Generate a Library Token

The CLI needs to be authenticated in order to upload files. See here how to generate a Library token.

(optional) Store the token locally

Instead of having to provide the token each time the cli is used, there is the option to store the token locally.

Run the following command to do so:

curiosity-cli store-token -s http://<SERVER_URL>/api/ -t <TOKEN>
