optk

A command line interface developer tool for creating OpenTok sessions and tokens.

Installation

npm install optk-cli -g

Usage

You can run optk -h to see a list of commands and their options.

Storing a key and secret

There are 3 ways to specify a key and secret when a command. They are listed in order of priority:

• command line parameters (-k, --key, -s, --secret)
• environment variables (OPTK_KEY, OPTK_SECRET)
• local .optk file (see below)

Priority

You can use any combination of the above, but note the priority of which values are read. For example:

$ OPTK_KEY=12345 OPTK_SECRET=abcdef optk session --key 67890

In the command above, the key specified as a command line parameter will override the key specified in the environment variable.

Using a local .optk file

You can create a file named .optk in your home directory (Mac OS X or Linux: ``~/.optk, Windows: $USERPROFILE/.optk`) to specify your key and secret.

The format of the file is the following:

key=KEYVALUE
secret=SECRETVALUE
