Flask-HTTPAuth ==============

Simple extension that provides Basic, Digest and Token HTTP authentication for Flask routes.

Installation

pip install Flask-HTTPAuth

Basic authentication example

from flask import Flask
from flask_httpauth import HTTPBasicAuth
from werkzeug.security import generatepasswordhash, checkpasswordhash
app = Flask(name) auth = HTTPBasicAuth()
users = {     "john": generatepasswordhash("hello"),     "susan": generatepasswordhash("bye") }
@auth.verify_password def verify_password(username, password):     if username in users and \             checkpasswordhash(users.get(username), password):         return username
@app.route('/') @auth.login_required def index():     return "Hello, %s!" % auth.current_user()
if name == 'main':     app.run()

Note: See the documentation for more complex examples that involve password hashing and custom verification callbacks.

Digest authentication example

from flask import Flask
from flask_httpauth import HTTPDigestAuth
app = Flask(name) app.config['SECRET_KEY'] = 'secret key here' auth = HTTPDigestAuth()
users = {     "john": "hello",     "susan": "bye" }
@auth.get_password def get_pw(username):     if username in users:         return users.get(username)     return None
@app.route('/') @auth.login_required def index():     return "Hello, %s!" % auth.username()
if name == 'main':     app.run()
