click-keyring 0.2.0

A click option decorator to store and retrieve credentials using keyring.

click-keyring

click-keyring provides a customized click password option decorator to store and retrieve credentials using keyring.

When a command is decorated with click-keyring:

• click-keyring generates a keyring service name using the command name by default (this can be customized).
• click-keyring uses the service name to look up an existing password using keyring.
• If an existing password is found, it is used as the param value.
• If not found, the user is prompted to enter a password.
• The new password is then saved to the keyring backend.

Installation

pip install click-keyring

Example

See the examples folder for additional examples.

import click
from click_keyring import keyring_option


@keyring_option('-p', '--password')
@click.option('-u', '--username', prompt='Username')
@click.command()
def simple_cmd(username, password):
    """
    Example of click_keyring using defaults.

    The password will be saved to keyring with service name
    matching the click command name (in this case "simple_cmd").

    This can be overridden by setting `prefix` and/or `keyring_option`
     on the decorator.
    """
    click.echo()
    click.echo('** Command Params. User: {}, Password: {}'.format(username, password))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    simple_cmd()

When executed the first time, both username and password will be prompted.

~/g/c/examples python ./simple.py
Username: testuser
Password:

** Command Params. User: testuser, Password: testpw
~/g/c/examples

Subsequent executions using the same username will retrieve the password from the keyring backend.

~/g/c/examples python ./simple.py
Username: testuser

** Command Params. User: testuser, Password: testpw
~/g/c/examples

Service Names

By default, the value of the click.Command.name attribute is used as the service name.
The name is based on the function name or, if provided, the name argument on the @click.command decorator.

@keyring_option('-p', '--password')
@click.option('-u', '--username', prompt='Username')
@click.command()
def simple_cmd(username, password):
    # service name will be the value of `simple_cmd.name`
    # This will likely be "simple-cmd" as click replaces underscores with hyphens.
    pass

A custom service name can be specified using the prefix argument.

@keyring_option('-p', '--password', prefix='customnservice')
@click.option('-u', '--username', prompt='Username')
@click.command()
def simple_cmd(username, password):
    # service name will be "customnservice"
    pass

Other options on the command can be included in the service name using the other_options argument. This is an iterable of option names. The values provided for those options is appended to the service name.

@keyring_option('-p', '--password', prefix='customnservice', other_options=('hostname',))
@click.option('-n', '--hostname')
@click.option('-u', '--username', prompt='Username')
@click.command()
def simple_cmd(username, hostname, password):
    # service name will be "customnservice_[value provided for hostname]"
    pass
