CARGO-LOGIN(1) General Commands Manual CARGO-LOGIN(1)
NAME
cargo-login - Save an API token from the registry locally
SYNOPSIS
cargo login [options] [token]
DESCRIPTION
This command will save the API token to disk so that commands that
require authentication, such as cargo-publish(1), will be automatically
authenticated. The token is saved in $CARGO_HOME/credentials.toml.
CARGO_HOME defaults to .cargo in your home directory.
If the token argument is not specified, it will be read from stdin.
The API token for crates.io may be retrieved from
<https://crates.io/me>.
Take care to keep the token secret, it should not be shared with anyone
else.
OPTIONS
Login Options
--registry registry
Name of the registry to use. Registry names are defined in Cargo
config files
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. If not
specified, the default registry is used, which is defined by the
registry.default config key which defaults to crates-io.
Display Options
-v, --verbose
Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose"
output which includes extra output such as dependency warnings and

<https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html> for more
information about how toolchain overrides work.
