Managing alt sites

[Brin-o]

Hey, I am a supporter and use neocities for multiple projects. I would appreciate if there would be a good way to manage multiple sites without having to log in/out of them. I haven't figured out if there is something like that yet, if there is please let me know.

I'm not the maintainer of this gem, but I do know a bit about it due to some personal projects.

For context, you can find the logic that finds the API path here:

neocities-ruby/lib/neocities/cli.rb

Line 503 in 1d1c3bd

def self.app_config_path(name)

.

The workflow for the gem is that is basically checks to see if there is an API file, if there isn't then it'll ask you for credentials, and then it'll use those to generate a file containing an API key.

So you could theoretically create multiples of those files and then switch them out in the path that the gem looks for.

Or another solution would be to:

1. Log out of neocities
2. Call a command to initiate login
3. Copy the API key for that site
4. Repeat for each site

Then with each API key you have, you could call the neocities command with an inline environment variable.

Like if you wanted to call info on site1 and then site2 (assuming you have both API keys):

NEOCITIES_API_KEY=site1_api_key neocities info

NEOCITIES_API_KEY=site2_api_key neocities info
