|
|
|
The BasicAuth middleware is a quick way to restrict access to your services to known users.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Examples
|
|
|
|
??? example "File -- Declaring the user list"
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[Middlewares]
|
|
[Middlewares.test-auth.basicauth]
|
|
users = ["test:$apr1$H6uskkkW$IgXLP6ewTrSuBkTrqE8wj/",
|
|
"test2:$apr1$d9hr9HBB$4HxwgUir3HP4EsggP/QNo0"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
??? example "Docker -- Using an external file for the authorized users"
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
a-container:
|
|
image: a-container-image
|
|
labels:
|
|
- "traefik.middlewares.declared-users-only.basicauth.usersFile=path-to-file.ext",
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Options
|
|
|
|
### General
|
|
|
|
Passwords must be encoded using MD5, SHA1, or BCrypt.
|
|
|
|
!!! tip
|
|
|
|
Use `htpasswd` to generate the passwords.
|
|
|
|
### users
|
|
|
|
The `users` option is an array of authorized users. Each user will be declared using the `name:encoded-password` format.
|
|
|
|
!!! Note
|
|
|
|
If both `users` and `usersFile` are provided, the two are merged. The content of `usersFile` has precedence over `users`.
|
|
|
|
### usersFile
|
|
|
|
The `usersFile` option is the path to an external file that contains the authorized users for the middleware.
|
|
|
|
The file content is a list of `name:encoded-password`.
|
|
|
|
??? example "A file containing test/test and test2/test2"
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
test:$apr1$H6uskkkW$IgXLP6ewTrSuBkTrqE8wj/
|
|
test2:$apr1$d9hr9HBB$4HxwgUir3HP4EsggP/QNo0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! Note
|
|
|
|
If both `users` and `usersFile` are provided, the two are merged. The content of `usersFile` has precedence over `users`.
|
|
|
|
### realm
|
|
|
|
You can customize the realm for the authentication with the `realm` option. The default value is `traefik`.
|
|
|
|
### headerField
|
|
|
|
You can customize the header field for the authenticated user using the `headerField`option.
|
|
|
|
??? example "File -- Passing Authenticated Users to Services Via Headers"
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[Middlewares.my-auth.basicauth]
|
|
usersFile = "path-to-file.ext"
|
|
headerField = "X-WebAuth-User" # header for the authenticated user
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### removeHeader
|
|
|
|
Set the `removeHeader` option to `true` to remove the authorization header before forwarding the request to your service. (Default value is `false`.)
