Override the httpauth Unauthorized Error

[EvilWatermelon]

If I access my actix web API without a Bearer token then I want to override the 401. Where can I do this?

I'm getting

content-length: 0  
date: Fri,03 May 2024 05:15:38 GMT  
www-authenticate: Bearer 

But I want to create my own error message

impl HttpError {
    pub fn new(
        cause: Option<String>,
        message: Option<String>,
        status_code: String,
        error_type: ErrorResponse
    ) -> Self {
        Self {
            cause,
            message,
            status_code,
            error_type
        }
    }
}

I updated one of the examples to show how optional auth works:
https://github.com/actix/actix-extras/blob/master/actix-web-httpauth/examples/middleware.rs

The main points are:

• use HttpAuthentication::with_fn(validator)
• have a validator signature that uses credentials: Option<BearerAuth> instead of credentials: BearerAuth.
