Guarding Routes

To guard a specific route, you must add the guard() function to your route as middleware.

N.B: The guard() function takes an instance of the Authenticator class.

app.get('/some-route', guard(authenticator), (req, res) => {
    // Route code goes here...
}

Sending Authenticated Requests

The default method for sending authenticated requests is to send the token returned from the Authenticator().generateToken() method in the x-auth header of the request.

If you specified the header name that you wanted to be used for requests when you created the new Authenticator() object then you may use your custom header name for requests instead of the default.
