SIMP

Simply Interpolated Master Password is a custom password generator based on an algorithm of your choosing

How does SIMP work ?

SIMP will generate you a strong password for each website, based on your own algorithm. Allowing you to reverse-engineer it yourself if you ever need to.

How to use SIMP ?

Config

First of all, you need launch the CLI with simp config to make a new config.

provide a master password. This password will be used to generate the other passwords.
choose an algorithm, using the logic blocks and modifiers that we provide.

Once the config is done, the info you entered will be saved in ~/.config/simp/config.json, allowing you to load it from the regular cli.

Using the cli

You can start using the cli by just typing simp (if the binary is in your path) or also using one of the many flags we have implemented.
If you need to see a list of all the flags for ovverriding the config, you can always type simp -h
Flags like -a, -p, -w are used to override a certain value in the config.
They will not change the config file, but will use the value you provided.
We assume that you want to load the config file if provide at least one override.
A quick way of just generating a password is to just type simp -w website.com

Example password generation:

Master password: Toto
Website used: https://www.gmail.com\ Algorithm: {domainName.firstLetter.toUpper}{master}{domainName.length}{domainExtension.lastLetter}

Password generated: GToto5m

Explaination:

domainName.firstLetter : g,
toUppercase : G,
master : Toto : Toto
domainName.length : len(gmail) : 5
domainExtension.lastLetter+1: .com .lastLetter : m
