asciinema-auth(1)

okay bestie, welcome to asciinema-auth(1) — straight outta the General Commands Manual, and we’re here to authenticate this CLI with an asciinema server account. it’s giving “link your local terminal to your account” energy, and honestly? iconic. 💅✨

💖 NAME

asciinema-auth — authenticate this CLI with an asciinema server account. like, get your local setup linked up, ykwim? 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS

asciinema auth [--server-url] [-q|--quiet] [-h|--help]

🌸 DESCRIPTION

authenticate with an asciinema server. simple as that, bestie. 💖

this creates a user account link between your local CLI and an asciinema server account. it’s optional for uploading with the upload command, but it’s required for remote streaming with the stream and session commands. so if you’re trying to stream remotely, this is not a drill. 🌈🔥

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• --server-url=URL — specify a custom asciinema server URL for authenticating with self-hosted servers. use the base server URL, e.g. https://asciinema.example.com. this can also be set via the environment variable ASCIINEMA_SERVER_URL or the config file option server.url. if no server URL is configured via this option, environment variable, or config file, you’ll be prompted to choose one (defaulting to asciinema.org), which will be saved as a default. cute + configurable, we love to see it. 💾💖
• -q, --quiet — suppress diagnostic messages and progress indicators. only error messages will be displayed. very “keep it quiet, i’m busy” of you. 🤫💅
• -h, --help — print help (see a summary with '-h'). yes, the -h version gives you the summary — compact and helpful, iykyk. 🎀
