plakar-login

NAME

plakar-login — Authenticate to Plakar services

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The plakar login command initiates an authentication flow with the Plakar platform. Login is optional for most plakar commands but required to enable certain services, such as alerting. See also plakar-services(1).

Only one authentication method may be specified per invocation: the -email and -github options are mutually exclusive. If neither is provided, -github is assumed.

The options are as follows:

-email email

Send a login link to the specified email address. Clicking the link in the received email will authenticate plakar.

-github

Use GitHub OAuth to authenticate. A browser will be spawned to initiate the OAuth flow unless -no-spawn is specified.

-no-spawn

Do not automatically open a browser window for authentication flows.

EXAMPLES

Start a login via email:

$ plakar login -email user@example.com

Authenticate via GitHub (default, opens browser):

$ plakar login
