From 483c32cfbfd3debadbec447621302dd7d694f849 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: ReAnzu <anzu@reanzu.com>
Date: Sun, 25 Feb 2018 04:44:02 -0600
Subject: [PATCH] User Token Authentication * Users are only authenticated
 against their password on login, and to retrieve a token. * Passwords are
 wiped from the app and cookies after login and token retrieval * Tokens are
 revoked at the end of the session/logout * If the user chooses the "remember
 me" option, the token is stored in the cookie * A user interface to revoke
 tokens will be added * Tokens correctly delete themselves on logout * API
 documentation updated for the new user-token endpoints * Added a Manage
 tokens tab to the user panel * Added bullet point about the token
 authentication for the API * Added tests for new endpoints and tests against
 authentication middleware

 ## Authentication
 
 Authentication is achieved by means of [basic HTTP
-auth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication). For this
-reason, it is recommended to connect through HTTPS. There are no sessions, so
-every privileged request must be authenticated. Available privileges depend on
-the user's rank. The way how rank translates to privileges is defined in the

+auth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication) or through the 
+use of [user token authentication](#user-token-authentication). For this reason, 
+it is recommended to connect through HTTPS. There are no sessions, so every 
+privileged request must be authenticated. Available privileges depend on the 
+user's rank. The way how rank translates to privileges is defined in the server's 
+configuration.
 
 It is recommended to add `?bump-login` GET parameter to the first request in a
 client "session" (where the definition of a session is up to the client), so
 that the user's last login time is kept up to date.
 
+## User token authentication
+
+User token authentication works similarly to [basic HTTP 
+auth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication). Because it
+operates similarly to ***basic HTTP auth*** it is still recommended to connect
+through HTTPS. The authorization header uses the type of Token and the username
+and token are encoded as Base64 and sent as the second parameter.
+
+Example header for user1:token-is-more-secure
+```
+Authorization: Token dXNlcjE6dG9rZW4taXMtbW9yZS1zZWN1cmU=
+```
+
+The benefit of token authentication is that beyond the initial login to acquire
+the first token, there is no need to transmit the user password in plaintext via
+basic auth. Additionally tokens can be revoked at anytime allowing a cleaner 
+interface for isolating clients from user credentials.
