+
+Generic basic auth Authorization header field parser for whatever.
+
+## Installation
+
+This is a [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) module available through the
+[npm registry](https://www.npmjs.com/). Installation is done using the
+[`npm install` command](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-npm-packages-locally):
+
+```
+$ npm install basic-auth
+```
+
+## API
+
+<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars -->
+
+```js
+var auth = require('basic-auth')
+```
+
+### auth(req)
+
+Get the basic auth credentials from the given request. The `Authorization`
+header is parsed and if the header is invalid, `undefined` is returned,
+otherwise an object with `name` and `pass` properties.
+
+### auth.parse(string)
+
+Parse a basic auth authorization header string. This will return an object
+with `name` and `pass` properties, or `undefined` if the string is invalid.
+
+## Example
+
+Pass a Node.js request object to the module export. If parsing fails
+`undefined` is returned, otherwise an object with `.name` and `.pass`.
+
+<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars, no-undef -->
+
+```js
+var auth = require('basic-auth')
+var user = auth(req)
+// => { name: 'something', pass: 'whatever' }
+```
+
+A header string from any other location can also be parsed with
+`auth.parse`, for example a `Proxy-Authorization` header:
+
+<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars, no-undef -->
+
+```js
+var auth = require('basic-auth')
+var user = auth.parse(req.getHeader('Proxy-Authorization'))
+```
+
+### With vanilla node.js http server
+
+```js
+var http = require('http')
+var auth = require('basic-auth')
+var compare = require('tsscmp')
+
+// Create server
+var server = http.createServer(function (req, res) {
+  var credentials = auth(req)
+
+  // Check credentials
+  // The "check" function will typically be against your user store
+  if (!credentials || !check(credentials.name, credentials.pass)) {
+    res.statusCode = 401
+    res.setHeader('WWW-Authenticate', 'Basic realm="example"')
+    res.end('Access denied')
+  } else {
+    res.end('Access granted')
+  }
+})
+
+// Basic function to validate credentials for example
+function check (name, pass) {
+  var valid = true
+
+  // Simple method to prevent short-circut and use timing-safe compare
+  valid = compare(name, 'john') && valid
+  valid = compare(pass, 'secret') && valid
+
+  return valid
+}
+
+// Listen
+server.listen(3000)
+```
