plex-api-credentials 

plex-api authenticator module which provides PlexHome credentials authentication.

*It's usually not required to install and handle this package explicitly, as username/password/managed user credentials
can be specified when creating an plex-api client.*

Usage

``bash
$ npm install plex-api-credentials --save
`

Then provide the plex-api-credentials object to the plex-api client upon creation:

`js
const PlexAPI = require('plex-api');
const credentials = require('plex-api-credentials');

const userAndPass = credentials({
username: 'MainParentUser',
password: 'aSecretPassword',
managedUser: { // Required for Plex managed users
name: 'RestrictedFamilyMember',
pin: '1234' // Optional four digit pin code if user is protected
}
});

const client = new PlexAPI({
hostname: '192.168.0.1',
authenticator: userAndPass
});

// use PlexAPI client as usual
client.find('/library/sections', ...);
`

Events

Changelog

$3

- Support for managed users by @hyperlink

BREAKING CHANGES:
- Requires at least Node.js v4.0
- constructor(username, password) -> constructor(options)`

Previously the constructor accepted two simple string arguments,
this has been changed to accepting a complex options object.

$3

- Use plex-api-headers for generating X-Plex headers
- Changed .authenticate(apiOptions) -> .authenticate(plexApi)

$3

Initial release. Pretty much extracted as was when the code once existed in the plex-api module itself.
