 sudo apt-get install libpam0g-dev

Then install this package on the folder your settings.js is located, typically ~/.node-red, by running

Usage

Just require the module and call the returning function, setting the result to adminAuth, as the example below:

// ...
//    }]
//},
adminAuth: require('node-red-auth-pam')(),

// To password protect the node-defined HTTP endpoints (httpNodeRoot), or
// the static content (httpStatic), the following properties can be used.
// ...

Limitations

• All authenticated users have full access, i.e. no permissions control
