DOORMAN
=======

Doorman is an http proxy that authenticates via OAuth.

Your organization probably has some internal services that need to be
password-protected. You likely also already manage users using an external
service. (Github, Google Apps, etc) Wouldn't it be nice if you could
delegate your internal app's authentication/authorization to that app?

Requirements
------------

* node.js >= 0.8.x

Installation
------------

* `npm install`
* copy conf.example.js to conf.js and modify
* `npm start`

Strategies
----------

Doorman uses [everyauth](https://github.com/bnoguchi/everyauth) for authenticating,
so it supports a wide variety of providers for authentication. For authorization,
we need to determine which authenticated users to let in. (see `lib/modules`) So
far only the Github and Google modules are complete, but others are fairly easy.

Acknowledgements
----------------

Doorman is pretty much just everyauth (https://github.com/bnoguchi/everyauth) and
node-http-proxy (https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy) grafted together,
and those two projects do most of the heavy lifting.
