# Netrc
This library reads and writes
[`.netrc` files](http://www.gnu.org/software/inetutils/manual/html_node/The-_002enetrc-File.html).
## API
Read a netrc file:
n = Netrc.read("sample.netrc")
If the file doesn't exist, Netrc.read will return an empty object. If
the filename ends in ".gpg", it will be decrypted using
[GPG](http://www.gnupg.org/).
Read the user's default netrc file. On Unix: `$HOME/.netrc`.
On Windows: `%HOME%\_netrc`, `%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\_netrc`, or `%USERPROFILE%\_netrc` (whichever is set first).
n = Netrc.read
Configure netrc to allow permissive files (with permissions other than 0600):
Netrc.configure do |config|
config[:allow_permissive_netrc_file] = true
end
Look up a username and password:
user, pass = n["example.com"]
Write a username and password:
n["example.com"] = user, newpass
n.save
If you make an entry that wasn't there before, it will be appended
to the end of the file. Sometimes people want to include a comment
explaining that the entry was added automatically. You can do it
like this:
n.new_item_prefix = "# This entry was added automatically\n"
n["example.com"] = user, newpass
n.save
Have fun!
