Password protect Bookdown document

I want to use R Bookdown to create a technical description document that should be shared with other people. However is should not be visible for everyone.

Is there an easy way to publish an Bookdown document online having it password protected?

There are many possibilities. To name a few:

  • If you publish your book to bookdown.org, there is an option that allows you to make your book private and share it with specific collaborators (this is free).
  • You can publish to netlify.com and password protect your site (this is not a free feature).
  • You can host your book on your own server, and configure your server software (e.g. Apache/Ngnix/...) to password protect the book.
