# Password Generator

https://github.com/king-tri-ton/gen-pass/assets/53092931/a581ebc1-f01f-4e7f-b4cb-a80fca51deb8

A simple password generator with a system tray icon. This Python script uses the **pystray** library to create a system tray icon. When the user clicks on the icon, it provides the option to generate a random password and copy it to the clipboard.

## Prerequisites

Make sure you have the required libraries installed:

```bash

pip install pystray Pillow pyperclip

```

## Compilation

To compile the script, you'll need to install PyInstaller first:

```bash

pip install pyinstaller

```

Then, you can use PyInstaller to create a standalone executable:

```bash

pyinstaller --onefile --noconsole --name="GenPass" --icon=C:\python\gen-pass\Logo.ico app.py

```

This will generate a standalone executable file named "GenPass.exe" without a console window.

## Usage

- Run the script.

- The script will create a system tray icon.

- Right-click on the icon to access the menu.

- Click on "Generate and copy" to generate a random password.

- The generated password is copied to the clipboard.

- Click on "Exit" to close the program.

## Customize

You can customize the password length and character set by modifying the **generate_password** function.

```python

def generate_password(length=12):

    # Customize the character set as needed

    all_characters = ['A', 'B', 'C', ...]

    password = random.sample(all_characters, length)

    password_str = ''.join(password)

    return password_str

```
