Given is an application behind a Nginx configured as reverse proxy. The application requires user login via a web form and HTTP POST. Is there a possibility to provide the credentials of a generic technical user to Nginx and let it automatically do a login, so that users don’t have to login explicitly anymore?
It might be tough without some kind of module 🙂 but If it is an internal application you might tell nginx to to add certain headers to every request and authenticate by them. But if it is a production app I wouldn’t go this path 🙂
