96 | | The development server can inject a WSGI middle component that performs HTTP authentication (either Basic or Digest) against a specified password file. This is intended primarily for developing and testing authorization-sensitive parts of your application. In particular, this middleware is not intended to be used on production systems where security is critical. |

98 | 98 | The `--digest` option is used to specify the text file containing the credentials for digest authentication, in a format compatible with the [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/htdigest.html Apache htdigest tool]. The ``--basic`` option allows you to use an unencrypted password file for even simpler setup. The `--realm` option can be used to specify a different realm, where the default is the name of the `Application` class. This realm needs to match the realm used in the digest file. |
