Passpie : Multiplatform Command-line Password Manager

Passpie is a command line tool to manage passwords from the terminal with a colorful and configurable interface. Use a master passphrase to decrypt login credentials, copy passwords to clipboard, syncronize with a git repository, check the state of your passwords, and more.

Password files are encrypted using GnuPG and saved into yaml text files. Passpie supports LinuxOSX and Windows.

What does it look like? Here is an example of a simple Passpie usage:

passpie init
passpie add foo@example.com –random
passpie add bar@example.com –pattern “[0-9]{5}[a-z]{5}”
passpie update foo@example –comment “Hello”
passpie
passpie copy foo@example.com
