Provide pass as KDE Wallet integration backend

Open MurzNN opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

This project provide great app for manage pass data, but KDE have separate password manager - KDE Wallet. Is it possible to reuse some parts of code from this app and provide pass storage as KDE Wallet integration backend? Also I fill an issue in KDE KWalletManager tracker about this feature: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=399232

First of all, it should be destinguished between pass (the password store back-end and command line tool) and QtPass (the GUI tool that uses pass as back-end, and has rebuilt some parts for Windows compatibility)?

If I understand your question right, you want to reuse some code parts from QtPass: It is GPL-3 licensed. Go for it!

If you want to suggest making the KDE Wallet integration part of the QtPass project, I think you would have to elaborate your Idea a bit more. Because I think this should rather be a separate project.

I want to suggest making the KDE Wallet integration part of the QtPass project, for help integrate pass backend into KDE Wallet app via reuse parts of QtPass source code and libraries. Because now I (and many others) must continue use KDE Wallet in KDE environment with separate from pass password storage file, because it have good integration in all KDE apps. I'm not a programmer, so can't help with developing the code, but can help with bug testing.

Does this mean that my applications will use QtPass instead of KWallet with this integration?
