{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"2 Step Authentication","articleBody":"A little reminder for people who are using 2 step authentication (I lost a fair while to this :disappointed: ). **You will not be able to use anything other than a SSH connection when using nodegit to operate remotely**. If you're finding that any remote operations are just hanging, this is most likely the cause.\n\nExample:\n\n``` js\nvar nodegit = require('nodegit'),\n    clone = nodegit.Clone.clone,\n    userpassPlaintextNew = nodegit.Cred.userpassPlaintextNew,\n    user = 'my-user-name',\n    pass = 'a-very-secret-password', \n    path = '/tmp/somewhere',\n    options = {\n      remoteCallbacks: {\n        credentials: function () {\n          return userpassPlaintextNew(user, pass);\n        }\n      }\n    };\n\nfunction url() {\n    var url = 'https://'\n    url += encodeURIComponent(user);\n    url += ':';\n    url += encodeURIComponent(pass);\n    url += '@github.com/some-user/some-project.git',\n    return url;\n}\n\nclone(url(), path, options)\n  .then(function (repo) {\n    console.log('IF YOU\\'RE USING 2 STEP AUTH THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN!');\n  });\n```\n\nIt's very difficult for automated services to get by 2 step authentication...that's why it's there. I'd recommend using other credentials until there's support for some kind of manual intervention.\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/johngeorgewright","@type":"Person","name":"johngeorgewright"},"datePublished":"2014-12-08T17:24:15.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":3},"url":"https://github.com/323/nodegit/issues/323"}
