Vault

Pypi Build Status codecov MIT licensed

Vault is a simple Python password manager. It allows you to securely save secrets with a simple CLI interface.

Features

  • Secrets are stored in an encrypted SQLite database with SQLCipher
  • Within the database, each password and notes are encrypted with a unique salt using AES-256 encryption with pycryptodome
  • Master key is hashed with a unique salt
  • Possibility to create an unlimited number of vaults
  • Clipboard cleared automatically
  • Automatic vault locking after inactivity
  • Password suggestions with password-generator-py
  • Import / Export in Json

Basic usage

Demo

Installation and setup

Vault 2.x requires sqlcipher to be installed on your machine.

MacOS

On MacOS, you can install sqlcipher with brew:

brew install sqlcipher

# Install sqlcipher3
SQLCIPHER_VERSION="0.5.3"
pip3 install sqlcipher3==$SQLCIPHER_VERSION

# If you are getting an error "Failed to build sqlcipher3", you would need to fix the build flags:
SQLCIPHER_PATH="$(brew --cellar sqlcipher)/$(brew list --versions sqlcipher | tr ' ' '\n' | tail -1)"
C_INCLUDE_PATH=$SQLCIPHER_PATH/include LIBRARY_PATH=$SQLCIPHER_PATH/lib pip3 install sqlcipher3==$SQLCIPHER_VERSION

Then install the vault:

pip3 install pyvault

# Run setup
vault

Ubuntu / Debian

On Ubuntu/Debian, you can install sqlcipher with apt:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y gcc python3-dev libsqlcipher-dev xclip

Then install the vault:

pip3 install pyvault

# Run setup
vault
