pass_crypt

Introduction

pass_crypt is a simple Ruby application that allows the secure storage and retrieval of usernames and passwords. Usernames and passwords are stored in an SQLite database, encrypted using AES 256-bit encryption with a personal passphrase. Passwords can be inserted and retrieved using the clipboard for convenience and security.

Requirements

  • clipboard (gem)

    gem install clipboard # may require sudo

  • xclip & libsqlite3 (linux packages)

    sudo apt-get install xclip libsqlite3

  • You also need a version of Ruby installed that includes the OpenSSL libraries. Refer to http://www.ruby-lang.org for help in installing Ruby.

Installation

This will soon become a gem with bundler support. Until then...

Using Git, clone the repository:

git clone [email protected]:jamesds/pass_crypt.git

Usage

Simply run pass_crypt with no parameters to be shown brief usage instructions.

The SQLite database containing the encrypted data is kept in '~/.pass_crypt/crypt.db'. It may be wise to make backups of this file.

License

Use as you wish. I'll get a formal license when I release this as a gem.
