# gpg-notify
This command line tool (future daemon) watches `gpg-agent` logs and notifies you when a smartcard action is required or what process requested pinentry.
## Status
Super early WIP.
## Installing
```console
$ go get -u github.com/mafredri/gpg-notify
```
## Running
1. Make sure to Enable log file monitoring
2. Run `gpg-notify`
- Actually `cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/mafredri/gpg-notify && gpg-notify` for now (because images...)
3. Make sure gpg-agent is restarted if it's already running
- `gpgconf --kill gpg-agent`
## Enable log file monitoring
Modify `~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf`:
```
log-file socket:///Users/myuser/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent.log
debug-pinentry
debug 1024
```
## TODO
- Better state handling
- Display more detailed information about the process that invoked pinentry or smartcard
- Daemonize this tool
- Move out notifications into separate project?
- Attribute icons
- Think about security aspects:
- Detection (and notificon) when gpg-agent / scdaemon is restarted
- Only allow gpg-agent / scdaemon to connect and write to socket
