Enum PassphraseCachePolicy 

pub enum PassphraseCachePolicy {
    Always,
    Session,
    Duration,
    Never,
}

Passphrase caching policy.

Controls how auths-sign caches the passphrase between invocations:

• always: Store in OS keychain permanently until explicitly cleared.
• session: Rely on the in-memory agent (Tier 1/2) — prompt once per agent lifetime.
• duration: Store in OS keychain with a TTL (see PassphraseConfig::duration).
• never: Always prompt interactively.

Variants

Always

Store passphrase in OS keychain permanently.

Session

Cache passphrase in the running agent’s memory — prompt once per agent lifetime.

Duration

Store passphrase in OS keychain with a configurable TTL (default).

Chosen as the default so unconfigured users get macOS Keychain + Touch ID caching out of the box, matching the UX of other keychain-backed developer tools. impl Default for PassphraseConfig supplies the complementary defaults (duration = "1h", biometric = true on macOS). Users who explicitly opt into Session via ~/.auths/config.toml retain the previous prompt-each-time behavior.

Never

Never cache — always prompt.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for PassphraseCachePolicy

fn clone(&self) -> PassphraseCachePolicy

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for PassphraseCachePolicy

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for PassphraseCachePolicy

fn default() -> PassphraseCachePolicy

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for PassphraseCachePolicy

fn deserialize<__D>( __deserializer: __D, ) -> Result<PassphraseCachePolicy, <__D as Deserializer<'de>>::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Eq for PassphraseCachePolicy

impl PartialEq for PassphraseCachePolicy

fn eq(&self, other: &PassphraseCachePolicy) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for PassphraseCachePolicy

fn serialize<__S>( &self, __serializer: __S, ) -> Result<<__S as Serializer>::Ok, <__S as Serializer>::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
