This is a simple password manager CLI tool.

Usage

• download the right executable for your OS from the releases page, or if you want to compile it yourself - scroll down to the Compile instructions

• if you download the executable, it is recommended to move it out of your Downloads folder into a folder of its own (e.g. C:/Program Files/Password Manager)

• run the program

• available commands and flags after authentication with master password:

  -- add -s=service name -u=username -p=password

  -- get -s=service name

  -- delete -s=service name -u=username

  -- exit

  (!) there should be no whitespaces in the service name, username or password

Features:

• master password that is never stored anywhere

  -- set up master password on the first run

  -- secure password field that doesn't expose the master password while it is being entered (similar to how linux handles sudo password in terminal)

  -- enter master password on subsequent runs to be able to decrypt other saved passwords

• store usernames and passwords for any service/website

  -- usernames and passwords are encrypted before being saved and decrypted when asked for, using a key derived from the master password

• delete any saved service/username/password combination

Potential issues and fixes

• on Linux, when downloading the compiled executable, often it will not have execute permissions by default. To fix this, navigate to the directory where the file is and run 'chmod +x password-manager-linux-amd64' in the terminal

Compile instructions

• install Go
• clone the repository into a folder
• run 'go build'. This will compile the program with the name of the folder. Optionally, you can run 'go build -o name of your choice'
