Add support for importing psafe3 files

Open donalhunt opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Password Safe (https://pwsafe.org/) uses the psafe3 fle format. It would be great to add support for importing from that file format.

Workaround in the meantime seems to be:

  1. Covert to keepass format using something like https://www.flyingpenguin.com/?p=23650
  2. Import the keepass file into Buttercup.

... or just export the psafe3 file to csv and import that.

Good idea! Some investigation would need to be done on the format to make sure it's practical to import. Importers can't include any binaries for non-node programs as bundling them in the desktop application is nigh on impossible. If it's entirely JS it should be fine.

The psafe3 format is documented at https://www.github.com/dol/node-passwordsafe/tree/master/doc%2FformatV3.txt

A node JS library is available in the same repository.
