== DESCRIPTION
HTAuth is a pure ruby replacement for the Apache support programs htdigest and
htpasswd. Command line and API access are provided for access to htdigest and
htpasswd files.
== FEATURES
HTAuth provides to drop in commands *htdigest-ruby* and *htpasswd-ruby* that
can manipulate the digest and passwd files in the same manner as Apache's
original commands.
*htdigest-ruby* and *htpasswd-ruby* are command line compatible with *htdigest*
and *htpasswd*. They support the same exact same command line options as the
originals, and have some extras.
Additionally, you can access all the functionality of *htdigest-ruby* and
*htpasswd-ruby* through an API.
== SYNOPSIS
* htpasswd-ruby command line application
Usage:
htpasswd-ruby [-cmdpsD] passwordfile username
htpasswd-ruby -b[cmdpsD] passwordfile username password
htpasswd-ruby -n[mdps] username
htpasswd-ruby -nb[mdps] username password
-b, --batch Batch mode, get the password from the command line, rather than prompt
-c, --create Create a new file; this overwrites an existing file.
-d, --crypt Force CRYPT encryption of the password (default).
-D, --delete Delete the specified user.
-h, --help Display this help.
-m, --md5 Force MD5 encryption of the password (default on Windows).
-n, --stdout Do not update the file; Display the results on stdout instead.
-p, --plaintext Do not encrypt the password (plaintext).
-s, --sha1 Force SHA encryption of the password.
-v, --version Show version info.
* htdigest-ruby command line application
Usage: htdigest-ruby [options] passwordfile realm username
-c, --create Create a new digest password file; this overwrites an existing file.
-D, --delete Delete the specified user.
-h, --help Display this help.
-v, --version Show version info.
* API Usage
HTAuth::DigestFile.new("some.htdigest") do |df|
df.add_or_update('someuser', 'myrealm', 'a password')
df.delete('someolduser', 'myotherrealm')
end
HTAuth::PasswdFile.new("some.htpasswd", HTAuth::File::CREATE) do |pf|
pf.add('someuser', 'a password', 'md5')
pf.add('someotheruser', 'a different password', 'sha1')
end
