[Show and tell] Luigi server behind authentication

[tashri...@gmail.com]

Hello all,

For a long time, I have been looking for an authentication mechanism to host a public Luigi server. I have figured it out. My Luigi server is running behing Nginx reverse proxy. Upon doing the following, http://my-luigid-server.org/ should be behind a login. Also, you can use that server to run Luigi tasks from the command line.

Inside luigi.cfg:

default-scheduler-url = http://user:pass...@my-luigid-server.org/

Inside nginx.conf:

        location / {

            auth_basic "Skeptical Sys Admin";

            auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.luigipasswd;

            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8082;

            proxy_set_header Connection "";

            proxy_http_version 1.1;

        }

How to create /etc/nginx/.luigipasswd:

Let me know if you need any help,
