Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema/issues/185

I would like to include my asciinema config file as part of my dot files that i keep in a public repo; the only thing stopping me right now is that it would embed my api key as plaintext. Are there any plans to allow for alternative methods of storing this value, such as environment variable, that would allow for asciinema to consume it without having to store it in the clear?

Thanks!
