Rack Regex Constrained BasicAuth Middleware

Rack::Auth::BasicPath implements basic auth for paths that match the specified RegEx.

Install the gem:

gem install rack-basic_path

Or in your Gemfile:

gem 'rack-basic_path'

Put something similar to the code below in config/application.rb of your Rails application. This would require basic auth for anything under /webhooks/squanchy.

module YourApp
  class Application < Rails::Application
    # ...

    # Rails 5
    config.middleware.use Rack::Auth::BasicPath, "johnny_marbles@rickandmorty.com", "super-squanch", /\/webhooks\/squanchy\/.*/

  end
end
