export PYTHONPATH="$(pwd):$PYTHONPATH"
python app/main.py

The application should prompt you to authenticate with your Google account.

Start with Passphrase

If you want to hide your token on a shared machine, you can use a passphrase to encrypt the token. Add a leading space to the command to prevent it from being saved in the history.

 PASSPHRASE="your-passphrase" python app/main.py

If it still shows up in the history, try HISTCONTROL=ignorespace and re-run the command.
