passwordgetter

A basic cli tool that uses golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/terminal's method terminal.ReadPassword to get a password.

Purpose

This was to help me understand stubbing the interface for stdin capture, as I've been writing tests for a lot of CLI apps recently.

The idea was from this StackOverflow question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38573176/mocking-crypto-ssh-terminal

And the code was based on https://github.com/isaacasensio/memo - which already had some stubbing in it!

Installation

Via Go

$ go get github.com/petems/passwordgetter

Usage

$ passwordgetter
Enter password:

Your password was: hunter2
