Authenticate

Set your API key once using the system keychain: 
latitude login
  • Provide --api-key <key> to skip the prompt
  • Use -f/--force to override without confirmation

​
Environment variable (CI/containers)

You can also provide LATITUDE_API_KEY as an environment variable. If set, it takes precedence over the stored key. 
export LATITUDE_API_KEY=your_api_key
Unset the variable to use the stored key again.

​
Development mode

Add --dev to any command to target a local Gateway at localhost:8787: 
latitude status --dev
This is handy when running Latitude in development on your machine.
