This would be amazing. If you are looking for examples of how to implement this, Grafana & GitTea both have solid implementations. |

I also would find this feature extremely helpful! Just to give a little more detail, the perfect proxy auth feature for me would work like this:

@cmintey do you know if your work landing OIDC auth makes this project any easier? I explored this a bit but nuxtjs is pretty opaque to me, unfortunately, and I inferred from trawling the docs and a comment you made somewhere that there's nothing built into nuxt's auth package to really facilitate here. Is there machinery in place now (or perhaps also leveraging parts of #2040) that might make this project within reach? |

To avoid having to tackle the more complex OpenID Connect stuff, reverse proxy/header authentication could be used instead / as a stop gap. Basically you run the application behind a reverse proxy, and the proxy authenticates the user and adds
Remote-User
andRemote-Groups
(if applicable) headers to the request to tell the app which user is logged in, the app often has a "trusted proxies" configuration which prevents other sources from using this to bypass auth.Originally posted by @m00nwtchr in #1197 (comment)
