cargo owner - The Cargo Book

# cargo-owner(1)

## NAME

cargo-owner - Manage the owners of a crate on the registry

## SYNOPSIS

`cargo owner` [options] `--add` login [crate]
`cargo owner` [options] `--remove` login [crate]
`cargo owner` [options] `--list` [crate]

## DESCRIPTION

This command will modify the owners for a crate on the registry. Owners of a crate can upload new versions and yank old versions. Non-team owners can also modify the set of owners, so take care!

This command requires you to be authenticated with either the `--token` option or using cargo-login(1).

If the crate name is not specified, it will use the package name from the current directory.

See the reference for more information about owners and publishing.

## OPTIONS

### Owner Options

`-a`
`--add` login...
  Invite the given user or team as an owner.
`-r`
`--remove` login...
  Remove the given user or team as an owner.
`-l`
`--list`
  List owners of a crate.
`--token` token
  API token to use when authenticating. This overrides the token stored in the credentials file (which is created by cargo-login(1)).

  Cargo config environment variables can be used to override the tokens stored in the credentials file. The token for crates.io may be specified with the `CARGO_REGISTRY_TOKEN` environment variable. Tokens for other registries may be specified with environment variables of the form `CARGO_REGISTRIES_NAME_TOKEN` where `NAME` is the name of the registry in all capital letters.

`--index` index
  The URL of the registry index to use.
`--registry` registry
  Name of the registry to use. Registry names are defined in Cargo config files. If not specified, the default registry is used, which is defined by the `registry.default` config key which defaults to `crates-io`.

### Display Options

`-v`
`--verbose`
  Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose" output which includes extra output such as dependency warnings and build script output. May also be specified with the `term.verbose` config value.
`-q`
`--quiet`
  No output printed to stdout.
`--color` when
  Control when colored output is used. Valid values:
  - `auto` (default): Automatically detect if color support is available on the terminal.
  - `always`: Always display colors.
  - `never`: Never display colors.

  May also be specified with the `term.color` config value.

### Common Options

`+`toolchain
  If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to `cargo` begins with `+`, it will be interpreted as a rustup toolchain name (such as `+stable` or `+nightly`). See the rustup documentation for more information about how toolchain overrides work.
`-h`
`--help`
  Prints help information.
`-Z` flag
  Unstable (nightly-only) flags to Cargo. Run `cargo -Z help` for details.

## ENVIRONMENT

See the reference for details on environment variables that Cargo reads.

## EXIT STATUS

- `0`: Cargo succeeded.
- `101`: Cargo failed to complete.

       cargo owner --list foo
