Add additional Cloudron Proxy Auth option on apps

[andreasdueren]

It would be nice to be able to be able to put the cloudron proxy auth before apps, even after install. One use case could for example to add auth in front of a LAMP stack during development of a website.

Do you mean we can have Proxy Auth built into the app configuration view? IIUC, installing separate proxy auth would mean having to manage another domain. Double login can be confusing, so maybe some opt-in mechanism in manifest.

I believe that this is what I tried to convey here also.

Would be a nice addition indeed especially if made available not only for LAMP/Surfer app (already a good start) but also others ones.

@joseph Not sure if I can follow. I understand what @girish said in App proxy questions and proxy/authentication possible improvement suggestions

But from Cloudron's POV, there is authentication and authorization

But basically adding the option to add optional Authentication in front of any app (presumably through the web server) would be very useful in a lot of cases. This is already a feature in the proxy app but would be good to be a toggle in any app.
