✨ glab-auth-logout ✨

okay so real talk, this page lives in the glab manual (section 1, iykyk) and it's literally the "bye bestie" command 💅 like it's the logout page. tiny page, huge main character energy.

🎀 NAME 🎀

glab-auth-logout — log out from a GitLab instance. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

glab auth logout [flags]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so you wanna dip 👋 this command logs you out of a GitLab instance, no cap. the credentials for the instance you specify get removed from two places:

  • the global configuration file — default path is ~/.config/glab-cli/config.yml just so u know exactly where the receipts live 📄
  • the operating system's keyring — but only if a token was actually stored there in the first place 💀

so yeah, it scrubs both spots. squeaky clean. periodt. ✨

💜 OPTIONS 💜

  • --hostname="" — the hostname of the GitLab instance 🏠 (like, which GitLab are we logging out of, bestie). defaults to an empty string, so if you don't tell it, it's not gonna guess.

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these aren't even this command's options, they're the family hand-me-downs 👑

  • -h, --help[=false] — show help for this command 📖 (defaults to false, as is tradition)

⭐ EXAMPLE ⭐

# Log out of a specific instance
glab auth logout --hostname gitlab.example.com

see how it's giving "specify the hostname, then leave" 🚪💨 iconic behaviour honestly.

ngl there's nothing dangerous on this page, but like… if you log out, you're logged out?? so maybe don't do it mid-deploy 😭🙈
