Middleware can do the hard work for you. For example, add in Basic Authentication.
import { basicAuth } from 'hono/basic-auth'
// ...
app.use(
'/admin/*',
basicAuth({
username: 'admin',
password: 'secret',
})
)
app.get('/admin', (c) => {
return c.text('You are authorized!')
})
There are useful built-in middleware including Bearer and authentication using JWT, CORS and ETag. Hono also provides third-party middleware using external libraries such as GraphQL Server and Firebase Auth. And, you can make your own middleware.
