Resolve "Allow use of environment variable for storing access token" (!26) · Merge requests · OSDU Software / OSDU Community Utilities / Data Loading Toolings / Wellbore DDMS Data Loader · GitLab

Starting on April 8th, The Open Group will require Two Factor Authentication for all GitLab users. For instructions on setting up 2FA, see the Knowledge Article or GitLab Documentation. Note in particular that any HTTPS clones will require the use of a Personal Access Token (rather than a user’s password) once 2FA is enabled.

Niall McDaid requested to merge 20-allow-use-of-environment-variables into main Nov 09, 2021

Closes #20 (closed)

I have removed the need for the base url, token and path to config file to be set as an option for each command.

base_url is now set within the configuration file
OSDUTOKEN and CONFIGPATH environment variables are now used as default values if the user does not provide one

I have also added a validation check to catch the case in which a user has not set an environment variable or provided the value as a command option.
