Deterministic password generator
Project description
Master
Generates deterministic passwords.
This is inspired by spectre.app but simpler.
This uses a sha256 hashed combination of
username + password + service + version
(version
is now locked to
0
) to generate the same password, over and over again, thus
eliminating the need to store, maintain and back up other generated
passwords.
jpedro.github.io/master has the browser experience.
The used service name list is kept under the file
~/.config/master/list.txt
(or whatever MASTER_LIST
points to)
purely for autocompletion, which will be added later.
Eventually, the idea is to create a simple browser extension that uses the URL domain name as the service.
Install
pip install master
Usage
$ master --help
NAME
master — Generates deterministic passwords for services

Environment variables
Name | Default |
---|---|
MASTER_LIST |
~/.config/master/list.txt |
MASTER_USERNAME |
(None) [1] |
MASTER_PASSWORD |
(None) [1] |
MASTER_SEPARATOR |
- |
MASTER_LENGTH |
6 |
MASTER_CHUNKS |
6 |
Using these default settings, it will generate a password that's 41 characters long. 6 chunks of 6 character long with 5 separators in between.
Note [1] If you don't set the
MASTER_USERNAME
or theMASTER_PASSWORD
you will be prompted for them.
Todos
- Make the
MASTER_LIST
a directory to avoid git conflicts. - Integrate the user name with Oauth2 providers.
Maybe the
sub
after an authentication flow can be used instead of the flat username. Cons: the email provider can change for the same email address. Plus, not 100% sure if one wants to tie passwords to an email. - Lock (close) the master page after 30 seconds of inactivity.
