=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Catalyst qw/
      Authentication
    /;

    __PACKAGE__->config(
        authentication => {
            default_realm => 'test',
            realms => {
                test => {
                    credential => {
                        class          => 'Password',
                        password_field => 'password',
                        password_type  => 'self_check',
                    },
                    store => {
                        class => 'Htpasswd',
                        file => 'htpasswd',
                    },
                },
            },
        },   
    );

    sub login : Global {

        $c->authenticate({ username => $c->req->param("login"), password => $c->req->param("password") });
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This plugin uses L<Authen::Htpasswd> to let your application use C<<.htpasswd>>
files for it's authentication storage.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new

Simple constructor, dies if the htpassword file can't be found

=head2 find_user

Looks up the user, and returns a Catalyst::Authentication::Store::Htpasswd::User object.

=head2 user_supports

Delegates to L<Catalyst::Authentication::Store::Htpasswd::User->user_supports|Catalyst::Authentication::Store::Htpasswd::User#user_supports>

=head2 from_session

Delegates the user lookup to C<< find_user >>

=head1 CONFIGURATION

=head2 file

The path to the htpasswd file. If the path starts with a slash, then it is assumed to be a fully
qualified path, otherwise the path is fed through C<< $c->path_to >> and so normalised to the 
application root.

Alternatively, it is possible to pass in an L<Authen::Htpasswd> object here, and this will be
used as the htpasswd file.

=head2 user_class

Change the user class which this store returns. Defaults to L<Catalyst::Authentication::Store::Htpasswd::User>.
This can be used to add additional functionality to the user class by sub-classing it, but will not normally be
needed.

=head2 user_field

Change the field that the username is found in in the information passed into the call to C<< $c->authenticate() >>.

This defaults to I< username >, and generally you should be able to use the module as shown in the synopsis, however
if you need a different field name then this setting can change the default.

Example:

    __PACKAGE__->config( authentication => { realms => { test => {
                    store => {
                        class => 'Htpasswd',
                        user_field => 'email_address',
                    },
    }}});
    # Later in your code
    $c->authenticate({ email_address => $c->req->param("email"), password => $c->req->param("password") });
