Enable HTTP authentication for the Parse Dashboard

To enable basic HTTP authentication for the Parse Dashboard, please follow the steps below:

• Stop the Parse server:

  $ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop parse
  

• Edit the script at /opt/bitnami/apps/parse/htdocs

  $ cd /opt/bitnami/apps/parse/htdocs
  $ vim server.js
  

• Edit the dashboard variable and add a new object following the example below:

  var dashboard = new ParseDashboard({
      apps: [
          {
          ...
          }
      ],
      users: [
          {
              user: 'USERNAME',
              pass: 'PASSWORD'
          }
      ]
  

  Remember to replace the USERNAME and PASSWORD placeholders with the desired access credentials, and ensure that there are no syntax errors, such as missing commas.

• Restart the Parse server:

  $ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart parse
