Convenience method to opt out of authentication on all routes

[jrios]

For some sites, opting into authentication for every route might not be the most ideal. In order to remove this functionality, you have to configure the bottle in a way that might not be the most intuitive:

Import<ApplyAuthentication>(authentication =>
{
    authentication.Include(chain => false);
    //Configure routes to include authentication
});

It would be nice to have an option to easily opt out of authentication from all routes and then configure the routes that need to be authenticated.

I agree - we're definitely going to need this more than the current method which enforces auth on every route.

Just to be clear: This IS doable today. The real issue is that it's just not intuitive.

For some reason, this little configuration above doesn't work for me - it still tries to authenticate every route unless I add the NotAuthenticated attribute on every class. You say it is doable today Josh - but how?

Robert,

The way that the configuration aspect of FubuMVC.Authentication is right now is flawed and non-functional (the Utah guys stumbled into it). I'm actually working on that very thing this morning so that my team and our other Utah teams can start using that Bottle.

Give me a couple hours and I'll have an update for the list. The signature is going to change though.
