Structured info in the encrypted file
I think that the encrypted password file will beneficiate from being structured, at the moment we are only storing 3 arbitrary fields:
- name
- username
- notes
i would prefer if this fields where configurable and if I could add more on some special account answer to the mysterious question, digicode for a door, ...
I think this could easily be done if the encrypted files were structured. There are few file formats that are both human readable and easily parsed in Python:
- INI ConfigParser
- CSV CSV
Python has a parser included for both of them in stdlib.
I agree. Let's go with CSV.
json is also a good candidate because it has better utf8 support and is more js friendly this can be very useful in the usecase "use kip on wife's laptop".
