app.use((req, res, next) => {

  // authentication middleware

  const auth = {login: 'yourlogin', password: 'yourpassword'} // change this

  // parse login and password from headers
  const b64auth = (req.headers.authorization || '').split(' ')[1] || ''
  const [login, password] = Buffer.from(b64auth, 'base64').toString().split(':')

  // Verify login and password are set and correct
  if (login && password && login === auth.login && password === auth.password) {
    // Access granted...
    return next()

  // Access denied...
  res.set('WWW-Authenticate', 'Basic realm="401"') // change this
  res.status(401).send('Authentication required.') // custom message

var securedRoutes = require('express').Router()

securedRoutes.use(/* auth-middleware from above */)
securedRoutes.get('path1', /* ... */) 

app.use('/secure', securedRoutes)
app.get('public', /* ... */)

// example.com/public       // no-auth
// example.com/secure/path1 // requires auth

  // Access granted...
  res.send('hello world')
  // or call next() if you use it as middleware (as snippet #1)
