encryption-vault 0.1.0

Tkinter desktop app for managing PGP keys, AES vault, and credential storage.

Encryption Vault

Encryption Vault packages the existing PDFSage desktop utility for managing PGP key material, AES passwords, and credential storage into a redistributable Python module. Installing the project from PyPI exposes a console entry point named encryption that launches the Tkinter user interface.

Features

• Generate, import, and store PGP key pairs with optional secure vault persistence.
• Encrypt, decrypt, sign, and verify messages using GnuPG.
• AES-256 encryption helpers for text and files.
• Built-in password and payment card vault backed by the system keyring service.
• Hash calculator for MD5 and SHA-256 integrity checks.

Installation

pip install encryption-vault

Ensure you have a working GnuPG installation (gpg available on your PATH) before launching the application.

Usage

After the package is installed, launch the GUI from any terminal:

encryption

This command invokes the packaged Tkinter application. The first launch will prompt you to create or select a master account vaulted in the local keyring.

Development

Install dependencies and run the app locally without packaging:

pip install -r requirements.txt
python encryption.py

To build the wheel and source distribution:

python -m build

The project is configured to publish to PyPI via the workflow.yml GitHub Actions workflow once valid credentials are provided.
