passport-http-custom-bearer

Passport strategy for HTTP Bearer authentication using custom header, body field, or query parameter names (rather than the standard Authorization header). Version 1.0.15 is the latest stable release; the package sees infrequent updates. It forks passport-http-bearer to allow configurable field names like X-APIAuth or api_token. Key differentiator: flexibility for non-standard token placements, commonly used in legacy or custom API gateway setups. Supports Node >=0.4.0 and works with Express/Connect-style middleware.
