Pysswords: Manage your passwords from the terminal
Pysswords lets you manage your login credentials from the terminal. Password files are saved into GPG encrypted files into the database path. Only with the passphrase used to create the pyssword database you can decrypt password file. If you want to know more about how pysswords works, check the Under the Hood section.

Encryption
Encryption is done using GPG. Take a look at pysswords.crypt module to know more.
Database path
The default database path is at ~/.pysswords. If you want to change the database path at database creation pass the –database option to pysswords
pysswords --init --database "/path/to/database/"Database structure
Pysswords database is structured in a directory hierachy. Every credential is a directory named with credential name inside the database path.
An empty database would look like this:
pysswords --database /tmp/pysswords --init
tree /tmp/pysswords -la
# /tmp/pysswords
# └── .gnupg
# ├── pubring.gpg
# ├── random_seed
# ├── secring.gpg
# └── trustdb.gpgAfter adding a new credential the database would look like this:
pysswords --database /tmp/pysswords -a
#Name: github
#Login: octocat
#Password: **********
#Comments [optional]:
tree /tmp/pysswords -la
