Purse is a fork of [drduh/pwd.sh](https://github.com/drduh/pwd.sh).
|
|
|
|
Both programs are Bash shell scripts which use [GnuPG](https://www.gnupg.org/) to manage passwords and other secrets in encrypted text files. Purse is based on asymmetric (public-key) authentication, while pwd.sh is based on symmetric (password-based) authentication.
|
|
|
|
While both scripts use a trusted crypto implementation (GnuPG) and safely handle passwords (never saving plaintext to disk, only using shell built-ins), Purse eliminates the need to remember a main passphrase - just plug in a YubiKey, enter the PIN, then touch it to decrypt a password to clipboard.
|
|
|
|
# Install
|
|
|
|
This script requires a GnuPG identity - see [drduh/YubiKey-Guide](https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide) to set one up.
|
|
|
|
For the latest version, clone the repository or download the script directly:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
git clone https://github.com/drduh/Purse
|
|
|
|
wget https://github.com/drduh/Purse/blob/master/purse.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Versioned [Releases](https://github.com/drduh/Purse/releases) are also available.
|
|
|
|
# Use
|
|
|
|
Run the script interactively using `./purse.sh` or symlink to a directory in `PATH`:
|
|
|
|
- `w` to write a password
|
|
- `r` to read a password
|
|
- `l` to list passwords
|
|
- `b` to create an archive for backup
|
|
- `h` to print the help text
|
|
|
|
Options can also be passed on the command line.
|
|
|
|
Create a 20-character password for `userName`:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
./purse.sh w userName 20
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Read password for `userName`:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
./purse.sh r userName
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Passwords are stored with an epoch timestamp for revision control. The most recent version is copied to clipboard on read. To list all passwords or read a specific version of a password:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
./purse.sh l
|
|
|
|
./purse.sh r userName@1574723600
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create an archive for backup:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
./purse.sh b
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Restore an archive from backup:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
tar xvf purse*tar
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
