Generates deterministic passwords for services

Project description

Master

Strong password

Deterministic passwords for everyone.

This uses a combination of username + password + service + counter to generate the same password, over and over again, thus eliminating the need to store, maintain and back up other generated passwords.

The username and password are not stored anywhere.

The used service name list is kept under the file ~/.config/master/list.txt (or whatever MASTER_LIST points to) purely for autocompletion, which will be added later.

Install

pip install masterpass

Yes, yes. The package is called masterpass but the binary is called master. To be fixed after #2582 is resolved.

Usage

$ master --help
Usage: master [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  get      Gets the deterministic password for SERVICE.
  ls       Lists all stored services.
  rm       Removes SERVICE from the stored list.
  version  Shows the version.
