passman

A UNIX password manager

Installation

Passman is distributed via Homebrew.

$ brew install olishmollie/tools/passman

Getting started

Passman stores encrypted passwords in a directory in your home folder. To get started, run passman init, which will create the password store at ~/.passman and generate an encryption key.

Encrypt and store a password:

$ passman add foo/bar baz
$ passman add baz/boom bang

See your password store:

$ passman
Password Store
├── baz
│   └── boom
└── foo
    └── bar

Print a password to stdout:

$ passman foo/bar
baz

Or copy it to clipboard:

$ passman -c foo/bar

Dump encrypted passwords into backup file:

$ passman dump -o pswds.bak

Import a dump file:

$ passman import pswds.bak

Tab Completion

Passman comes bundled with a bash completion script. To use it, source passman-completion.bash from your bashrc or bash_profile.
