A custom node for ComfyUI that implements basic HTTP authentication, enhancing security by requiring a username and password to access the interface. This tool is designed to safeguard your ComfyUI instance from unauthorized access.
- Provides a straightforward method for implementing basic authentication in ComfyUI.
- Allows easy configuration through environment variables for user credentials.
- Lightweight design ensures compatibility with all versions of ComfyUI without adding significant overhead.
Context
This tool functions as a middleware for ComfyUI, introducing a layer of basic HTTP authentication to protect the application. Its primary goal is to secure the ComfyUI instance by ensuring that only authorized users can access it.
Key Features & Benefits
The main feature is the implementation of basic HTTP authentication, which requires users to enter a username and password before gaining access to ComfyUI. This simple yet effective security measure helps to prevent unauthorized access, making it particularly useful for instances that may be exposed to public networks.
Advanced Functionalities
While the tool focuses on basic authentication, it requires users to set environment variables for their credentials, which adds a layer of configuration flexibility. Although it does not offer advanced security features like token-based authentication, it serves as a foundational security measure for users seeking to protect their ComfyUI setups.
Practical Benefits
By integrating this authentication middleware, users can significantly enhance the security of their ComfyUI workflows. This tool helps streamline user access management, ensuring that sensitive operations and data within ComfyUI are safeguarded, thus improving overall control and efficiency.
