CLI Password Manager

I do not want to keep paying for password managers like 1Password and Dashlane.

CLI Password Manager gives you 4 simple commands for easily encrypting and decrypting a local password vault using OpenSSL.

Installation

git clone git@github.com:anthonybudd/CLI-Password-Manager.git
cd CLI-Password-Manager
echo "source ($pwd)/cli-password-manager" >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc

Set-up

clipm-nano
clipm-enc

clipm-nano This will open your password vault in nano and clipm-enc will use openssl to encrypt the password vault.

Commands

clipm

This allows you to view your passwords in your vault without.

alias clipm="openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -d -in /Users/$USER/.passwords.md.enc -out /Users/$USER/passwords.md && less /Users/$USER/passwords.md && rm -rf /Users/$USER/passwords.md"

clipm-dec

This command decrypts your password vault

alias clipm-dec="openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -d -in /Users/$USER/.passwords.md.enc -out /Users/$USER/passwords.md && rm -rf /Users/$USER/.passwords.md.enc"

clipm-nano

This will allow you to edit your passwords in nano

alias clipm-nano="nano -R /Users/$USER/passwords.md"

clipm-enc

This command will encrypt your password vault and delete the plaintext file

alias clipm-enc="openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -in /Users/$USER/passwords.md -out /Users/$USER/.passwords.md.enc && rm -rf /Users/$USER/passwords.md"
