Authenticating with Screeps
Screeps has recently introduced a token-based auth system, and the old authentication system will be deprecated by 01 February 2018. The starter kit has been updated to support this new authentication process.
If you have an existing copy of your starter kit, follow these steps:
- Remove the
"username"and"password"keys from yourscreeps.jsonfile, and replace them with"token". - Upgrade
rollup-plugin-screepsto version 0.1.1. - Follow the authentication steps as defined below.
The authentication token is pulled by the starter kit from a file named
screeps.json. A sample config file (screeps.sample.json) is provided within the project, to use it, simply make a copy and rename it to screeps.json.cp screeps.sample.json screeps.json
IMPORTANT: The
screeps.json file contains your Screeps credentials! If you use any source control to store your codebase, DO NOT check in this file into your repository.To generate an authentication token, click [your username] > Manage account. You should see the Auth tokens in the options now, click it.

On the next screen, we'll create a full access token. We pick the Full access option, then click the Generate Token button.

Your generated token should now be shown on your screen. Copy it to your clipboard.

Note: This token will be displayed only once! Make sure to never lose it. However, if you did lose it, simply remove said token from your account, and create a new one.
Now, paste it to your
screeps.json file.

Now we'll do a quick check if things are running properly. Let's perform a quick deploy.
npm run push-main
Now go to your Screeps client and check if the
main branch is created, or if said branch already exists, the code is overwriten to it.It works? Good, you've successfully authenticated!
