Hey all!

New to lemmy and want to share a project I've been working on: nforwardauth (https://github.com/NOSDuco/nforwardauth) a simple forwardauth service for Traefik (and other reverse proxies) I built after being sick of basic auth. It now contains a logout page if you navigate to the auth service after being logged in. Another upgrade added is basic auth compatibility. For things like nzb360 where you need to skip the login form, you can specify your same credentials in the URL via basic auth and you will be authenticated with each request.

Hope this is useful to someone :)

Wow, this looks incredible! I always wanted to to deploy something like Authelia or Authentik but they seemed way too heavy for my purpose.

Whats the runtime memory usage of the docker container?

[–] nos 6 points 1 year ago

That exact reasoning is what led me to make this project! :)

As for memory usage, the nforwardauth container uses about 4MB of memory when running with the Traefik example (under examples/traefik-v2)

Thanks and hope this helps!
