Manage and generate one-time passwords for multiple accounts.

Authenticator

Manage and generate one-time passwords for multiple accounts.

Prerequisites

• Go >= 1.22

Keyring

Support OS X, Linux/BSD (dbus) and Windows.

OS X

The OS X implementation depends on the /usr/bin/security binary for interfacing with the OS X keychain. It should be available by default.

Linux and *BSD

The Linux and *BSD implementation depends on the [Secret Service][SecretService] dbus interface, which is provided by GNOME Keyring.

It's expected that the default collection login exists in the keyring, because it's the default in most distros. If it doesn't exist, you can create it through the keyring frontend program Seahorse:

• Open seahorse
• Go to File > New > Password Keyring
• Click Continue
• When asked for a name, use: login

Install

go get go.nhat.io/authenticator

Data Storage and Security

The accounts are grouped as namespace, the list of namespaces is stored in $HOME/.authenticator.toml. The content is in plain text and in toml format.

For example

namespace = ["namespace1", "namespace2"]

The namespace data, such as namespace name, and accounts are stored in the keyring in go.nhat.io/authenticator service and <namespace> key.

The totp secret of each account is stored in the keyring in go.nhat.io/authenticator service and <namespace>/<account> key.
