Function BasicAuth

_examples/interceptor/internal/redact/basic.go:29–35

BasicAuth extracts basic auth credentials from the request and returns the username and a masked password. The password is masked to show only the first and last characters if it's 5+ characters long, otherwise it's fully masked. Returns empty strings and false if no auth is present.

(r *http.Request)

// the first and last characters if it's 5+ characters long, otherwise
// it's fully masked. Returns empty strings and false if no auth is present.
func BasicAuth(r *http.Request) (username, maskedPassword string, ok bool) {
	username, password, ok := r.BasicAuth()
	if !ok {
		return "", "", false
	}
	return username, MaskPassword(password), true
}

// MaskPassword masks a password string, showing only the first and last
// characters if the password is 5+ characters long. Passwords shorter
