Enum AuthCredentialsStoreMode 

pub enum AuthCredentialsStoreMode {
    Keyring,
    File,
    Auto,
}

Preferred storage backend for credentials.

• Keyring: Use OS-specific secure storage (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager, Linux Secret Service). This is the default as it’s the most secure option.
• File: Use AES-256-GCM encrypted file (requires the file-storage feature or custom implementation)
• Auto: Try keyring first, fall back to file if unavailable

Variants

Keyring

Use OS-specific keyring service. This is the most secure option as credentials are managed by the OS and are not accessible to other users or applications.

File

Persist credentials in an encrypted file. The file is encrypted with AES-256-GCM using a machine-derived key.

Auto

Use keyring when available; otherwise, fall back to file.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for AuthCredentialsStoreMode

fn clone(&self) -> AuthCredentialsStoreMode

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Copy for AuthCredentialsStoreMode

impl Debug for AuthCredentialsStoreMode

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for AuthCredentialsStoreMode

fn default() -> Self

Platform-aware default:

• macOS: File — AES-256-GCM encrypted file with machine-derived key. Avoids macOS Keychain authorization popups that trigger on every new binary (including each release update). Users can opt into Keyring via credential_storage_mode in vtcode.toml.

• Linux / Windows / others: Auto — try OS keyring (Secret Service / Windows Credential Manager, no popups), fall back to encrypted file.

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

Inequality operator !=.

impl Serialize for AuthCredentialsStoreMode

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

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
