Fpas

fpas is command line software helps you create password from some text

Installation

cargo install fpas

Usage

create password with text

fpas your_text

and loop feature

fpas -l 5 your_text

create password from binary file

fpas -f ./file

using --chain with -l (or --loop) to generate long password

fpas --chain -l 10 your_text

Use -i or --input to cover your key

let consider this command 7z a zipfile folder -p$(fpas 'your_key'): after you'd enter the command, your shell will keep all commands and options in history (use history command to print history) which increases security risks.

To solve this problem simply use -i.

fpas -i
> your_key
&9@a7df@5977b5b009b3@06#054c7f7@3363b##0c...

after you have seen > just enter the commands and options which you prefer. Then just press enter on your keyboard.

Use cases

You might want to create a compressed file with a password. To ensure the strongest security, you need to use a very long password that includes a variety of characters.

So, I created this software to solve this problem and create strong passwords with a simple method. However, it actually just transferred the weakness to other points.

There is example cases with command line.

7z a file.7z file -p$(fpas helloG)

zip file.zip file -P $(fpas hello)
