[Feature request] Add option for passing user credentials #10

Closed 74naUM2EMP closed 3 years ago

I'm trying to call KIT-ILIAS-downloader multiple times in a script, but I don’t believe there is way to pass credentials automatically. Currently you have to provide credentials every time (I don’t like using .iliaslogin because it saves the credentials to the disk). With an extra option these could be reused.

Example: KIT-ILIAS-downloader -j 8 -U “$user” -P “$pass” -o “$dir”

You can make the .iliaslogin file a symbolic link to a file in /tmp or some other RAM-backed storage.

Still, I'll implement your suggested options soon. They are more convenient to use in a script.

Implemented in 0.2.16.
