Fetch your secrets

Execute the following command to fetch your secrets into .env file of the current directory:

Where

• {PROJECT_NAME} – the name of your project
• {STATE} – the state of this project (ex. production)

Supported options

• -t or --token – forces using specified security token. By default tawbar CLI uses the current device token generated by login command, but specifying a security token as a parameter might be useful when running fetch command on remote machines.
• -p or --path – saves secrets into specified path. By default tawbar CLI saves secrets into .env file of the current directory

tawbar fetch my-project production -p /usr/me/my-project/production.env -t KXJKB2yDR3OTLGmjAkiM_DF4add
