Bytesized Password Manager

Welcome to Oneword!

• This is a small project made to easily store and retrieve passwords locally

• The source code is written entirely in Python

• In addition to inbuilt Python libraries, the libraries used by the Python scripts are:

  1. Pycryptodomex -- For cryptography (https://www.pycryptodome.org/src/introduction)
  2. TinyDB -- For storage (https://tinydb.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html)
  3. All-escapes -- For representing binary escapes in text (https://pypi.org/project/all-escapes/)

• The only thing to remember is to keep noting down the passphrase generated for every session. This is done for security reasons

Installation

1. Download all the files in the repo
2. Open a CLI(Command Line Interface) or Terminal
3. Run the main.py file
4. In the case of running Oneword for the first time, use the passphrase: secret-pass-phrase
5. After finishing the current session, note down the new random passphrase generated (preferably on paper or a notepad). This is the passphrase to be used for logging in to the next session. The master passphrase changes each session to maintain security.
