Password hygene

Y'all don't look evil. But it's really really skeezy to ask folks to hand their passwords over to your code.

Wouldn't your API work go just as smoothly if you had them go to elearning (or maybe even login.ufl.edu) by hand, before running them?

@rout39574 yea you have a point there, but this codebase is pretty small to go through and read to see what's happening with your password.

The solution you proposed definitely works, but if you wanted to use this as a normal API (i.e. making calls from a server on a regular basis to automatically reply to a post in canvas) you'd need to put your password in somewhere.
