gets OIDC access token from oidc-agent

Synopsis

oidc-token [OPTION...] ACCOUNT_SHORTNAME | ISSUER_URL

Description

oidc-token -- A client for oidc-agent for getting OIDC access tokens.

General:

--auth-header,  --auth

Returns the token included in a http authorization header for usage with e.g. curl or httpie.

-a,  --all

Return all available information (token, issuer, expiration time). Each value is printed in one line.

--bearer

Returns the token in the bearer format that is suitable as the value for an http authorization header

-c,  --env

This will get all available information (same as -a), but will print shell commands that export environment variables (default names).  The result for this option is the same as for using 'oidc-token -o -i -e'. With the -o, -i and -e options the name of each environment variable can be changed.

-e,  --expires-at[=OIDC_EXP]

Return the expiration time for the requested access token. If neither -i nor -o is set and OIDC_EXP is not passed, the expiration time is printed to stdout. Otherwise shell commands are printed that will export the value into an environment variable. The name of this variable can be set with OIDC_EXP.

-f,  --force-new

Forces that a new access token is issued and returned.

-i,  --issuer[=OIDC_ISS]

Return the issuer associated with the requested access token. If neither -e nor -o is set and OIDC_ISS is not passed, the issuer is printed to stdout. Otherwise shell commands are printed that will export the value into an environment variable. The name of this variable can be set with OIDC_ISS.

-o,  --token[=OIDC_AT]

Return the requested access token. If neither -i nor -e is set and OIDC_AT is not passed, the token is printed to stdout (Same behaviour as without this option). Otherwise shell commands are printed that will export the value into an environment variable. The name of this variable can be set with OIDC_AT.

-t,  --time=SECONDS

Minimum number of seconds the access token should be valid

Advanced:

--aud=AUDIENCE

Audience for the requested access token. Multiple audiences can be provided as a space separated list

--id-token

Returns an id-token instead of an access token. This option is meant as a development tool. ID-tokens should not be passed as authorization to resources.

-m,  --mytoken[=PROFILE], --MT[=PROFILE]

Returns a mytoken instead of an access token. To specify the properties of the issued mytoken pass a mytoken profile. This option can only be used with account shortnames not with issuer urls.

--name=NAME

This option is intended for other applications / scripts that call oidc-token to obtain an access token. NAME is the name of this application and might be displayed to the user.

-s,  --scope=SCOPE

Scope to be requested for the requested access token. Multiple scopes can be provided as a space separated list or by using the option multiple times.

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.
