Create Basic Auth User Credentials - mailslurper/mailslurper GitHub Wiki

When basic authentication is enabled in MailSlurper users must be setup so they can log in. There is a tool called createcredentials, which is a small command-line tool, which will prompt for a user name and a password. This will generate a hash value which can be inserted into your config.json file. To begin, open your command prompt/terminal.

Windows

C:\mailslurper> createcredentials.exe

OSX/Linux

$ ./createcredentials

This will prompt you for a user name and a password like the screenshot below.

Once you've generated a user name and password, copy those values into your config.json file in the credentials section. Here is an example.
