# dpw the dynamic password manager
Inspired by [`pass`](https://www.passwordstore.org/) and designed to be
compatible out of the box.
The main point of this is to provide a somewhat familiar interface for
pluggable backends. Secondary benefits that people may be interested in is the
ISC license, so you can modify the `dpw` script without giving me your changes
even if you use it in a commercial product. ( Though, it might be appreciated to
get code back! )
For instance, one could write a plugin that talks to Lastpass, Bitwarden
Hasicorp's Vault, or similar.
There are some mild changes in the interface from `pass`, a full list
of commands and options are available with the `-h` command line flag.
The environment variable `DPW_BACKEND` defaults to `dpw-gpg` which provides
the `pass` compatible backend. Since it's just a call to another executable
the backends can be written in any language.
## Backends
The `dpw-gpg` shell script should be short enough to read to give you an
idea for implementing your own. That being said the interface is blindingly
simple, accept the following four commands:
* list
* dump a list of the available keys, supporting arguments for sub keys
may be preferred by users but isn't necessary, `find` will still work
for them.
* insert `<key>`
* Read from stdin
* show `<key>`
* Dump to stdout
* rm `<key>`
`dpw` will take care of all the additional commands by wrapping the four
above as needed.
## dmenu script
There's also a small dmenu script included that makes copying or typing
out passwords and OTP tokens very quick and easy
