Password Manager

• This is a CLI application which stores and manages your passwords in a encrypted form.
• I'm using hybrid Encryption to encrpt the file data.
• Generate the AES256 key and encrypt all the file data with this key.
• Encrypt this AES256 key with public key. which can only be decrypted the respective private key.

Setup the project

• Step 1: Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/VivekSite/password_manager.git

• Step 2: Install dependencies

pip install -r requirement.txt

• Step 3: Now run the program

./start.sh

How To Use

• Before running the program make sure you have your configuration file ready.
• Create a .config file touch .config and put this configurations.

{
  "private_key_path": "~/password_manager/private_key.pem",
  "public_key_path": "~/password_manager/public_key.pem",
  "storage_path": "~/password_manager/.storage",
  "aes_key_path": "~/password_manager/aes_key.bin"
}

• here we have to configure the path to private and public key(we will create it later).
• storage_path is the location of directory where you want to store the files.
• aes_key_path is path to you encryption key(we will create it later).

• Object_Key search is case insensitive and it will return all the matching Objects.
