Alternative to Basic Auth? #2639

Closed

Description

@zynexiz

I'm looking to implement BunkerWeb in our municipallys' IT-environment, and got a request to add a service for the public to access. At the moment no authentication is needed, but we where talking about adding something in the future for it. We have other services that we will put behind BunkerWeb to.

At the moment, BunkerWeb supports Basic Auth, which works decent for basic stuff with a few users. But we need something more stable that could me used as authentication for an application. Basic auth is to messy to work with when you have hundreds of users. Is there a way to implement authentication using SAML/OAuth protocols or something similar, instead of basic auth?

I looked thru the documentation, but couldn't find anything about it (or I might have missed it).

    Hi @zynexiz, we have an example using Authentik. Which is pretty good.

    After some thinking, use Authelia instead as we have issues with Authentik (my bad)
