can't read api keys

[Garbee]

How exactly did you set the environment variables in fish? If you do fish_config can you see them in the Variables tab listing?

Also the screenshot isn't displaying. Perhaps try re-uploading it?

[selfagency]

Is the screenshot working now? And yes, the variables appear in fish_config.

[Garbee]

Were the variables set with the -x option? That is what allows them to be passed to subprocesses in fish. Looking at the config area I don't see where they explicitly show this through the UX.

The screenshot is still failing with a 410 error.

Hi can you still not see the screencap above?

[notwaldorf]

Have you opened a new tab or restarted your terminal, to make sure that your env variables are actually picked up?

[selfagency]

i tried again, now nearly a year later, again, setting the variables with -x and restarting my terminal. still, the api keys were not read properly and i had to opt for scraping instead.

@selfagency Please read up on setting environment variables in fish: https://fishshell.com/docs/current/faq.html#faq-envvar

Try calling set before starting tct to make sure your environment variables are set.

i appreciate that you're trying to help, but i know how to set variables for fish. this is all in my config.fish which loads when you open a shell.

set -x TTC_REPOS dev
set -x TTC_REPOS_DEPTH 1
set -x TTC_GITBOT gitlog
set -x TTC_WEATHER 13214
set -x TTC_CELSIUS false
set -x TTC_APIKEYS true
set -x TTC_UPDATE_INTERVAL 10
set -x TTC_CONSUMER_KEY [my key]
set -x TTC_CONSUMER_SECRET [my secret]
set -x TTC_ACCESS_TOKEN [my token]
set -x TTC_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET [my token secret]

everything works fine except twitter which i have to set to scrape instead, otherwise i get an error.

😊 Ok, Sorry!
So let's assume it has nothing to do with the environment variables.

[mojoaxel]

I'm out of ideas here...Maybe generate a new api kay at twitter? Or try your existing key/secret with another app!?

[selfagency]

it was a brand new app with a brand new set of keys.

[mojoaxel]

You got me interested, so I installed fish (wich is nice by the way).
I had no problems with the twitter-API or anything else.

closing this because it's 4 years old, twitter banned me for fighting with the nazis they refuse to ban, and i want to clean up my issues tab
