How can I password-protect my /sidekiq route (i.e. require authentication for the Sidekiq::Web tool)?

Question

I am using sidekiq in my rails application. By Default, Sidekiq can be accessed by anybody by appending \"/sidekiq\" after the url. I want to password protect / authenticate onl

Sorry to late to the party, but Sidekiq's wiki recommends the following for Devise:

To allow any authenticated User:

# config/routes.rb
authenticate :user do
  mount Sidekiq::Web => '/sidekiq'
end

To restrict access to User.admin?

# config/routes.rb
authenticate :user, lambda { |u| u.admin? } do
  mount Sidekiq::Web => '/sidekiq'
end

This wiki post also has many other security schemes.

This was tested using Rails 5.1.3, Devise 4.3 and Sidekiq 5.0
