Your WebId.
The Base URL that is used for all delete, get, head, options post, put, patch requests.
The URL to a static client configuration. See "etc/web-solid-auth.jsonld" for an example. This file, edited for your own environment, needs to be published on some public accessible webserver.

Skip resources that already exist (mirror).
Delete local files that are not in the remote container (mirror).
Keep containers when cleaning data (clean).
Only update the data when the 'Etag' header matches the given string (put,patch). E.g. use the "head" command to find the ETag of a resource : 

    $ solid_auth head /demo/LICENSE
    ...
    ETag: "189aa19989dc47eab46c9f2e8c47d0836bb08cb09f7863cbf3cd3bb9a751be27"
    ...

Now update the resource with ETag protection

    $ solid_auth \
        --etag=189aa19989dc47eab46c9f2e8c47d0836bb08cb09f7863cbf3cd3bb9a751be27 \
        put /demo/LICENSE LICENSE
Force overwriting existing resources (put, patch).
Recursive (clean, mirror, upload).
Do it for real. The commands "clean" and "upload" will run by default in safe mode.
Add a header to a request (repeatable) for "get", "post", "head", "options" and "delete".

Start an authentication process for your WebId. You will be presented with a URL that you need to open in a webbrowser. After a successfull login the command can be closed.

The webbrowser needs to be opened on the same host as the where you where you run the solid_auth command.

Return the Authentication and DPoP headers for a HTTP "METHOD" request to "URL".
Execute a curl command with Authentication and DPoP headers added. Add a "--" option to the "CURL-OPTS" to stop solid_auth from interpreting Curl options.
List the resources in a LDP container at URL.
Mirror the contents of a container to a local directory. Optional provide "-r" option for recursive mirror.
Upload a directorty to a container. Optional provide "-r" option for recursive upload. With the "-x" option, the command will run in demo mode.
Clean all resources in a directory. Optional provide "-r" option for recursive clean. With the "-x" option, the command will run in demo mode. With the "--keep" options all container will be kept.
Return the response of a HTTP GET request to URL.
Return the HTTP Message of a HTTP POST request of the FILE with MIMETYPE. Uses libmagic to guess the mimetype.
Return the HTTP Message of a HTTP PUT request of the FILE with MIMETYPE. Uses libmagic to guess the mimetype.

When the URL ends with a slash (/), then a new container will be created.

Send the contents of a SPARQL patch file or string to a URL. Return the HTTP Message of the HTTP PATCH request to the URL.
Return the HTTP Header of a HTTP HEAD request to URL.
Return the HTTP Header of a HTTP OPTIONS request to URL.
delete URL
Return the HTTP Message of a HTTP DELETE request to URL.
Show the contents of the JWT id token.
Show the contents of the JWT access token.
