passlane-0.1.0 is not a library.

Passlane

A lightning-fast password generator for the command line

Features

Sign up for a new service in the web browser
Hit CMD + space and run passlane --> saves the password to the clipboard
Use the generated password from the clipboard
After successful signup: Open terminal and run passlane -s to save the password

Later on, when logging in to foobar.com:

Hit CMD + space and run passlane -g foobard.com --> copies foobar.com's password to clipboard
Use th password from clipboard to login

or alternatively

Let MacOS propose the saved password. It knows it because Passlane also syncs to the keychain.

Passlane uses the keyring crate to sync credentials to the operating system's keychain. Syncing should work on Linux, iOS, macOS, and Windows.

Use option -s together with -k to save the last generated password to the Passlane storage file and to the keychain:

passlane -s -k

To sync all Passlane stored options to the keychain use the -k option alone:

passlane -s -k

You can import credentials from a CSV file. With this approach, you can easily migrate from less elegant and often expensive commercial services.

First, make sure that the CSV file has a header line (1st line) with the following column titles:

The service field is the URL or name of the service. When importing from Dashlane, the only necessary preparation is to rename url to service.

To export the credentials to a CSV file and import the file into Passlane:

passlane --csv <path_to_csv_file>
