Basic Auth

Basic auth middleware provides an HTTP basic authentication.

• For valid credentials it calls the next handler.
• For missing or invalid credentials, it sends “401 - Unauthorized” response.

Usage

e.Use(middleware.BasicAuth(func(username, password string, c echo.Context) (bool, error) {
    if username == "joe" && password == "secret" {
        return true, nil
    }
    return false, nil
}))

Custom Configuration

Usage

e.Use(middleware.BasicAuthWithConfig(middleware.BasicAuthConfig{}))
