Enum Principal 

pub enum Principal {
    Anonymous,
    User(String),
}

The identity a request is made on behalf of.

This is one possible authorization context (Cx) for a Policy; a server that extracts a username from a reverse-proxy header would authorize against a Principal.

Variants

Anonymous

No authenticated identity — used when no credentials are present, e.g. behind a proxy that does not forward an identity header.

User(String)

A named user identity, typically the value of a forwarded-user header.
