passwd, "Any standard passwd file that has records seperated with newline and fields seperated by ":" is supported. First field is expected to be username and second field, plain or encrypted password. Required."

host

The hostname or IP address of an LDAP or Active Directory server.

basedn

The base DN to use with LDAP or Active Directory.

binddn

The bind DN to use when doing an authenticated bind against LDAP or Active Directory.

bindpw

The password to use when doing an authenticated bind to LDAP or Active Directory.

If username and password are defined, then other options pertaining to a passwd file or LDAP/ActiveDirectory authentication will be ignored, because it it assumed you intend to compare the defined username and password against those supplied by the user.
