# Authentication
|
||
|
|
||
|
> **Note**<br>
|
||
|
> The following page is based on version `1.0.0` of BrickTracker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> **Warning**<br>
|
||
|
> This is a lightweight access control feature and does not provide any strong layer of security to the application.
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default, every feature of the application is available.
|
||
|
Although it does not support individual accounts, it is possible to protect every "dangerous" feature under a password.
|
||
|
This can be useful if you want other people to access your inventory of sets in a "read-only" fashion.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To set up the authentication, you need to set the two following environment variables:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `BK_AUTHENTICATION_KEY`: a secret for the server to encrypt the session cookie. See [.env.sample](../.env.sample) for how to generate the value
|
||
|
- `BK_AUTHENTICATION_PASSWORD`: the actual password
|
||
|
|
||
|
> **Warning**<br>
|
||
|
> The password is stored in **plaintext**. Be mindful.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Once the authentication is set up, you should see a  pill on the right side of the menu bar.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you click on it, or if you try to access a page requiring authentication, you will not be greeted with a login prompt.
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
Once authenticated the pill will switch to .
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Login out
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you need to log out, click the  pill.
|
||
|
Then press the **Logout** button in the Admin page.
|
||
|
|
||
