Working with multiple Linode accounts

[HedgeMage]

I have a feature request for you: I want an easy way to work with multiple Linode accounts. I hate logging in and out of the web panel constantly (well, I prefer CLI to web in general, but this makes it worse) because I manage Linodes for multiple organizations. You'd have this lowly HedgeMage's deepest gratitude if there were an easy way to set up the Linode CLI client to easily manage Linodes across multiple accounts.

Yes, I realize that I could write a wrapper script to run Linode CLI commands with different api keys specified as needed, concatenate the output of, e.g. list from different accounts, but really, do we need another layer of stuff?

• 1 for this request. I manage multiple linode accounts. How about allowing for multiple .config files which could be an optional parameter for the cli?

👍 Yes, this is very much needed.
A very common scenario: System engineer working for multiple companies, meaning multiple servers, SSH keys and Linode accounts.
Heroku has a great add-on to handle multiple accounts from the command line: https://github.com/ddollar/heroku-accounts
