Description

This project aims to extend gopass, the standard UNIX password manager, by adding support for the FreeDesktop.org Secret Service API over D-Bus. The goal is to allow gopass to interface seamlessly with applications and desktop environments that adhere to the Secret Service specification, providing a unified and secure credential storage backend. By implementing this feature, gopass can function as a drop-in replacement for existing Secret Service providers such as GNOME Keyring and KWallet, enabling better cross-platform integration and expanding its usability in graphical environments and scripts that rely on D-Bus for secrets management.

Goals

• a D-Bus service implementation that complies with the Secret Service API
• on-demand service activation
• nheko (and similar) can use gopass to store secrets
