I'm trying to use a module like http-auth<https://github.com/gevorg/http-auth/>
to
centrally auth HTTP traffic before piping it along to "actual" HTTP servers
via TCP stream.
Ideally, I could do something like:
net.createServer(function(sock) {
sock.pipe(httpAuth).pipe(remoteHTTP) *// thus remoteHTTP's traffic is always
authenticated*
}).listen(9798)
var remoteHTTP = net.connect(6788)* // some HTTP service*
But the problem is http-auth expects to be passed a req, res:
var auth = require('http-auth')var basic = auth({
authRealm : "Private area.",
authList : ['mia:{SHA}x511ncXd+4fOnYAotcGPFD0peYo=']});
http.createServer(function(req, res) {
// Apply authentication to server.
basic.apply(req, res, function(username) {
// Your request handling logic goes there
res.end("Welcome to private area - " + username + "!");
});}).listen(1337);
Is there any way to convert a net stream into a format that could be
handled by something like http-auth? Or another way to do http digest auth
without interrupting the streams?
