Lock libretranslate to only users with api keys

[visamp]

If I install a key, do I need to comment out the line below so that it is locked down to only users with api keys?

When tried to setup the keys, as well, I ended up creating four, which is probably fine. But, I ran this command to try to remove the three extra keys for simplicity sake and failed. How do I amend this code to remove keys:

su - cloudron -c 'source /app/code/.venv/bin/activate; ltmanage keys remove <key-I-want-to-remove> --api-keys-db-path /app/data/db/api_keys.db'

The documentation from libretranslate really doesn't help all that much because of how Cloudron interacts with things. Please let me know where I went wrong with my attempt at hacking the code together above because it didn't work.

I used this code successfully to show my keys - maybe want to update the docs to show this code as the link to the libretranslate docs shows code that doesn't have the Cloudron layered on:

su - cloudron -c 'source /app/code/.venv/bin/activate; ltmanage keys --api-keys-db-path /app/data/db/api_keys.db'

Also, in the main dashboard of the app, this link is broken (misspelled https://)

[visamp]

So, basically, these codes work:

Add a new key:

su - cloudron -c 'source /app/code/.venv/bin/activate; ltmanage keys --api-keys-db-path /app/data/db/api_keys.db add 120'

Show all created keys:
su - cloudron -c 'source /app/code/.venv/bin/activate; ltmanage keys --api-keys-db-path /app/data/db/api_keys.db'

But, the remove key doesn't seem to work for me (I don't understand the formatting) and it would be great to have a character set version as well such as from LibreTranslate: ltmanage keys add 120 --char-limit 5000

Okay, sorry for the rapid fire.

@visamp thanks for the hint about the wrong URL, this is fixed now for next package release.

We will further add the key listing docs then.

[visamp]

Thank you! Do you know off hand what the code would be to remove a certain API key?

[nebulon]

We have also added listing and removing keys commands in the docs page now at https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/libretranslate/#api

[visamp]

Rock on! This is perfect and super helpful.

From the README it seems Set maximum number of requests per minute per client (outside of limits set by api keys) so maybe yes. But not really sure. Maybe you can ask upstream about this.

Also below LT_REQUIRE_API_KEY_ORIGIN is set to true, maybe that means the instance is already locked down to only api keys, but also this is not totally clear to me.

According to folks on their forum, there's another step to lock down:

https://community.libretranslate.com/t/locking-down-api-key-on-self-hosted-through-cloudron/1767/2

We may need to update the docs here on cloudron:

To configure requirement for api key to use, set --req-limit to 0 and add the --api-keys flag. Requests made without a proper api key will be rejected.

Hello. When I run the su - cloudron -c 'source /app/code/.venv/bin/activate; ltmanage keys --api-keys-db-path /app/data/db/api_keys.db add 120' command from the docs, I get This account is currently not available. Was there an update of the API ?

Looks like the correct way to call ltmanage now (probably related to the base image python update), is to first source the pyhton env and then run the command:

source /app/code/venv/bin/activate
ltmanage keys --api-keys-db-path /app/data/db/api_keys.db
