Authentication service — proxies CLI credential exchange to the configured CSM/OCHAMI backend.
The CLI never talks to Keycloak directly; it POSTs username+password
to manta-server /api/v1/auth/token, which calls
backend.get_api_token on the user’s behalf and returns the CSM
bearer token. validate_api_token exposes a lightweight
“is-this-token-still-valid” probe the CLI can call before sending
a long-running request that would otherwise fail mid-flight.
Functions§
- get_
api_ token - Exchange
username+passwordfor a CSM bearer token via the site’s configured backend. - validate_
