Ringpass - A trivially simple Password Manager, backed by Keyrings

This is really meant as a golang learning project. Please use accordingly :)

Compatibility

• Works on *Nix
• Works on OSX

Dependencies

Linux

The Linux implementation depends on the [Secret Service][SecretService] dbus interface, which is provided by GNOME Keyring.

It's expected that the default collection login exists in the keyring, because it's the default in most distros. If it doesn't exist, you can create it through the keyring frontend program Seahorse:

• Open seahorse
• Go to File > New > Password Keyring
• Click Continue
• When asked for a name, use: login

Features

• Set Secret (stores in keyring, keychain)
• Retrieve secret to clipboard and JSON (stdout) for things like JQ, etc or use in automated scripts

Usage

• Download binary for your OS from the releases to /usr/local/bin or other exec directory

Store secrets

ringpass set --key hello --service aws 
Enter value: 

• Has the ability to handle getpasswd() style password prompt

OR

ringpass set --key hello --service aws --value supersecret
2020/02/18 07:51:25 Successfully stored Key, Value and Service in Keyring

• Reads string literals from stdin

Short-codes for flags also available

ringpass set -k hello -s aws -v supersecret

Retrieve secret

Copy to clipboard

ringpass get -c -s aws -k hello
2020/02/18 07:55:27 Successfully written secret to system clipboard

• Copies to clipboard

Write to JSON - stdout

ringpass get -j -s aws -k hello
{"service":"aws","key":"hello","value":"supersecret"}

• Additional cmdline-fu

ringpass get -j -s aws -k hello | jq -r .value
