NAME¶
pwman3 - command line password manager
SYNOPSIS¶
pwman3 [OPTIONS]
pwman3 --help
DESCRIPTION¶
Pwman3 aims to provide a simple but powerful command line interface for password
management. It allows one to store your password in a SQLite database locked
by a master password which can be encrypted with different algorithms (e.g
AES, Blowfish, DES3, IDEA, etc.).
OPTIONS¶
- -h, --help
- Display help message and exit.
- -c FILE, --config FILE
- Read the configuration from FILE instead of the default
~/.pwman3/config.
- -d DATABASE, --database DATABASE
- When using the default SQLite backend, use DATABASE file path to
read/store passwords.
- -e ALGO, --encryption=ALGO
- Use ALGO to encrypt data. Possible values are: AES , ARC2, ARC4, Blowfish,
CAST, DES, DES3, IDEA, RC5. The default encryption algorithm used is
AES.
- -k, --convert
- Convert old DB format to version >= 0.4. The database that will be
converted is the one found in the config file, or the one given as command
line argument.
- -O, --output OUTPUT
- Use OUTPUT as file path for the newly created database after
converting.
