nextstrain authorization

usage: nextstrain authorization [-h] [<remote-url>]

Produce an Authorization header appropriate for the web API of nextstrain.org (and other remotes).

This is a development tool unnecessary for normal usage. It’s useful for directly making API requests to nextstrain.org (and other remotes) with curl or similar commands. For example:

curl -si https://nextstrain.org/whoami \
    --header "Accept: application/json" \
    --header @<(nextstrain authorization)

Exits with an error if no one is logged in.

positional arguments

<remote-url>

Remote URL for which to produce an Authorization header. Expects URLs like the remote source/destination URLs used by the nextstrain remote family of commands. Only the domain name (technically, the origin) of the URL is required/used, but a full URL may be specified.

options

-h, --help
