clipassgen - Console Smart Passwords Generator.
Smart passwords are not stored anywhere - they are generated on the fly. For a combination - login + secret phrase, or only using a secret phrase, you will always receive the same password from 10 to 1000 characters. This is as safe as possible. Your passwords are not stored anywhere, they are generated on the fly when requested.
Possibilities:
Smart Password generator (login + secret phrase):
Generates a recoverable smart password linked to login or name and secret phrase. To generate and restore, you need to remember login and secret phrase.
Smart Password Generator (secret phrase):
Recoverable password generator. The password will be linked to a secret phrase. The password is not stored anywhere and is generated on the fly. To generate or recover a password, you only need to remember the secret phrase.
Base Password Generator:
A common password generator. When generated, the password will always be different. It will be impossible to restore it.
Console manager of smart passwords that are not stored anywhere and are generated on the fly. Only the public key, login and password length are stored. You store the smart password under the desired login or just a name, and when received, enter the secret phrase and receive a generated smart password: clipassman.
Passwords generated and saved in clipassman will be identical to passwords generated in clipassgen.
To create your own smart password generator apps, you can use the library: smartpasslib.
pip install clipassgen
clipassgen
On some systems, when running the command pip install clipassgen
an error occurs, you can solve
it like this
pip install clipassgen --break-system-packages
clipassgen
or:
python app.py
python app.py -n 10
python app.py -n 10 -s "secret phrase"
python app.py -n 10 -s "secret phrase" -l "login or name"
