mariocj89 / github-token Goto Github PK

If a user is using the util from multiple computers it breaks as it tries to reuse the same token ID

Another option is to add an option when creating the token to add a random sufix.

First check if it is possible to retrieve a token given user/password. If it is that should be used rather than generating a token per host

This needs to be still app specific as you dont want to have multiple apps using the same token

The final objective being the follwing api:

import github_token
token = github_token.get(app_name="my_cool_app", github_api="XXX")

#or 

token = github_token.create(app_name="my_cool_app")

This assumes an interactive app (that can overriden via env vars)

This allows to store all the gothub tokens in a single repository and retrieve them as necessary.
An advante of this is to allow to use github apps with multiple github api endpoints

Given a token, verify what privileges it has assigned.
