Use WP-CLI to generate a one-time login URL for any user

Description

Need access to a WordPress install but don't want to create a new user account? Use this plugin to generate one-time login URLs for any existing user. Then, copy the URL, paste it into your web browser, and... voila!

Because they are one-time login URLs, they will only work once. If you need access again, you'll need to run the WP-CLI command again.

Using WP CLI to generate OTT URLs

==== Example ====

wp plugin install one-time-login --activate && wp user one-time-login <user> --count=3 --delay-delete

After you run the command above, you'll see a success message like this:

http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=2&one_time_login_token=93974b48e3a418b895fc7ca476f1a607d8b99345

Or like this if you asked for more than one:

http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=1&one_time_login_token=2b9c6f5d71d51d530e397ee9da3b50e4e3dd06e7
http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=1&one_time_login_token=90897da439a116c613fc1c49c372e6b1f7c72ad8
http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=1&one_time_login_token=68c8074743de849db606500c3caa39a7432dc601

==== Parameters ====

  • count: Generate more than one login token (default: 1);
  • delay-delete: Delete existing tokens after 15 minutes, instead of immediately.

Using WP API to generate OTT URLs

==== Example with cUrl ====

curl -X POST \
	http://wpdev.test/wp-json/one-time-login/v1/token
	-H 'authorization: Basic YWRtaW46eFRQeUJ5c3hEckhkY3BNYjE2endiQ2tj'
	-H 'cache-control: no-cache'
	-H 'postman-token: 8dcfa79a-401a-2c7d-c593-703e683ce785'
	-d '{
		"user":"admin",
		"count": 3,
		"delay-delete": true
	}'

==== Parameters ====

Just as with WP CLI, you can add the count and delay_delete parameters to your call.
