goit

Get a OIDC token from your terminal.

Overview

goit is a tool to quickly get a OpenID Connect token from your terminal, e.g. to use it for API authentication.

Installation

Static binaries are available on GitHub releases.

On Linux, you can install them like so:

$ curl -L -o /tmp/goit "https://github.com/pojntfx/goit/releases/latest/download/goit.linux-$(uname -m)"
$ sudo install /tmp/goit /usr/local/bin

On macOS, you can use the following:

$ curl -L -o /tmp/goit "https://github.com/pojntfx/goit/releases/latest/download/goit.darwin-$(uname -m)"
$ sudo install /tmp/goit /usr/local/bin

On Windows, the following should work (using PowerShell as administrator):

PS> Invoke-WebRequest https://github.com/pojntfx/goit/releases/latest/download/goit.windows-x86_64.exe -OutFile \Windows\System32\goit.exe

You can find binaries for more operating systems and architectures on GitHub releases.

Usage

You can get the OIDC token by running goit; if you have a browser available, it will launch it for you to authorize, and if not will print an authorization URL in the console:

$ goit --oidc-client-id='Ab7OLrQibhXUzKHGWYDFieLa2KqZmFzb' --oidc-issuer='https://pojntfx.eu.auth0.com/' --oidc-redirect-url='http://localhost:11337'

It is also possible to export the token to a environment variable like so:

$ export OIDC_CLIENT_ID='Ab7OLrQibhXUzKHGWYDFieLa2KqZmFzb' OIDC_ISSUER='https://pojntfx.eu.auth0.com/' OIDC_REDIRECT_URL='http://localhost:11337'
$ export API_KEY="$(goit)"

$ echo "${API_KEY}"
