Secured server

[Apcio]

Hello.
How can I safety use bootstrap on secured servers (server admins, db admins, users) ?
I can pass to URL http://login:pas@domain but I don't think, this is a good idea ?

In CLI and Node.js ?

Currently only auth urls are supported for the CLI.

For api usage you can pass in everything nano acceps. Here you can pass requestDefaults with an auth object.

For example:

bootstrap({
  url: 'https://couch.example.com',
  requestDefaults: {
    auth: {
      user: 'bob',
      pass: 'secure'
    }
  }
}, 'path/to/fs', cb)

I couldn't get this to work (#28), but a basic auth URL (e.g. http://admin:admin@localhost:5984) worked fine in both the CLI and API.
