\fBmanage-credentials\fR is a tool to create (and manage) credentials which
11
are used to access Launchpad via the API.
14
Currently this tool can be used
15
to create a token with or without using the web UI. In the future, once
16
related methods are available through the API, this tool can also be used
17
to manage tokens in launchpad and on the users local machine.
20
Listed below are the command line options for requestsync:
23
Display a help message and exit.
27
.B \-e \-\-email <email>
28
Your email address as registered on Launchpad.
30
.B \-p \-\-password <password>
31
Your Launchpad password.
33
.B \-s \-\-service <edge|staging>
34
If we should use the edge or staging root of the Launchpad API.
37
Where to store the cache.
40
Which file we should save the credentials to. By default
41
\fBmanage-credentials\fR writes the credentials tokens to the
42
~/.cache/lp_credentials/ directory.
44
.B \-l \-\-level <number>
45
A number representing the access-level you wish to give to the new
46
Launchpad token. 0 is unauthorized, 1 is read public data, 2; write public data,
47
3; read private data and 4; write private data.
50
There are currently two ways of using \fBmanage-credentials\fR to get
53
1) manage-credentials create \-c CONSUMER \-\-level 2
56
This way shall open your webbrowser with a Launchpad login page.
59
2) manage-credentials create \-c CONSUMER \-\-level 2 \-\-password BOO \-\-email me@example.com
62
This is a hack, but it works and does not require a webbrowser .
65
If you intend to use manage-credentials for Ubuntu development (such as
66
the ubuntu-dev-tools package). Please by sure to run the following:
69
manage-credentials create \-c ubuntu-dev-tools \-l 2
