class AuthenticationMiddleware:
    """Middleware that authenticates requests using configured authentication provider.

    This middleware:
    1. Extracts the Bearer token from the Authorization header
    2. Uses the configured auth provider to validate the token
    3. Extracts user attributes from the provider's response
    4. Makes these attributes available to the route handlers for access control

    The middleware supports multiple authentication providers through the AuthProvider interface:
    - Kubernetes: Validates tokens against the Kubernetes API server
    - Custom: Validates tokens against a custom endpoint

    Authentication Request Format for Custom Auth Provider:
    ```json
    {
        "api_key": "the-api-key-extracted-from-auth-header",
        "request": {
            "path": "/models/list",
            "headers": {
                "content-type": "application/json",
                "user-agent": "..."
                // All headers except Authorization
            },
            "params": {
                "limit": ["100"],
                "offset": ["0"]
                // Query parameters as key -> list of values
            }
        }
    }
    ```

    Expected Auth Endpoint Response Format:
    ```json
    {
        "access_attributes": {    // Structured attribute format
            "roles": ["admin", "user"],
            "teams": ["ml-team", "nlp-team"],
            "projects": ["llama-3", "project-x"],
            "namespaces": ["research"]
        },
        "message": "Optional message about auth result"
    }
    ```

    Token Validation:
    Each provider implements its own token validation logic:
    - Kubernetes: Uses TokenReview API to validate service account tokens
    - Custom: Sends token to custom endpoint for validation

    Attribute-Based Access Control:
    The attributes returned by the auth provider are used to determine which
    resources the user can access. Resources can specify required attributes
    using the access_attributes field. For a user to access a resource:

    1. All attribute categories specified in the resource must be present in the user's attributes
    2. For each category, the user must have at least one matching value

    If the auth provider doesn't return any attributes, the user will only be able to
    access resources that don't have access_attributes defined.
