OAuth Init supports several command-line flags to customize its behavior. All flags have both short and long forms for convenience.

​
Available Flags

​
Help Flag

Display usage information and available options. 
oauth-init --help
oauth-init -h
Output: 
Usage: oauth-init [options]

Options:
  -h, --help     Show this help message
  -q, --quiet    Reduce output verbosity
  -n, --no-open  Don't open browser URLs automatically

Examples:
  oauth-init              # Run interactive setup
  oauth-init --quiet       # Run with minimal output
  oauth-init --no-open     # Get URLs but don't open them

​
Quiet Mode

Reduce output verbosity for minimal console output. 
oauth-init --quiet
oauth-init -q
Use cases:
  • CI/CD pipelines where minimal output is preferred
  • Automated scripts where you only want essential information
  • Environments with limited console space

​
No Open Flag

Prevent automatic browser opening for OAuth URLs. 
oauth-init --no-open
oauth-init -n
Use cases:
  • Headless environments without a browser
  • Remote SSH sessions
  • Docker containers
  • When you prefer to manually copy and paste URLs

​
Combining Flags

You can combine multiple flags in a single command: 
# Run in quiet mode without opening browser
oauth-init --quiet --no-open

# Using short form
oauth-init -q -n

​
Examples

​
Standard Interactive Setup

oauth-init
Runs the full interactive setup with normal output and automatic browser opening.

​
Minimal Output Setup

oauth-init --quiet
Runs the setup with reduced console output, showing only essential information.

​
Manual URL Setup

oauth-init --no-open
Provides OAuth URLs in the console without automatically opening them in your browser. Useful for remote environments or when you want more control over the process.

​
CI/CD Environment

oauth-init -q -n
Combines quiet mode and no-open flags for automated environments where you don’t want verbose output or browser interactions.
