func AuthenticateRequest ¶

func AuthenticateRequest(req *http.Request, cookieName string) (*common.AuthInfo, error)

Authenticate from the http Request handle directly Note: this step needs to happen before upgrading from http to websocket or any other protocol, allowing parsing of the provided headers.

Auth Token typically is sent as part of the Authorization Header, but for websocket kind of connection it is typically not a supported mechanism, Thus this function also allows working with a token passed as part of the cookie. by default it will look for cookie name "AUTH_TOKEN", Unless it is overidden as part of the argument cookie, if empty it falls back to default cookie name priority order 1. Authorization Header 2. if no token found above, get from cookie
