mdedetrich / censored-raw-header   0.7.0

Censored raw header is a simple implementation of RawHeader which allows you to provide a custom .toString method. This is useful when it comes to censoring log output of headers of sensitive information, such as OAuth2 tokens.

Put this into your build.sbt

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "org.mdedetrich" %% "censored-raw-header" % "0.7.0"
)

Then simply created your own custom CensoredRawHeader, i.e. if you want to store an OAuth2 token with implicit flow you might do the following

import akka.http.scaladsl.model.headers.CensoredRawHeader

val token: String = ??? // Some Token  

CensoredRawHeader("Authorization",
                        s"Bearer $token",
                        s"Bearer ${token.take(3)}...${token.takeRight(3)}")

This means that when someone accesses the raw value from within the CensoredRawHeader they will get the actual value, however if they call .toString on the CensoredRawHeader (or any data structure containing the CensoredRawHeader) it will print the first 3 characters of the token, then ... and then the last 3 values of the token
