NAME
     glab-auth-dpop-gen  -  Generate  a DPoP (demonstrating-proof-of-possession)
     proof JWT. (EXPERIMENTAL)

SYNOPSIS
     glab auth dpop-gen [flags]

DESCRIPTION
     Generates a demonstrating-proof-of-possession (DPoP) proof JSON  Web  Token
     (JWT).   DPoP  cryptographically binds personal access tokens to their own-
     ers.

     Use the JWT with a personal access token (PAT) to authenticate to the  Git-
     Lab  API.	 glab  signs  the JWT with your SSH private key. The JWT remains
     valid for five minutes. After it expires, generate another one.

     Prerequisites:

     * An SSH key pair in RSA, ed25519, or ECDSA format.

     * Enabled DPoP for your account  <https://docs.gitlab.com/user/profile/per-
       sonal_access_tokens/#use-dpop-with-personal-access-tokens>.

     This  feature  is	an  experiment	and is not ready for production use.  It
     might be unstable or removed  at  any  time.   For  more  information,  see
     https://docs.gitlab.com/policy/development_stages_support/.

OPTIONS
     --hostname="gitlab.com"	  The hostname of the GitLab instance to authen-
     ticate with.

     --pat=""	   Personal access token (PAT) to generate a DPoP proof for. De-
     faults to the token set with 'glab auth login'.

     -p, --private-key=""      Location of the private SSH key on the local sys-
     tem.

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS
     -h, --help[=false]      Show help for this command.

EXAMPLE
     # Generate a DPoP JWT using an SSH private key and a personal access token
     glab auth dpop-gen --private-key "~/.ssh/id_rsa" --pat "glpat-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

     # Generate a DPoP JWT without a PAT (uses the token from 'glab auth login')
     glab auth dpop-gen --private-key "~/.ssh/id_rsa"

     # Generate a DPoP JWT for a different GitLab instance
     glab auth dpop-gen --private-key "~/.ssh/id_rsa" --hostname "https://gitlab.com"
