httpie / httpie-ntlm Goto Github PK

If you don't have requests-ntlm installed system-wide, always fails with "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests_ntlm'" since the plugin path (where requests-ntlm is installed) is not loaded when calling get_auth. This problem is fixed in the repo, but the PyPi package predates that.

I have updated the packaging to be a little slicker. In case its needed, I am willing to help with the maintenance of the snap package at least for the first few months.

After running pip install httpie-ntlm and running http --help i got the following:

Authentication:
--auth USER[:PASS], -a USER[:PASS]
If only the username is provided (-a username), HTTPie will prompt
for the password.

--auth-type {basic,digest}
The authentication mechanism to be used. Defaults to "basic".

  "basic": Basic HTTP auth
  "digest": Digest HTTP auth

Seems like i'm not able to see the ntlm option here.

Any thoughts?

This library relies on https://github.com/requests/requests-ntlm/ which relies on https://github.com/jborean93/ntlm-auth which is now deprecated. ntlm-auth provides examples and asks users to use https://github.com/jborean93/pyspnego instead.

HTTPie allows plugins to opt-in to loading credentials from .netrc. (httpie/cli#718) by setting netrc_parse = True in the plugin. I'd like to request that this plugin enable that feature, so that we can manage API credentials per-domain.
