Jimpass 0.0.1a0

A universal password manager interface, powered by Rofi

This project was heavily inspired by and builds on top of the ideas in bitwarden-rofi. Be sure to check it out!

Autotype, copy, and manage(soon) your credentials from multiple providers through a single launcher.

There is no doubt password managers make security online better and easier, yet their use involves a lot of moving, searching and clicking. This is tedious at best, and depending on the context, they'll require additional software just to do some good old copy/pasting. In my experience it's really hard to convince someone to switch from their universal 8 year old muscle-memory-typed password, over to installing 2 apps and a browser extension which require a different search and click choreography to get similar results.

The people behind bitwarden-rofi nailed it by bridging this UX gap for Bitwarden users. But, what if I don't use Bitwarden, or even worse, what if I need to use multiple managers? That's where Jim comes into play.

Supported Managers

• Bitwarden
• LastPass

The architecture allows anyone to extend Jim to use their password manager, provided there's a CLI for it. See the currently implemented ones

Roadmap

• Customizable keybindings --- For actions such as copy_username, type_password, etc
• Templated item display --- Choose how Rofi displays items. Eg "Bitwarden: {name} {username}"
• Better testing and CI
• Context based management --- Manage your managers from rofi itself
• Encrypted in-memory storage -- Duh...

Dependencies

• python3.6+
• rofi
• xdotool
• xclip / wl-copy / xsel

Jim communicates with each password manager through specific CLIs. Only install and configure those you use.

• Bitwarden
• LastPass

Installation

For now, you'll have to install locally using pip or setup.py

git clone https://github.com/remyrd/jimpass
cd jimpass
pip install .
# or
python setup.py install
