those variables get filled with the values you enter in the Authentication dialogue when it asks for a username and password
Thank you, Nikos! Your direction toward Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic was good hint. Maybe this solution has some value to others to, so I share it here. Because my little app acts like AJAX-feeder for other pages (which are protected with Auth basic), it is not permitted to reponse indepentently, but only if it is called from pages behind certain realm. So all I needed finally, was this little app.psgi: #!/usr/bin/env perl use Dancer; use Plack::Builder; use Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic; use My::App; my $app = sub { my $env = shift; my $request = Dancer::Request->new( env => $env ); Dancer->dance( $request ); }; builder { enable "Auth::Basic", realm => 'admin', authenticator => sub { my ( $username, $password ) = @_; return $username ? 1 : 0; }; $app; }; Thank you all! -- Wbr, Kõike hääd, G
