OIDC token agent
Synopsis
oidc-agent [OPTION...]
Description
oidc-agent -- An agent to manage oidc token
General:
- --always-allow-idtoken Always allow id-token requests without manual
approval by the user.
- -a, --socket-path=PATH, --bind-address=PATH
Create the UNIX-domain used for communicating with the agent at this PATH. The default is '$TMPDIR/oidc-XXXXXX/oidc-agent.<ppid>'. Use 'XXXXXX' as the last six characters of a directory in the path to substitute them with random characters.
- -c, --confirm
Requires user confirmation when an application requests an access token for any loaded configuration
- --json
Print agent socket and pid as JSON instead of bash.
- -k, --kill
Kill the current agent (given by the OIDCD_PID environment variable)
- --no-autoload
Disables the autoload feature: A token request cannot load the needed configuration. You have to do it with oidc-add.
- --no-autoreauthenticate, --no-auto-reauthenticate
Disables the automatic re-authentication feature: If a refresh token expired the re-atuhentiacte is not started automatically; you have to do it manually.
- --no-scheme
This option applies only when the authorization code flow is used. oidc-agent will not use a custom uri scheme redirect.
- --no-webserver
This option applies only when the authorization code flow is used. oidc-agent will not start a webserver. Redirection to oidc-gen through a custom uri scheme redirect uri and 'manual' redirect is possible.
- --pid-file=PATH
If given the pid is written to this file.
- --quiet
Disable informational messages to stdout.
- --restart-on-update
Enables automatic restart of the agent if its binary changes.
- -t, --lifetime=TIME
Sets a default value in seconds for the maximum lifetime of account configurations added to the agent. A lifetime specified for an account configuration with oidc-add overwrites this default value. Without this option the default maximum lifetime is forever.
- --with-group[=GROUP_NAME]
This option allows that applications running under another user can access the agent. The user running the other application and the user running the agent have to be in the specified group. If no GROUP_NAME is specified the default is 'oidc-agent'.
Verbosity:
- -d, --console
Runs oidc-agent on the console, without daemonizing.
- -g, --debug
Sets the log level to DEBUG.
- --log-stderr
Additionally prints log messages to stderr.
- --status
Connects to the currently running agent and prints status information about it.
Help:
- -?, --help
Give this help list
- --usage
Give a short usage message
- -V, --version
Print program version
Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional for any corresponding short options.
Files
- $TMPDIR/oidc-XXXXXX/oidc-agent.<ppid>
UNIX-domain sockets used to contain the connection to the agent.
