Spring Security Support custom http authentication schemes

Expected Behavior

I'd like a filter similar to BearerTokenAuthenticationFilter that would support custom http authentication schemes.

Current Behavior

As its name indicates, BearerTokenAuthenticationFilter only supports the Bearer authentication scheme.

Context

I need to support a custom authentication scheme.

Hi @reda-alaoui, can you elaborate more on your use-case? What is your custom authentication scheme? Have you tried using the AuthenticationFilter? Have you tried customizing the BearerTokenAuthenticationFilter properties?

Hi @marcusdacoregio , Here are some examples of registered authentication schemes => https://www.iana.org/assignments/http-authschemes/http-authschemes.xhtml I need to define a specific, unregistered one.

I didn't know the existence of AuthenticationFilter. Looks like it's a good solution. Should be enough for me, but I think an AuthenticationFilter dedicated to custom authentication scheme would be better.

I need to define a specific, unregistered one.

In that case you have to implement your own. To do that, you can use the AuthenticationFilter as I mentioned before
