Salesforce login through curl / wget

[zoheb]

I need to login info Salesforce account via bash script and then call specific pages that contains information that I need to monitor.  Any help or suggestions?

 

I was able to login into other website using below command, but this ain't working with Salesforce.

wget -c https://ap1.salesforce.com --no-check-certificate --save-cookies cookies.txt --post-data --cookies=on --keep-session-cookies --post-data 'username=asd@asd.com&pw=changeme'

  TIA

I can't say for sure, but I'd guess that having the --post-data argument in there twice isn't helping:

 

wget -c https://ap1.salesforce.com --no-check-certificate --save-cookies cookies.txt --post-data --cookies=on --keep-session-cookies --post-data 'username=asd@asd.com&pw=changeme'

                                                                                         Here                                          And here

From googling briefly, it doesn't appear to be supported. Documentation suggests this: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api_asynch/Content/asynch_api_quickstart_login.htm
