Library and CLI tool for retrieving PyPI project tokens
Project description
pypi-token-client
Library and CLI tool for retrieving PyPI project tokens.
Purpose
PyPI allows the creation of per-project tokens but doesn't currently have an API to do so. While integration with CI providers is planned, apparently there is no plan for an API that would allow one to create tokens from a local development machine.
This tool seeks to provide a client exposing this functionality anyway by whatever means necessary.
Operating principle
Because there is no API and I'm also too lazy to try and figure out the exact sequence of HTTP requests one would have to make to simulate what happens when requesting tokens on the PyPI website, for now this tool just uses Playwright to automate performing the necessary steps in an actual browser.
This might be overkill and brittle but it works for now 🤷
Installation
pip3 install pypi-token-client
# install the necessary browsers for Playwright
playwright install
