DisPass

******************************************************************************



DisPass is a password manager for GNU/Linux, \*BSD, MacOS X and Windows.

It can be used as any traditional password manager, but has one key

difference. DisPass does not store your passwords anywhere, so you

can never lose them. It creates strong and unique passphrases formed

from a master password and a label (and some optional parameters),

helping you get rid of the bad habit of using a single password for

multiple websites. Dispass is a console application, but also has a

simple graphical interface.

Quick start

==============================================================================



These are quick instructions for the impatient, just wanting to check

out DisPass. For full documentation on using **DisPass**, visit

http://dispass.org



Download

--------



Download and install DisPass from the Python Package Index with pip:



.. code:: console



   pip install --user dispass



Using DisPass for the first time

--------------------------------



For this example we will create a passphrase to use for a google account.



1. Create and save a label ``google`` to the labelfile:



   .. code:: console



       dispass add google



2. Generate the passphrase for the first time. Since you will need to

   register the passphrase with google we pass the ``--verify`` flag

   or simply ``-v`` so DisPass asks us to verify the password and we

   can avoid typing errors in the input password while creating the

   resulting passphrase for the first time:



   .. code:: console



       dispass generate --verify google



Mini screencast

---------------



Checkout the following mini screencast. In this demo the label is added

interactively.

equivalent to the simplified BSD and MIT/Expat licenses, with language

that was deemed unnecessary by the Berne convention removed.
