Ambassador Auth Service

Example auth service for Ambassador using ExtAuth. See the Ambassador documentation for more information.

Using the service

The service listens on port 3000 and supports the ExtAuth interaction pattern. In short, the service expects a POST to the path /ambassador/auth with client request headers as a JSON map in the POST body. If auth is okay, it returns a 200 to allow the client request to go through. Otherwise it returns a 401 with an HTTP Basic Auth WWW-Authenticate header. Take a look at ExtAuth for more information about the Envoy side of things.

The current version of this code only performs auth when the client headers indicate a request under the /service path. The only valid credentials are username:password. It should be straightforward to extend this sample to perform meaningful auth.

Run using Node

The example service requires a recent version of Node that supports const.
