"""HTTP Digest Authentication tool.

An implementation of the server-side of HTTP Digest Access
Authentication, which is described in :rfc:`2617`.

Example usage, using the built-in get_ha1_dict_plain function which uses a dict
of plaintext passwords as the credentials store::

    userpassdict = {'alice' : '4x5istwelve'}
    get_ha1 = cherrypy.lib.auth_digest.get_ha1_dict_plain(userpassdict)
    digest_auth = {'tools.auth_digest.on': True,
                   'tools.auth_digest.realm': 'wonderland',
                   'tools.auth_digest.get_ha1': get_ha1,
                   'tools.auth_digest.key': 'a565c27146791cfb',
                   'tools.auth_digest.accept_charset': 'UTF-8',
    }
    app_config = { '/' : digest_auth }
