Basic http auth

[shyamchandranmec]

Hi,
I would like to add basic http authentication to a subset of routes.
For eg: /app/* should have basic http authentication.
I couldn't find an example.
Pls help

Hi. Which version are you currently using? Also would please provide more details about use case?
I mean how should auth useful without protecting API itself?

@pi0 version 1.0.0 alpha.3 . I have another app using version 0.10.5.
These are just protected pages which will be accessible to only few people. Api interactions are very rare in such pages.

This will help us to create protected pages quickly without setting up session/token based authentication.

I've provided a minimal example for basic auth using nuxt 1.x serverMiddleware feature:
https://glitch.com/edit/#!/nuxt-basic-auth?path=auth.js:13:8
https://nuxt-basic-auth.glitch.me/about

But consider that this is not enough. Client side routes should be protected too using middleware. (For example when navigate from / => /about)

PS I've closed this as a more general auth solution is coming after stable 1 release :)

@pi0 Thanks for the example.
