How to provide an Authorization Token in Golang

[ghost]

the golang sdk doc dose not talk about any possible way how a user can provide authorization token, just like in java sdk theres a separate doc for authorization. can we have a similar doc, and i would like to know how it can be done.

I have opened temporalio/samples-go#160 to address this.

There are two ways, you can set client.Options.HeadersProvider with an instance that returns a map with Authorization as the key and Bearer <mytoken> as the value.

The other way is only on the newest SDK. You can set gRPC dial options directly on client.Options.ConnectionOptions.DialOptions which could have an interceptor where you can set the header via gRPC metadata. This is basically how the first way is implemented.

The sample at https://github.com/temporalio/samples-go/tree/main/serverjwtauth shows how to make a custom header provider at https://github.com/temporalio/samples-go/blob/b49280daa78f354036d7d749157252369bca9b89/serverjwtauth/keyutil.go#L135 to set headers with a token.
