=head1 NAME Mojolicious::Plugin::DigestAuth - HTTP Digest Authentication for Mojolicious =head1 SYNOPSIS $self->plugin('digest_auth'); # In your action return unless $self->digest_auth(allow => { sshaw => 'password' }); # Or, in startup() my $r = $self->digest_auth('/admin', allow => { sshaw => 'password' }); $r->route('/new')->to('users#new'); =head1 CONFIGURATION =head2 SETUP Configuration can be done globally when loading the plugin $self->plugin('digest_auth', %options) or locally when calling L<< C|/digest_auth >> $self->digest_auth(%options); Local options override their global counterparts. For example, the following will apply to all authentication requests # setup() $self->plugin('digest_auth', realm => 'Thangz', expires => 120, allow => '/path/to/htdigest_file'); # controller sub show { my $self = shift; return unless $self->digest_auth; # ... } But can be overridden within an action sub edit { my $self = shift; return unless $self->digest_auth(realm => 'RealmX', expires => 24*3600, allow => { sshaw => 'Ay3Br4h_!' }); # ... } For a full list of options see L. =head2 AUTHENTICATION By default MD5/auth authentication is performed. This is configurable, see L. =head3 DB Authentication information is given via the C option and can be retrieved from a variety of sources: =over 4 =item * A hash reference without a realm $self->plugin('digest_auth', allow => { sshaw => 'my_pAzw3rD', admin => '->fofinha!' }); In this case users will either be placed into the realm given by the C option or the default realm, C. Passwords must be given in plain text. =item * A hash reference with realm(s) $self->plugin('digest_auth', allow => { 'Admin Realm' => { sshaw => 'my_pAzw3rD' }, 'WWW Users' => { tony => 'vrooooooom' }); Passwords must be given in plain text. =item * A htdigest style file $self->plugin('digest_auth', allow => '/home/sshaw/www_users'); =item * An object with a C method that returns B passwords $self->plugin('digest_auth', allow => $db); Arguments are passed to C in the following order: C. =back =head3 PERFORMING AUTHENTICATION Authentication can be performed by calling the C method from within the action you'd like to protect sub some_action { my $self = shift; return unless $self->digest_auth; # Authenticated users get here } If authentication is successful C returns true, otherwise C is returned and a HTTP 401 status code and the message: C are sent to the client. Currently this message cannot be changed. Authentication can also be performed for a set of routes by calling C from within your application's startup function. This form performs authentication automatically for all of the routes defined under the given URL: package YouWebApp; use Mojo::Base 'Mojolicious'; sub startup { my $self = shift; $self->plugin('digest_auth', %options); # ... my $admin = $self->digest_auth('/admin'); $admin->route('/new')->to('users#new'); $admin->route('/edit/:id')->to('users#edit'); } In this case authentication is performed via a L with a callback. =head1 METHODS =head2 plugin $self->plugin('digest_auth', %options) Loads the plugin and sets up the defaults given by C<%options>. =head3 Arguments C<%options> See L. =head3 Errors This method will C if if any of the options are invalid or if there is an error loading the password database. =head2 digest_auth $self->digest_auth(%options) $routes = $self->digest_auth($url, %options) =head3 Arguments C<$url> Optional. If provided authentication will be performed for all routes defined under C<$url>. See L. C<%options> =over 4 =item * C<< allow => { user => password } >> =item * C<< allow => { realm => { user => password }} >> =item * C<< allow => 'htdigest_file' >> =item * C<< allow => $obj >> See L. =item * C<< algorithm => 'MD5' | 'MD5-sess' >> Digest algorithm, either C<'MD5'> or C<'MD5-sess'>. Defaults to C<'MD5'>. C<'MD5-sess'> requires a C. =item * C<< domain => '/path' | 'your.domain.com' >> Authentication domain. Defaults to C<'/'>. =item * C<< expires => seconds >> Nonce lifetime. Defaults to C<300> seconds (5 minutes). =item * C<< qop => 'auth' | '' >> Quality of protection. Defaults to C<'auth'>. C is not supported. =item * C<< realm => 'Your Realm' >> Authentication realm. Defaults to C<'WWW'>. =back =head3 Returns Without a URL prefix: True if authentication was successful, C otherwise. If unsuccessful a HTTP 401 status code and message are sent to the client. With a URL prefix: An instance of L.
