I want to be able to add an authorizer when calling the addRoutes method. Similar to what is done in the apigateway construct: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-apigateway.MethodOptions.html

Use Case

There are no straightforward to add an authorizer on HTTP API routes. This is an important security feature. Workaround are already available in blogposts: https://dev.to/martzcodes/token-authorizers-with-apigatewayv2-tricks-apigwv1-doesn-t-want-you-to-know-41jn

Proposed Solution

One solution would be to add an authorizer property on the addRoutes method:

const api = new HttpApi(this, 'Api', { .. });
const authorizer = new CfnAuthorizer(this, 'ApiAuthorizer', { ... });

api.addRoutes({
  path: '/route',
  methods: [ HttpMethod.GET ],
  integration: new LambdaProxyIntegration({ handler: Example }),
  authorizer: authorizer,
});
