Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/773

Type

Propose a brand new feature

What is the problem that your feature request solves

I want to authenticate with a custom backend like Authelia

Describe the ideal specific solution you'd want, and whether it fits into any broader scope of changes

User should be able to switch to a custom backend in the settings for authentication and set custom header

What hacks or alternative solutions have you tried to solve the problem?

Creating a middelware manually and setting proper header for authentication and adding it to settings.py solves this issue locally... see: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/howto/auth-remote-user/

Authelia sets the Remote-User which translates to HTTP_REMOTE_USER

How badly do you want this new feature?

It would be nice to have eventually

I like ArchiveBox so far / would recommend it to a friend

I'd be open to merging PRs from other people to add this ability, but I'm unlikely to build it myself due to limited time.

If anyone wants to work on this please outline your proposed implementation here before you starting coding it!

Closing is as complete for now because ArchiveBox supports both reverse proxy auth and LDAP now.

Open new issues for any future requests!

Reopening to track adding the CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS config option.
