This emacs package improves on the user interface for password-store.el (see https://www.passwordstore.org/), adding a friendly transient pop-up.
Here’s what that looks like:
The package adds a bunch of useful features, including:
- A minor mode for editing/inserting password files
- Changes to password files are auto-committed to git
- Easy browsing and viewing of entries
- Inserting multi-line passwords
- Generating passwords with arguments (e.g. length, no-symbols)
- Showing password QR code inside emacs
(package-vc-install "https://github.com/rjekker/password-store-menu")Config with use-package:
(use-package password-store-menu
:config (password-store-menu-enable)
:custom (password-store-menu-key "C-c p"))Or without use-package:
(require 'password-store-menu)
(custom-set-variables '(password-store-menu-key "C-c p"))
(password-store-menu-enable)By default, the password-store popup menu will be bound to the key C-c p. You can configure this (see above).
