# Authentication for Source Code
|
|
|
|
**The latest version of this documentation is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/tree/master/docs/users/authentication.md).**
|
|
|
|
Registries and `vcpkg_from_git()` directly use the git command line tools to fetch remote resources. Some of these resources may be protected from anonymous access and need authentication or credentials.
|
|
|
|
The strategies below all seek to achieve the same fundamental goal: `git clone https://....` should succeed without interaction. This enables vcpkg to be separated from the specifics of your authentication scheme, ensuring forwards compatibility with any additional security improvements in the future.
|
|
|
|
## Pre-seed git credentials
|
|
|
|
You can pre-seed git credentials via `git credential approve`:
|
|
|
|
Powershell:
|
|
```powershell
|
|
"url=https://github.com`npath=Microsoft/vcpkg`nusername=unused`npassword=$MY_PAT`n" | git credential approve
|
|
```
|
|
Bash:
|
|
```sh
|
|
echo "url=https://github.com"$'\n'"path=Microsoft/vcpkg"$'\n'"username=unused"$'\n'"password=$MY_PAT"$'\n' | git credential approve
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Bearer auth
|
|
|
|
For systems which need bearer auth, you can use `git config`:
|
|
|
|
**Note: you must make these config changes with `--global`**
|
|
```
|
|
git config --global --unset-all http.<uri>.extraheader
|
|
git config --global http.<uri>.extraheader "AUTHORIZATION: bearer <System_AccessToken>"
|
|
```
|
|
The `<uri>` can be filled in with a variety of options, documented in https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config#Documentation/git-config.txt-httplturlgt. For example, `https://dev.azure.com/MYORG/`.

|
|
**Note for Azure DevOps users:** You may need to enable access via Job authorization scope https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/access-tokens?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml#job-authorization-scope. You may also need to "reference" the repo in your yaml via:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
resources:
|
|
repositories:
|
|
- repository: <FRIENDLYNAME>
|
|
type: git
|
|
name: <ORG>/<REPO>
|
|
tag: tags/<TAG>
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
jobs:
|
|
- job: Build
|
|
uses:
|
|
repositories: [<FRIENDLYNAME>]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Pass credentials in an environment variable (not recommended)
|
|
|
|
Using `VCPKG_KEEP_ENV_VARS` or `VCPKG_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_UNTRACKED`, we can smuggle credential info via another var like `MY_TOKEN_VAR`.
|
|
```sh
|
|
export VCPKG_KEEP_ENV_VARS=MY_TOKEN_VAR
|
|
export MY_TOKEN_VAR=abc123
|
|
```
|
|
This can then be used in your private ports:
|
|
```cmake
|
|
# some/private/portfile.cmake
|
|
set(MY_TOKEN_VAR "")
|
|
if(DEFINED ENV{MY_TOKEN_VAR})
|
|
set(MY_TOKEN_VAR "$ENV{MY_TOKEN_VAR}@")
|
|
endif()
|
|
vcpkg_from_git(
|
|
URLS "https://${MY_TOKEN_VAR}host.com/normal/url/path"
|
|
...
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
```cmake
|
|
# some/other/private/portfile.cmake
|
|
vcpkg_from_github(
|
|
AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN "$ENV{MY_TOKEN_VAR}"
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For private ports, we recommend using `vcpkg_from_git()` instead of `vcpkg_from_github()` and the pre-seeding method above.

## Pass Jenkins gitUsernamePassword credentials
|
|
|
|
The simplest and most secure option to Git authentication to GitHub from Jenkins is using [GitHub App](https://github.com/jenkinsci/github-branch-source-plugin/blob/master/docs/github-app.adoc) and the following:
|
|
```groovy
|
|
withCredentials([gitUsernamePassword(credentialsId: 'jenkins-github-app')]) {
|
|
withEnv(['VCPKG_KEEP_ENV_VARS=GIT_ASKPASS']) {
|
|
bat 'cmake'
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
This sets the GIT_ASKPASS with a path to helper script which responds with git credentials query and instructs `vcpkg` to keep this environment variable. The password is a [GitHub App token](https://github.blog/2021-04-05-behind-githubs-new-authentication-token-formats/) with 1 hour lifetime.
