A HUD-style interface for pass on macOS

PassHUD

A HUD-style fuzzy-finder interface for zx2c4's pass on macOS. Copies passwords to clipboard. Depends on pass being installed and configured.

Usage

Run the PassHUD application, then open PassHUD's window by clicking its lock menu bar icon, or by using its default keyboard shorcut of ⌘ + /.

PassHUD fuzzy-finds passwords as you type. Click passwords to copy them to the clipboard or just hit Enter once the password is highlighted. PassHUD keeps recently used passwords at the top of the list for easy access.

Passwords are written to the clipboard directly by pass and are never seen by PassHUD. Default pass clipboard clearing behavior applies.

Installation

Download and install the latest release from a DMG on the releases page.

Configuration

PassHUD can be configured with an optional config file that can be created at one of the following paths:

• ~/.PassHUD
• ~/.config/PassHUD/config

The config file is YAML and can set environment variables for PassHUD's execution of pass, and an optional path to pass itself. If a path isn't provided pass must be on the $PATH. All fields in the config are optional. Here's an exhaustive example config file:

---
version: 1

pass:
  commandPath: ~/a/non/default/path/to/pass
  env:
    - name: PASSWORD_STORE_DIR
      value: ~/a/non/default/password/store/path
