Functionality to replace password in keyring store

Open takluyver opened this issue 8 years ago • 9 comments

If you have keyring installed, and no password in your .pypirc file, flit will prompt you for your password the first time you upload, and then store it with keyring and reuse it for future uploads. But if you type the password incorrectly, or you change your password on the server, flit will still try to reuse the password it has stored. You would have to use the platform UI, which is often unfamiliar, to find and change/remove the stored password.

Is there any irony in the fact that https://github.com/glyph/secretly was the first project I released using flit, a day after you filed this issue? :) (I did not read it at the time.)

Ha! I'm flattered that you're using it :-)

Just commenting since I just struggled to find this myself on windows it's in the Credential Manager (Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Credential Manager):

  • Run (Windows + R)
  • Type control /name Microsoft.CredentialManager and enter, find the row with pypi.org and hit remove
