login not working

[pvinis]

Maybe a problem with password escaping or something? I have spaces and stuff in the pass.

@pvinis Thanks for the issue!

I think there are a couple issues here.

• The error handling isn't great. I had a PR to address that in [WIP] Add error handling to login command #16
• You might be running into a 2FA prompt and the CLI doesn't handle that right now

Instead of fixing the existing login command, I'm actually interested in attempting an OAuth approach instead. Might spent some time on that during Future Friday today.

Sounds good! I don't have 2fa on that account if that matters.

What I wanted was to use this to login and get an access token and a user id in CI, so it might be useful to have a way to do this non-interactively, like artsy login --email [email protected] --password "bla wow a password" or something.

What I ended up doing is this instead for now: https://github.com/artsy/eigen/pull/4462/files#diff-49670b61f49e73c606f80b3cd64a70bf584e5b13d7c81a30486fbda739543fd4R11-R28

Ahh, that's a good point! We should be able to accommodate that as well 👍

I've seen some similar commands take in the password from stdin:

echo "password" | artsy login --email [email protected]
