cargo-login --- Log in to a registry
cargo login
[options] [token] [--
args]
This command will run a credential provider to save a token so that commands that require authentication, such as cargo-publish(1), will be automatically authenticated.
All the arguments following the two dashes (--
) are passed to the credential provider.
For the default cargo:token
credential provider, the token is saved in $CARGO_HOME/credentials.toml
. CARGO_HOME
defaults to .cargo
in your home directory.
If a registry has a credential-provider specified, it will be used. Otherwise, the providers from the config value registry.global-credential-providers
will be attempted, starting from the end of the list.
If the token argument is not specified, it will be read from stdin.
The API token for crates.io may be retrieved from https://crates.io/me.
Take care to keep the token secret, it should not be shared with anyone else.
See the reference for details on environment variables that Cargo reads.
