SilverBullet supports simple authentication for a single user.

By simply passing the --user flag with a username:password combination, you enable authentication for a single user. For instance:

silverbullet --user pete:1234 .


Will let pete authenticate with password 1234.

Alternatively, the same information can be passed in via the SB_USER environment variable, e.g.

SB_USER=pete:1234 silverbullet .


This is especially convenient when deploying using Docker
