.. image:: https://travis-ci.org/jonashaag/httpauth.svg?branch=master
:target: https://travis-ci.org/jonashaag/httpauth

Installation
------------
::

pip install httpauth

Using with credentials dictionary
---------------------------------
::

secured_wsgi_app = httpauth.DictHttpAuthMiddleware(
{'user1': 'password1', 'user2': 'password2'},
wsgi_app=unsecured_wsgi_app,
#realm='Secured Content', # optional
)

Using with a ``.htdigest`` file
-------------------------------
::

secured_wsgi_app = httpauth.DigestFileHttpAuthMiddleware(
open('/path/to/your/.htdigest'),
wsgi_app=unsecured_wsgi_app,
)

``.htdigest`` files can be created using the ``htdigest`` Apache tool.

Securing only some URLs
-----------------------
If given, the ``routes`` parameter (a list of regular expressions) specifies
the URLs to be secured. (By default, all URLs are secured.)

::

secured_wsgi_app = httpauth.DictHttpAuthMiddleware(
{'user': 'password'},
wsgi_app=unsecured_wsgi_app,
routes=['^/admin/', '^/another/secret/page/$'],
)
