simple-password-manager

This is a simple (as the name suggests) and secure password manager written in c that store data in a single JSON file encrypted/decrypted by gnupg.

Installation

If you don't have gnupg installed, install it:

# On arch based distros:
pacman -S gnupg

# On debian based distros:
apt install gnupg

OBS: gnupg must be in $PATH as gpg;

And if you don't have a keypair, generate one:

gpg --full-gen-key

To view keys fingerprint:

gpg --list-keys <YOUR NAME OR EMAIL>

Next, edit src/config.h's PASSWORD_FILE and GPG_RECIPIENT macros to specify, respectively, the absolute file path where passwords will be stored and the 40 digit hexadecimal fingerprint of your public key.

Finally, compile and install:

make && sudo make install

OBS: make install will copy spm and spm-dmenu to /usr/bin by default, if you want to change installation target edit config.mk (or just make and do whatever you want with spm and spm-dmenu).
