How to use with HTTP auth?

[cmahnke]

In Sickle one can provide authentification information like this:

sickle = Sickle('https://sammlungen.uni-goettingen.de/oai/', auth=('user', 'password') )

How does it work with this client?

[cmahnke]

Well, since there is #187 I suspect that this feature has been removed from the fork?!

Thank you for opening this and thanks for using the library. Apart from the auth issue, does it work as expected for you and the Göttingen OAI endpoint?

The reason for removing it in the first place: I wanted to make the parameters more explicit, so that type hinting and code completion in IDEs works better out of the box.

I will add the auth parameters soon.

Yes, my workaround worked, keep in mind that the credentials posted here are made up as example. Thanks!

Of course, I hope there is no user called user in that system's database.

Please try this with version 0.12.0 and let me know if it works for your repository.

scythe = Scythe('https://sammlungen.uni-goettingen.de/oai/', auth=('user', 'password'))
scythe.identify()

[cmahnke]

Yes, it works, thanks!
