Authentication / Password Protect Web UI

[DebugDax]

Hello,

Could you please add support to have the Web front-end be password protected?

I would like to access my self hosted container outside my network but I can't do that if the site is public without any password protection.

I would think a method to approach this could be:

1. .htaccess/.htpasswd, but I don't know how you would configure those values via Docker Environment variables

2. A custom HTML page that is a login form to redirect to the actual Website-Shot webpage.

3. A password field on the Website-Shot capture page that must be filled in and match the Docker Environment Variable: "capture_password" for the Capture to process (Or from a local config file for non-docker users).

Personally, I think Method 3 would be the least invasive.

docker pull flowko1/website-shot

docker run -t -d --restart always -p 3000:3000 -e PASSWORD_PROTECT=1 -e PASSWORD=yourpassword website-shot

I set up the new container and it works great! Unauthorized if password is wrong, Captures if password is right.
My only recommendation would be to change it from a text box to a password box so that the password isn't visible on my screen as plain text.

Thank you for adding this so quickly!
