implements a command that will retrieve authorisation cookies for a bamboo hr session. These cookies can then be used in subsequent scripting
You must install python-selenium and a suitable driver from AUR (chromedriver)
The command retrieves credentials from password store which should be installed and configured properly
- Arrange for the dependencies in
Pipfileto be installed.
$ cd ${REPO_HOME}
$ python3 setup.py installin package/arch you will find a PKGBUILD file that will build a
package suitable for installing with pacman (or more likely a wrapper
around pacman, like Yay, that allows
installation of AUR packages)
$ cd ${REPO_HOME}/package/arch
# Install AUR package requirements, which are not installed by makepkg -s
$ yay -S python-selenium chromedriver
# Will install dependencies that can be found via pacman
# This will pull the latest version of this repo and build a pacman package,
# with version related to the git `SHA`
$ makepkg -s .
# Install the package you just built
$ yay -U bamboodle-git*.tar.zstRelevant however you invoke the tool.
# If you have a custom domain (can also use -d a-company.bamboohr.com command line option)
$ export BAMBOOHR_DOMAIN=a-company.bamboohr.com
# Store your credentials in password-store
$ pass insert <username>/${BAMBOOHR_DOMAIN:-bamboohr.com}$ python3 src/bambdoodle/cookie.py -v <username>
