mpw 0.3

Installation

This package requires Python 3 (tested with 3.4) and uses scrypt, cryptography (you need a compiler for both), click, and pyperclip.

Installation with pip:

$ pip install mpw

Or better, use pipsi:

$ pipsi install --python `which python3` mpw

This app copies the password to the clipboard. This should work out-of-the-box on OS X and Windows. On Linux, mpw makes use of the xclip or xsel commands, which should come with the os. Otherwise run:

$ sudo apt-get install xclip
$ # or
$ sudo apt-get install xsel

Alternatively, the gtk or PyQT4 modules can be installed.

Binary executables (e.g., an installer for Windows) may follow.

Usage

$ # Add a user
$ mpw adduser Alice
Enter master password:
Confirm master password:
Added user "Alice".
# Add a site for Alice
$ mpw addsite test-site
Enter master password for "Alice":
Added site "test-site" for user "Alice".
$ # Actually get the password
$ mpw get test-site
Enter master password for "Alice":
Password for "test-site" for user "Alice" was copied to the clipboard.
$ # You can also pipe a password to other commands:
$ mpw get -e server-root | sudo -S vim /etc/crontab
