So I definitely will to accept this. It makes sense; Restify–OAuth2 was being presumptuous to think all requests that have an authorization header are going to be signed with an OAuth2 token. Better to assume all requests with authorization type But yeah, I want to fix up the tests, add some unit tests too, maybe make that example a bit clearer, and so on. So I'll merge this over the weekend when I have time to do all those things :). Sorry for the delay in replying. I kept thinking I'd have time to just merge it and do all those things, but it's been a few days now, so I thought you deserved to know what's up. |

Right now, if I'm using restify-oauth2 then I can't have basic auth on any of my endpoints because it will respond with a 401 before it gets to my route. In some cases, I would like to loosely secure an endpoint with just basic auth and nothing else or allow basic auth and oauth authorization.
This change allows for users to implement their own basic auth endpoints if they see fit without compromising the req.username or req.clientId checks.
