ente-io / cli Goto Github PK

Current challenges in providing single static binary for CLI.

Based on my understanding,

• The lib-sodium library uses CGO [1] (that enables calling C code from Go)
• CGO brings lot of complexity and unknowns if we want to create binaries for different packages [2]
• To compile static binary for various OS/Arch, we will need to spin-off VM/Docker images[3], install the libsodium and other relevant pkg and then create the binary.
• Users may still need to install the corresponding libsodium pkg on their relevant machine. [need to investigate

Alternative Approaches:

• Switch to https://github.com/ArteMisc/libgodium [Evaluating now]
• Explore https://github.com/ebitengine/purego/

Hello!

Trying to get my account added and running into 401 errors. Wondering if there are limitations that prevent me from being able to use this feature. This is what I get when I run the account add command from within my container:

/ # ./ente-cli account add
Enter app type (default: photos):
Use default app type: photos
Enter export directory: /data
Enter email address: ***email on account***
Enter password: ***copy paste password***
Please wait authenticating...
2023/10/25 16:28:38 failed to verify status 401 with err:
Enter password:

Is there a character limit to the length of the password? (mine is over 60 characters) Special Characters?

I also have 2-factor enabled on my account, could that be an issue?

Maybe the feature is not available yet for us users as it's too new? :)

I can reach out via email or discord if you would like more private details.

As mentioned, I am using a docker container to run this if you think it might be relevant.

Thank you for looking at my issue. I am very excited about this feature.

It would be pretty practical we could reuse CLI libraries to create rclone ente backend.
