Authentication

Authenticator
An authenticator is an executable or script used for token-based authentication. During HTTP handshake, webfuse will scan for the configured HTTP header and invoke the authenticator.
authenticator TOKEN

contains the contents of the HTTP header.
Header restrictions
Note that not any HTTP header can be specified using --wf-auth-header
option. The following headers are supported:
X-Auth-Token
Authorization
In addition to that, any non-standard header can be specified.
Due to implementation limitation, most standard headers can not be used by now. Please let us know, when you intend to use a header that is not supported yet. Please create an issue in that case.
