Feature Request: Password Prompt #99

I would explore if there are any other built-in alternative ways to supply a password for Oracle, if there are it would be best to utilize those (e.g. as we already do for MySQL and PostgreSQL). A couple of things to consider if we would go with the idea of asking a password from user:

Nice.
I think the feature is good, but I would consider storing password for
session to avoid lots of prompts.
I know that other sides have some features to avoid using cli passwords,
but sometimes users don't know how to achieve it, depending on the OS (eg.
Postgresql on Windows) it's so painful that they give up and prefer to
type it every time.
What do you think? That's a good discussion.

A couple of things to consider if we would go with the idea of asking a
password from user:
- each interaction with CLI would require a password, so we have to
store that password internally to avoid asking it every time
- dealing with loading default connection and password prompt.
- we do launch internal Commands as well to get a list of identifiers
(tables, columns, functions etc) - probably not a problem

Yes, I completely agree with you that usability and user friendliness is affected when using more secure ways to supply a password (e.g. configuring On PostgreSQL authentication: On Oracle authentication: |
I guess we can borrow the concept of setting environment variables (for PostgreSQL auth) from Sublime Text E.g. something like this:

If you still having problems doing it manually you can install pgAdmin and add a connection there (use the checkbox option to save password). |

I just developed this feature in the vscode version. Ref. mtxr/vscode-sqltools@0744343 I plan to do it here on Saturday. |
/remind me to do this in two days |

@mtxr, In December, you were hoping to implement this same Password Prompt feature for sublime that you did in vscode. Is that still something you're planning to do? |
@bclinthall I'm a bit far from Sublime Text for while. @tkopets is maintaining it for most cases. Anyway, I'll take a look at Sublime recent updates and check a way to explore it and request the password. |
This new feature is available in just published and most recent release ExampleNote the line

Description
Any chance we can get a prompt for a password if left as null in the connection settings?
I feel uncomfortable keeping all the login information in one place in plaintext
