httpie-ovh-auth 0.1.0

OVH auth plugin for HTTPie.

Auth plugin for OVH API

Obtain API credentials

You can find URLs to create your application credentials (client id and secret) here: https://github.com/ovh/python-ovh#1-create-an-application

Then, you need to perform a customer key request and validation.

# Replace $OVH_CLIENT_ID with the appropriate value
# Add needed method and path in accessRules list
http -b post https://api.ovh.com/1.0/auth/credential X-Ovh-Application:$OVH_CLIENT_ID accessRules:='[{"method": "GET", "path": "/*"}]'
{
    "consumerKey": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
    "state": "pendingValidation",
    "validationUrl": "https://eu.api.ovh.com/auth/?credentialToken=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}

Visit validationUrl to validate your consumer key (you need to authenticate and choose an expiration delay).

Credentials in environment

Plugin can use environement variables OVH_CLIENT_ID, OVH_CLIENT_SECRET and OVH_CONSUMER_KEY to perform httpie authentication.

Rename auth.env.tpl to auth.env and insert your credentials.

Configure your environment before running httpie commands by sourcing this file:

source auth.env

Trigger OVH authentication with --auth-type parameter:

http -b --auth-type ovh https://api.ovh.com/1.0/me
