I expected that Dancer2 would get it from the environment hash %ENV.
request->user is sugar for request->env->{REMOTE_USER}
i.e. its passed through to Dancer2 as an entry in the psgi $env hashref.
You may want to look at the code for some of the
Plack::Middleware::Auth::* modules to see how they populate REMOTE_USER
in the psgi env. (Those middleware are typically less that 100 lines.)
If you are using nginx, Apache or similar to do basic or digest auth
before using a reverse proxy to your app, the proxied request will NOT
contain the REMOTE_USER. You'll need to propagate the user in a custom
header.
