Choose your password wisely

At the very first run, totp asks for a password for a new database. It's located at $HOME/.rustotpony/db.json (don't be confused by json extension it's a binary file in fact). If you forget the password or want to change it, you have to remove $HOME/.rustotpony directory. It's not convenient, but I'm going to improve usability and add a command for changing the password.

Basic scenario

1. Retrieve a secret key from your TOTP provider (it must be encoded with base32, for example, GEZDGMZSGE2TKCQ=)

   $ # Creating a fake secret key for demo purposes
   $ echo 123321555 | base32
   GEZDGMZSGE2TKNIK
   

2. Add new generator with totp add <NAME> (you will be asked for a secret and a password)

   $ # Adding a new TOTP generator
   $ totp add demo
   Enter your secret code:
   Enter your database pass:
   New application created: demo
   

   If it's not the first run, you'll be asked for a password twice: for opening the database and for saving it.

3. Use totp list to check your secrets

   $ # Listing all secrets in the database
   $ totp list
   Enter your database pass:
   +------+------------------+----------+
   | name | key              | username |
   +------+------------------+----------+
   | demo | GEZDGMZSGE2TKNIK |          |
   +------+------------------+----------+
   

4. Use totp dash or just totp for real-time dashboard

   $ # Display real-time dashboard with all generators
   $ totp
   Enter your database pass:
   Welcome to RusTOTPony realtime dashboard! Press ^C to quit.
   [=============================================               ]
   009216 demo
   

5. After hitting ^C it'll clean up the dashboard

   $ totp
   Enter your database pass:
   I won't tell anyone about this 🤫
