It is usable via\nthe command line on systems that have `Python `__\ninstalled but also requires a registered account. If you are unfamiliar\nwith other aspects of the Longaccess service a good place to start is\n\"`What is\nLongaccess? `__\\ \"\n\nInstallation\n------------\n\nWe have binary packages for certain platforms, like MacOS X, Windows 8\n64-bit, Linux and FreeBSD. For more information see the `Longaccess\ndownloads page `__. For other\nplatforms or purposes you can download or clone the source repository,\ncreate a `virtualenv `__ if needed, and\ninstall the client via ``pip``. E.g.:\n\n::\n\n pip install https://github.com/longaccess/longaccess-client/tarball/master\n\nNote that currently, certain third-party libraries are required in\nmodified form. These special dependencies are described in\n`requirements.txt <>`__ and can be automatically installed if the\nfollowing command is given:\n\n::\n\n pip install -r requirements.txt\n\nDependencies\n------------\n\nThe prebuilt binary packages are self-contained, i.e. they do not have\nany hard external dependencies. There is however a soft dependency on an\nexternal tool to securely delete files from the filesystem, see below\nfor more information. When installing from source most dependencies are\nautomatically installable via ``pip``. On some platforms the\ninstallation might require manually installing development packages,\ne.g. on [Fedora Linux][] you might need to install the ``python2-devel``\npackage. Additional packages, like ``thrift`` and ``twisted`` are\nnecessary for the RPC server (used to communicate with GUI frontends).\nLast, install the ```python-zipstream`` <>`__ package to enable\non-the-fly operations, requiring less temporary space on disk.\n\nUsage\n-----\n\nAfter installation the program is invoked as ``lacli``. Run it with no\narguments to see a synopsis of supported usages. In short, there are\nfour basic commands:\n\n- ``lacli login`` set up credentials to use with other commands\n- ``lacli archive`` helps you manage archives\n- ``lacli certificate`` helps you manage certificates\n- ``lacli capsules`` let's you view your available capsules\n- ``lacli server`` runs the RPC server. You normally do not need this.\n\nAlternatively one may run the program interactively by running\n``lacli -i``.\n\nThe ``lacli`` command supports certain global options which you can see\nin the aforementioned synopsis. The only required argument however is\nthe authentication parameters which we discuss in the next section.\n\nAuthentication\n--------------\n\nIn order to use the service you must first have a username and password\nfor the service. You can provide them to the program in two ways:\n\n1. as global arguments, e.g. ``lacli -u user -p pass archive list ...``.\n If a password is not provided you will be prompted for one.\n2. as entries in your ``.netrc`` file. This way you will not have to\n provide them everytime (but you should keep your ``.netrc`` safe).\n3. by using the ``login`` command. If authentication is succesfull you\n will be prompted to save the credentials in ``.netrc`` as above for\n future use. If interactive the credentials will be used for\n subsequent commands.\n\nNetrc\n~~~~~\n\nThe correct ``machine`` to add to ``.netrc`` for the service in\nproduction at Longaccess is ``www.longaccess.com``. For example you need\nthis entry:\n\n::\n\n machine www.longaccess.com login user@domain.com password somep4ss\n\nExample usage\n-------------\n\nAn example scenario:\n\n::\n\n $ lacli login your@email.com\n Password:\n authentication succesfull as your@email.com\n Save credentials? y\n $ lacli archive list\n No available archives.\n $ lacli archive create /home/kouk/toread -t documents\n Encrypting..\n archive prepared\n $ lacli archive list\n 001 36MiB documents LOCAL \n $ lacli archive upload 1\n /home/kouk/.longaccess/data/2013-10-18-documents.zip.crypt : |###################| ETA: 0:00:00 349.66 MB/s\n Upload finished, waiting for verification\n Press Ctrl-C to check manually later\n status: completed\n Certificate 68-H1BK saved.\n Use lacli certificate list to see your certificates, or lacli certificate --help for more options\n done.\n $ lacli archive list\n 001 36MiB documents COMPLETE 68-H1BK\n $ lacli certificate list\n 68-H1BK 36MiB documents\n $ lacli certificate print 68-H1BK\n Created files:\n longaccess-68-H1BK.html\n $\n\nSecure removal\n--------------\n\nWhen removing archives and certificates from the disk the program\nsupports `secure deletion `__ through\nan external program. In case a suitable removal program cannot be\nfound\\* the client will complain and give further instructions.\nCurrently we automatically support the following tools, if they are\navailable on the system path:\n\n- `srm `__ (Mac, Unix)\n- `shred `__ (Unix)\n- `sdelete `__\n (Windows, proprietary)\n- `Eraser `__ (Windows, open-source)\n\n*\\* or one has not been provided via the optional argument to the\n``delete`` command.*", "description_content_type": null, "docs_url": null, "download_url": "UNKNOWN", "downloads": { "last_day": -1, "last_month": -1, "last_week": -1 }, "home_page": "http://github.com/longaccess/longaccess-client/", "keywords": null, "license": "Apache", "maintainer": null, "maintainer_email": null, "name": "lacli", "package_url": "https://pypi.org/project/lacli/", "platform": "UNKNOWN", "project_url": "https://pypi.org/project/lacli/", "project_urls": { "Download": "UNKNOWN", "Homepage": "http://github.com/longaccess/longaccess-client/" }, "release_url": "https://pypi.org/project/lacli/0.2.6.1/", "requires_dist": null, "requires_python": null, "summary": "The Long Access client", "version": "0.2.6.1" }, "last_serial": 1085344, "releases": { "0.2.3": [ { "comment_text": "", "digests": { "md5": "28a135d910058379c814b2f9bf196217", "sha256": "af9aeb59ce5e6d695bf9658fdc17dc0354c9ea8a734d145ee99b7ae3ae581524" }, "downloads": -1, "filename": "lacli-0.2.3.tar.gz", "has_sig": false, "md5_digest": "28a135d910058379c814b2f9bf196217", "packagetype": "sdist", "python_version": "source", "requires_python": null, "size": 371754, "upload_time": "2014-03-04T13:36:39", "url": "https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/e0/81/c3e7654ae6848eb2ca6df1842f99a92142141f3bc7bb8cf52ad677a77221/lacli-0.2.3.tar.gz" } ], "0.2.6.1": [ { "comment_text": "", "digests": { "md5": "280ea6ae692ee52e4b3febbb044e976c", "sha256": "0515a7f2893704935e2f132f48dc479263a2309e274fffa1aea5078f3f5309ef" }, "downloads": -1, "filename": "lacli-0.2.6.1.tar.gz", "has_sig": false, "md5_digest": "280ea6ae692ee52e4b3febbb044e976c", "packagetype": "sdist", "python_version": "source", "requires_python": null, "size": 264266, "upload_time": "2014-05-08T13:37:22", "url": "https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/dd/e2/16ad5d1c4e6b786fe5e54802426640d811f71c56c0a99c5c685c271bd282/lacli-0.2.6.1.tar.gz" } ] }, "urls": [ { "comment_text": "", "digests": { "md5": "280ea6ae692ee52e4b3febbb044e976c", "sha256": "0515a7f2893704935e2f132f48dc479263a2309e274fffa1aea5078f3f5309ef" }, "downloads": -1, "filename": "lacli-0.2.6.1.tar.gz", "has_sig": false, "md5_digest": "280ea6ae692ee52e4b3febbb044e976c", "packagetype": "sdist", "python_version": "source", "requires_python": null, "size": 264266, "upload_time": "2014-05-08T13:37:22", "url": "https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/dd/e2/16ad5d1c4e6b786fe5e54802426640d811f71c56c0a99c5c685c271bd282/lacli-0.2.6.1.tar.gz" } ] }
