This val use a json web token stored as an http-only cookie to persist authentication.

Usage

Set an AUTH_SECRET_KEY env variable (used to sign/verify jwt tokens). Use an API token to authenticate.

import { auth } from "https://esm.town/v/pomdtr/auth_middleware"; async function handler(req: Request): Promise<Response> { return new Response("You are authenticated!"); } export default auth(handler);

See @pomdtr/test_auth for an example

⚠️ Make sure to only provides your api token to vals you trust (i.e. your own), as it gives access to your whole account.
