httpie-zign 0.1

Installation

$ pip install httpie-zign

You should now see zign under --auth-type in $ http --help output.

Usage

This plugin takes the Zign token name as the --auth username. The --auth password is completely ignored. You have to generate the named Zign OAuth 2 token before using HTTPie:

$ zign token -n mytok # generate named OAuth token "mytok"
$ http --auth-type=zign --auth=mytok: https://example.org
$ http --auth-type=zign -a mytok: https://example.org

You can set the default --auth-type=zign option in the ~/.httpie/config.json file for convenience:

$ echo '{"default_options": ["--auth-type=zign"]}' > ~/.httpie/config.json
$ http -a mytok: https://example.org # that's much shorter now :-)
