The intention was to make integration of LP and a consumer as painless as possible for developers. I was aware of launchpad-request-token in launchpadlib, but wanted to both generate settings which could be copied directly (e.g. to local/setting.py in the case of SSO) and avoid browser interaction. -- https://code.launchpad.net/~blr/launchpad/generate-access-token-script/+merge/299086 Your team Launchpad code reviewers is subscribed to branch lp:launchpad. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-reviewers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-reviewers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
