Very simple password manager for my python projects

MyPwd

Very simple password manager for my python projects.

I often forgot the passwords in my scripts and committed them to the repository. So I created a simple password manager so that it doesn't happen to me anymore.

1. Usage

Create file mypwd.json with passwords in your $HOME directory. For example C:\Users\jarberan\mypwd.json

{
  "mongo-uat": {
    "login": "appl",
    "password": "hS78#pbTgc#J.CQL",
    "server": "myserver-uat.com"
  },
  "mongo-dev": {
    "login": "appl",
    "password": "VacK>p3k3~t*c~RX",
    "server": "myserver-dev.com",
    "note": "Valid until end of month"
  }
}

Now you can access your secrets from python code and you will never commit secret anymore.

import mypwd

login, password, server = mypwd.get_values("mongo-dev", ["login", "password", "server"])

uri = f"mongodb://{login}:{password}@{server}/admin?retryWrites=true&w=majority"

1.1 Keep your passwords safe and encrypt mypwd.json with GPG

You should store your passwords in encrypted file mypwd.json.gpg instead of in plain text file mypwd.json.

1. install GPG (if you are using GitBash probably you already have gpg installed)
2. create key-pair gpg --gen-key and assign it to your e-mail

Now you can encrypt your mypwd.json with your gpg key:

mypwd encrypt -e [e-mail]

and later on you can decrypt it back for some modification:

mypwd decrypt

2. Installation

Installation is simple:

pip install mypwd

or

python setup.py install
