Create and load persistent GitHub authentication tokens for command-line apps

Package Exports

  • ghauth

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (ghauth) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

ghauth

Create and load persistent GitHub authentication tokens for command-line apps

NPM

Example usage

const ghauth = require('ghauth')
    , authOptions = {
           // ~/.config/awesome.json will store the token
          configName : 'awesome'

          // (optional) whatever GitHub auth scopes you require
        , scopes     : [ 'user' ]

          // (optional) saved with the token on GitHub
        , note       : 'This token is for my awesome app'

          // (optional)
        , userAgent  : 'My Awesome App'
      }

ghauth(authOptions, function (err, authData) {
  console.log(authData)
})

Will run something like this:

$ node awesome.js

GitHub username: rvagg
GitHub password: ✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔
GitHub OTP (optional): 669684

{ user: 'rvagg',
  token: '24d5dee258c64aef38a66c0c5eca459c379901c2' }

Because the token is persisted, the next time you run it there will be no prompts:

$ node awesome.js

{ user: 'rvagg',
  token: '24d5dee258c64aef38a66c0c5eca459c379901c2' }
