passpass

passpass

PassPass is a simple command-line Password Manager built in Golang. It prompts the user for a master password every time and hence does not store the master password.

Every password is encrypted using the master password and stored in a file p.psdb in JSON format. The JSON is also encrypted using the master password. The default directory is $HOME/.passpass/p.psdb

The password file is portable and user just needs to remember the master password as it is not stored anywhere.

Usage:

go run passpass.go --help

Generating the build:

go build passpass.go

Options:

Usage: passpass [-p] [-g value] [--help] [-s value] [parameters ...]
 -d, --delete=value value must be {keyname}. Deletes the key.
 -f, --password-file=value Provide the path of password file
 -g, --get=value    value must be {keyname}. Get password for the corresponding key
 --help             Help
 -p, --get-keys     Print all keys
 -s, --set=value    value must be {keyname:password}. Sets key & password.

go run passpass.go -s 'keyname'

go run passpass.go -g keyname

go run passpass.go -d keyname

go run passpass.go -p

go run passpass.go -c
