Basic authentication example
from flask import Flask from flask_httpauth import HTTPBasicAuth from werkzeug.security import generate_password_hash, check_password_hash app = Flask(__name__) auth = HTTPBasicAuth() users = { "john": generate_password_hash("hello"), "susan": generate_password_hash("bye") } @auth.verify_password def verify_password(username, password): if username in users and \ check_password_hash(users.get(username), password): return username @app.route('/') @auth.login_required def index(): return "Hello, %s!" % auth.current_user() if __name__ == '__main__': app.run()
Note: See the documentation for more complex examples that involve password hashing and custom verification callbacks.
