Stateless Nginx Cookie Authentication

cookieauth.conf

# Simple Cookie Authorization (SCA)
#
# SCA sets up an auth scheme which uses a secure cookie, presenting basic
# auth if the cookie isn't supplied.
#
# Put this file in /etc/nginx/conf.d
#
# To use it, put a stanza like the following in a server section:
#
#    set $sca_realm "My Website";
#    set $sca_token "my_secret_key";
#    set $sca_token_max_age 7776000
#    if ($cookie_sca_auth_token = $sca_token) {
#        set $sca_auth_passed "yes";
#    }
#    auth_basic $sca_authorized_realm;
#    auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/passwords/my_website;
#    add_header Set-Cookie $sca_authorized_cookie;
#
# Tokens must not include commas, semicolons, or spaces.

map $sca_auth_passed $sca_authorized_realm {
    "yes" "off";
    default "$sca_realm";
}

# Don't send the cookie if the client already had it. This should allow the one
# already there to expire normally.
map $sca_authorized_realm $sca_authorized_cookie {
    "off" "";
    default "sca_auth_token=$sca_token; max-age=$sca_token_max_age; path=/; SameSite=strict; Secure; HttpOnly";
}

Merged. Thanks!
