Feature request: tx login

[beck]

because we already have the config set up but onboarding new engineers need a .transifexrc.

As is, our local dev instructions are:

• run tx config
• input API token
• quit the wizard with ctrl+c

Looking at the source, I don't see any way to just call .getset_host_credentials

tx init --skipsetup looked promising but then it prompts you with:

It seems that this project is already initialized.
Do you want to delete it and reinit the project? [Y/n]:

Hello Beck,

Thank you for reaching out to Transifex support.
Regarding your query, I assume you will like to set up a new project without deleting the current one, Is this correct?
If it is, Perhaps the following approach will work for you:

1. Create a virtual environment (python3 -m venv /Users/Cesar/VirtualEnv)
2. Create a test project in Transifex
3. Place yourself in /Users/Cesar/VirtualEnv
4. Execute "tx init or tx config"
5. Follow the instructions

Let me know if this answers your question
Best Regards
Cesar

Not quite.

I want to login, in other words only create the file ~/.transifexrc (without mutating anything else)
