Basic authentication for Flarum
===============================

[](#basic-authentication-for-flarum)

This extension enables users to seamlessly log into [Flarum](https://github.com/flarum/core) with HTTP basic authentication.

Note that PHP variables $\_SERVER\['HTTP\_EMAIL'\], $\_SERVER\['PHP\_AUTH\_USER'\], $\_SERVER\['PHP\_AUTH\_PW'\] need to be set for the extension to work. The extension itself will *not* actively try to have them populated. You need to have a SSO portal interfacing on your server, like [SSOwat](https://github.com/YunoHost/SSOwat).

Users will be automatically registered and activated, if missing from Flarum.

How to install
--------------

[](#how-to-install)

`composer require tituspijean/flarum-ext-auth-basic` and activate it in Flarum's administration panel.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

None needed.
