There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thanks a lot for this feature, this is really really neat :) People have requested native keyring support but I think this might be even more flexible as it can be used with any backend/CLI client like vault etc.
I've just added a few comments, sorry it's just a very user-facing feature so I thought it'd be good to agree on the approach from the start.
Also I think this deserves a mention in the docs, would you mind adding a section in https://github.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab/blob/master/docs/cli-usage.rst?

Hi @nejch, yes I am fine with your changes. This is a good compromise
between convenience and security. Thanks :)

Thank you for the changes @klorenz <https://github.com/klorenz> and sorry
for the delay! I'll be merging in a minute.
I really liked the convenience of your initial implementation, and I don't
want to block this PR any longer so I just pushed a small change (I
credited you as the author still) - I went for a compromise where
shell=False is still used and recommend wrappers for any scripts that
require piping etc. I hope this is ok with you.
I also expanded the docs and wrapped the call in a try/except block for
people to have a meaningful erorr message on the CLI. See 91ffb8e
<91ffb8e>,
let me know if you want to revisit this in a follow-up.

I have stored my personal access token with all other secrets in UNIX password store.
For not having the token stored on the disk, I have implemented the option to let tokens be
looked up from a helper program.
Example:
whith a helper script
~/bin/pass-helper.sh:
