curl --digest not working

Are you requesting support for a new curl flag? If so, what is the flag and the equivalent Go code?

curl --user "{PUBLIC-KEY}:{PRIVATE-KEY}" --digest \
 --header "Accept: application/json" \
 --include \
 --request GET "https://{OPSMANAGER-HOST}:{PORT}/api/public/v1.0/groups/{PROJECT-ID}/hosts?pretty=true"

You are right, I am very supportive of originality, we will write one when we have time

Ok, thanks for the link. If any of the code was borrowed, we need to conform to the license restrictions. Maybe it’s a little tricky since we’re doing code generation (see the whole GitHub Copilot fiasco, though technically that’s very different, in practice it’s a very similar task)… it’s weird because the code we generate we don’t really care about license or have one, it’s basically public domain. So it’ll be difficult to use unoriginal code that has a license attached to that part of it. And part of conforming to the restrictions of the license is crediting the authors and putting in the copyright. But only that part of the code would be “copyrighted,” I guess.

See what I mean? Is there any way we can do this without licensing someone else’s code?
