HMAC Authentication Filter
Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) implementation filter for Clyde API gateway.
Implementation is based on hmmac module.
Installation
npm install clydeio-hmac-auth --save
Configuration
Filter accepts the configuration properties:
realm
: A string that identifies the authentication realm.consumers
: An object with the list ofkey
properties andsecret
values.
Examples
Securing a provider
Here we are configuring a provider that is accessed for any URL that starts by: http://CLYDE_SERVER/context
.
The requests are redirected to http://some_server
but before HMAC authentication is applied.
The authentication realm
is Provider's Realm
and the only available user is those that signs request with the keyA
and applying the secret secretA
.

Notes
- It must be configured as a global or provider's prefilter. It has no sense as a postfilter.
