No way to disable keyring usage.

Open zelch opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

If a system keyring is supported, there is currently no way to prevent constant prompts to store your password.

Expected Behavior

There should be some way to tell gimme-aws-creds not to keep prompting, or to not use the keyring at all.

Current Behavior

If you do not wish to store your password in the system keyring, you have to keep saying so every single time you use gimme-aws-creds.

Possible Solution

PR incoming.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

Remove any passwords currently stored in the system keyring for gimmie-aws-creds.

Authenticate with gimme-aws-creds, say no to saving your password, then authenticate with gimme-aws-creds again.

The prompt continues.

Context

My company policy does not permit storage of the Okta password in a keyring, and I am currently unable to recommend that we switch to gimme-aws-creds given the likelihood that users will eventually say yes just to shut it up.
