## Usage of uv and project management

- Use `uv` for creating isolated Python environments instead of `virtualenv` or `venv`. This ensures consistency across different development setups and simplifies dependency management.

## Configuration

### Environment Variables

For accessing certain 3GPP resources that require authentication, you can configure ETSI Online (EOL) credentials:

```bash
# Copy the example file
cp .env.example .env

# Edit .env and add your credentials:
# EOL_USERNAME=your_username
# EOL_PASSWORD=your_password
```

Alternatively, you can:
- Pass credentials via CLI options: `--eol-username` and `--eol-password`
- Let the tool prompt you interactively when needed

## Quick Start

### 1. Crawl the 3GPP FTP Server

# Environment Configuration Setup

**Date:** 2025-10-20
**Feature:** Added .env.example file for credential management

## Summary

Created `.env.example` file to provide users with a template for configuring environment variables, specifically ETSI Online (EOL) credentials required for accessing certain 3GPP resources.

## Changes Made

### 1. Created `.env.example` File ✅

**File:** `.env.example`

**Contents:**
```bash
# Environment Variables for TDoc Crawler

# ETSI Online (EOL) Account Credentials
# These credentials are used for accessing certain 3GPP resources that require authentication
# Sign up for an EOL account at: https://portal.etsi.org/

# Your ETSI Online username
EOL_USERNAME=your_username_here

# Your ETSI Online password
EOL_PASSWORD=your_password_here

# Note: Never commit the actual .env file to version control!
# Copy this file to .env and replace the placeholders with your actual credentials.
```

**Purpose:**
- Provides template for users to create their own `.env` file
- Documents required environment variables
- Includes helpful comments and instructions
- References where to obtain credentials (ETSI portal)

### 2. Updated README.md ✅

Added new **Configuration** section explaining:
- How to set up environment variables using `.env.example`
- Alternative methods for providing credentials:
  - CLI options (`--eol-username`, `--eol-password`)
  - Interactive prompts
- Step-by-step setup instructions

## Environment Variables Documented

### EOL_USERNAME
- **Purpose:** ETSI Online account username
- **Used by:** `crawl-meetings` command for accessing 3GPP portal
- **Alternative:** `--eol-username` CLI option or interactive prompt

### EOL_PASSWORD
- **Purpose:** ETSI Online account password
- **Used by:** `crawl-meetings` command for accessing 3GPP portal
- **Alternative:** `--eol-password` CLI option or interactive prompt

## User Workflow

### Setup Process

1. **Copy template:**
   ```bash
   cp .env.example .env
   ```

2. **Edit `.env` file:**
   ```bash
   # Replace placeholders with actual credentials
   EOL_USERNAME=actual_username
   EOL_PASSWORD=actual_password
   ```

3. **Use the tool:**
   ```bash
   # Credentials automatically loaded from .env
   tdoc-crawler crawl-meetings
   ```

### Alternative Methods

**Method 1: CLI Options**
```bash
tdoc-crawler crawl-meetings --eol-username myuser --eol-password mypass
```

**Method 2: Interactive Prompt**
```bash
tdoc-crawler crawl-meetings --prompt-credentials
# Tool will prompt for credentials when needed
```

**Method 3: Environment Variables (without .env file)**
```bash
export EOL_USERNAME=myuser
export EOL_PASSWORD=mypass
tdoc-crawler crawl-meetings
```

## Security Best Practices

### ✅ Implemented

1. **`.env` in `.gitignore`**
   - Actual `.env` file is excluded from version control
   - Only `.env.example` template is committed

2. **Clear Documentation**
   - Warning in `.env.example`: "Never commit the actual .env file to version control!"
   - Instructions in README.md emphasize this

3. **Multiple Authentication Methods**
   - Users can choose the method that fits their security requirements
   - Interactive prompts avoid storing credentials in files

### 📋 Recommendations for Users

1. **Never commit `.env` files**
   - Already protected by `.gitignore`
   - Double-check before committing sensitive changes

2. **Use environment-specific credentials**
   - Different credentials for development/production
   - Rotate passwords regularly

3. **Consider credential managers**
   - Use OS keychain/credential manager when possible
   - GitHub CLI uses keyring (as seen in setup)

## Compliance with AGENTS.md

**Environment Variable Loading:** `.env` file is automatically loaded via `python-dotenv` in `cli.py`

**Credential Handling:** Three methods implemented as specified:
1. Environment variables (`EOL_USERNAME`, `EOL_PASSWORD`)
2. CLI parameters (`--eol-username`, `--eol-password`)
3. Interactive prompts (`--prompt-credentials`)

**Security:** `.env` files excluded from version control via `.gitignore`

**Documentation:** Clear instructions in README.md and inline comments

## Files Modified

1. **Created:** `.env.example` - Template for environment variables
2. **Updated:** `README.md` - Added Configuration section
3. **Staged:** `.env.example` ready to commit

## Next Steps

### For Project Maintainers

1. **Commit the changes:**
   ```bash
   git add .env.example README.md
   git commit -m "Add .env.example template for credential configuration"
   ```

2. **Consider adding to documentation:**
   - How to obtain EOL account
   - Troubleshooting authentication issues
   - Rate limiting considerations

### For Users

1. **Create `.env` file:**
   ```bash
   cp .env.example .env
   ```

2. **Sign up for EOL account:**
   - Visit https://portal.etsi.org/
   - Register for an account
   - Add credentials to `.env`

3. **Test authentication:**
   ```bash
   tdoc-crawler crawl-meetings --limit-meetings 1
   ```

## Benefits

1. **User-Friendly:** Clear template with instructions
2. **Secure:** Credentials not hardcoded or committed
3. **Flexible:** Multiple authentication methods
4. **Standard Practice:** Follows common `.env.example` convention
5. **Self-Documenting:** Comments explain each variable

The `.env.example` file provides a professional, secure way for users to configure their credentials while maintaining best practices for credential management.
