Password Store

pass is a very simple password store that keeps passwords inside gpg2(1) encrypted files inside a simple directory tree residing at ~/.password-store. The pass utility provides a series of commands for manipulating the password store, allowing the user to add, remove, edit, synchronize, generate, and manipulate passwords

    pass init "$masterpass"

    # To insert a new password
    pass insert Category/Name

    # To delete a password
    pass rm Category/Name

    # To edit a password
    pass edit Category/Name

    # To see current password
    pass Category/Name

Duplicati

Currently (April/2022) Duplicati has an issue related to Python. In MacOS 12.3.1 (Monterey), Python 2.7 was removed from the OS, which cause Duplicati to not work, as it relies on this python version installed system wide. To be able to run it (and when the computer is started)

  1. Copy the net.duplicati.server.plist file from 'tools' folder and save it to /Library/LaunchAgents
  2. Access Duplicate in the browser with http://localhost:8200

  3. Add a new action: Open Finder Items
  4. Select as Open With the app you want to use
  5. Save the Quick Action
