feature: Basic auth for web console

[zekiahmetbayar]

Hi,

I did not want everyone to read the data I wrote to the tasks, and encrypting and decrypting this data slowed down my application. For this reason, I researched whether there was a basic auth option and came across this. #78

When I saw that it was not yet available, I wanted to make an improvement for this application and I added basic auth.

Features:

• Basic auth

I've found another solution, without modifying the base code. Given the example with gorilla mux.

First - create asynqmon handler

var h = asynqmon.New(asynqmon.Options{
	RootPath: "/monitoring",
	RedisConnOpt: asynq.RedisClientOpt{
		Addr:     "localhost:6379",
		DB:       0,
		Password: "",
})

Second - create gorilla mux sub-router with your middleware and attach handler for that route.

monitoring := r.PathPrefix(h.RootPath()).Subrouter()
monitoring.Use(isAuthenticated, isAuthorised, exampleMiddleware)
monitoring.NewRoute().Handler(h)

Important

It is important to use NewRoute(), in order to be able to attach he handler.

Bellow is the exampleMiddleware where you can add your logic.

var exampleMiddleware = func(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
	return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		allowed := true
                 
                 if !allowed {
                 	w.WriteHeader(http.StatusForbidden)
                 	return
                 }

		next.ServeHTTP(w, r.WithContext(ctx))

	})
}
