# netrc

A Go package that gets the credentials for a given host from a netrc file.

## Example Usage

This example shows how to make an HTTP GET request using the credentials from

the user's `.netrc` file in their home directory:

```go

// note: some error handling is removed for brevity

url, _ := url.Parse("https://example.com/")

client := http.Client{Timeout: 5 * time.Second}

request, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", url.String(), nil)

credentials, err := netrc.Get(url.Host)

if err != nil {

  fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Failed to load credentials from netrc file: %v\n", err)

  os.Exit(1)

}

request.SetBasicAuth(credentials.Username, credentials.Password)

response, _ := client.Do(request)

// handle err and response etc

```
