# Password Manager Script
This is a simple Bash script for managing passwords using the `pass` password manager tool. The script provides a user-friendly menu interface to add, show, edit, and delete passwords stored in the `pass` password store.
## Dependencies
Before using the script, ensure you have the following dependencies installed:
- `pass`: The password manager used to store and retrieve passwords securely.
- `fzf`: A command-line fuzzy finder used for interactive selection.
- `jq`: A lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor.
- `xclip`: A command-line utility for interacting with the X11 clipboard.
- `tree`: A command-line utility for displaying directory structures.
### Installing Dependencies
#### Debian/Ubuntu:
```bash
sudo apt install pass fzf jq xclip tree
```
#### Fedora:
```bash
sudo dnf install pass fzf jq xclip tree
```
#### Arch Linux:
```bash
sudo pacman -Sy pass fzf jq xclip tree
```
## GPG Key Setup
To use `pass`, you need to have a GPG keypair generated. Here's how to set up GPG keys:
1. **Generate GPG Keys**:
```bash
gpg --full-gen-key
```
Follow the prompts to generate your GPG key pair.
- **List GPG Keys**:
```bash
gpg -k --keyid-format long
```
Identify your GPG key ID (e.g., `3AA5C34371567BD2`).
- **Export GPG Keys**:
```bash
gpg --export --armor YOUR_GPG_KEY_ID > public_key.asc
```
```bash
gpg --export-secret-keys --armor YOUR_GPG_KEY_ID > private_key.asc
```
- **Import GPG Keys**:
```bash
gpg --import public_key.asc
```
```bash
gpg --import private_key.asc
```
## Initialize pass
```bash
pass init YOUR_GPG_KEY_ID
```
## Menu Options
1. **Add Password**: Allows you to add a new password to the password store. You can either generate a random password or enter a password manually.
2. **Show Password**: Displays a list of saved passwords. You can select a password to view its details and copy it to the clipboard.
3. **Edit Password**: Allows you to edit an existing password. You can generate a new random password or enter a new password manually.
4. **Delete Password**: Deletes a password from the password store.
5. **Exit**: Exits the password manager script.
## Usage
To use the password manager script, simply run the script in your terminal:
```bash
./password_manager.sh
```
Follow the on-screen instructions to navigate through the menu options and manage your passwords efficiently.
