PwdStore
========

This application tries to be 100% compatible with [pass](http://www.passwordstore.org/)

You can install the application from:

- [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=com.zeapo.pwdstore) (the prefered way)
- [Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zeapo.pwdstore) (always lags behind)
- Using the apk file found at `app/app-release.apk` or build everything from source (always updated before Play Store, but usually after F-Droid)

Community
=========

A few ways to get in touch:

- [Github issues](https://github.com/zeapo/Android-Password-Store/issues), use it if you have a bug report, you do not understand how somehting works or feature request
- IRC : on irc://chat.freenode.net/Android-Password-Store (that means channel #Android-Password-Store on freenode), some of us hangout there
- [reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/androidpwd), want to discuss something and it's midnight, no one on irc and you really want to write more than a couple of lines? reddit is your way!

FAQ
====

- **Q:** What kind of repository can I clone from?
- **A:** Make sure to only clone from bare repositories (see [git-clone(1)](http://git-scm.com/docs/git-clone) for how to create a bare repository from an existing one). Otherwise the clone will fail.
- **Q:** I get a "Permission Denied" error when trying to import my ssh-key, why?
- **A:** ssh-key files are usually created with permissions set to `600`, meaning that only the creator of this key has the right to read from it. The application needs a read access, at least temporarily, make the permissions to `644`, import the key, then set them back to `600`.


How-To
======
*Note:* This section is work in progress

Clone using SSH-key, then decrypt a password
--------------------------------------------

<img src="tutorial_clone_ssh_then_decrypt.gif" alt="Clone And Decrypt" style="width:720px">


Features
========
- Clone an existing pass repository (ssh-key and user/pass support)
- List the passwords
- Handle the directories as categories
- Decrypt the password files (first line is the password, the rest is extra data)
- Add a new password to the current category (or no category if added at the root)
- Pull and Push changes to the remote repository
- Ability to change remote repository info

Libraries
=========
This project uses three libraries:

- [OpenKeyChain](https://github.com/open-keychain/open-keychain) for encryption and decryption of passwords.
    To download the library, run the following commands at the root of the project

        git submodule init
        git submodule update


- [JGit](http://www.eclipse.org/jgit/) a pretty good git lib
- [Apache's FileUtils](https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-io/) for files manipulations

TODOs
=====
- Create a new category
- Multi-select (for password deletion)
- Multiple password stores (multiple git repositories).

Needed
======
- UI enhancements: any UI changes or suggestions are welcome
