Design Principles

Gopass is a versatile command line based password manager that is being developed with the following principles in mind:

  • Easy: For technical users (i.e. those who are used to the command line) it should be easy to get started with gopass.
  • Secure: Security is hard. We aim to make it as easy as possible while still providing a good level of protection against common adversaries. Caution: If your personal threat level is very high, we might not offer a good tool for you.
  • Extensible: While Gopass includes a fair amount of useful features, we can't cover every use-case. To support more special use cases we want to provide a clean and simple API to integration gopass into your own binaries.

Installation

Please see docs/setup.md.

If you have Go 1.18 (or greater) installed:

go install github.com/gopasspw/gopass@latest

(and make sure your $GOBIN is in your $PATH.)

WARNING: Please prefer releases, unless you want to contribute to the development of gopass. The master branch might not be stable and can contain breaking changes without any notice.

Getting Started

Either initialize a new git repository or clone an existing one.

Upgrade

To use the self-updater run:

gopass update

or to upgrade with Go installed, run:

go install github.com/gopasspw/gopass@latest

Otherwise, use the setup docs mentioned in the installation section to reinstall the latest version.

Development

This project uses GitHub Flow. In other words, create feature branches from master, open an PR against master, and rebase onto master if necessary.

We aim for compatibility with the latest stable Go Release only.

While this project is maintained by volunteers in their free time we aim to triage issues weekly and release a new version at least every quarter.

Community

gopass is developed in the open. Here are some of the channels we use to communicate and contribute:

Integrations

Mobile apps

  • pass - The inspiration for this project, by Jason A. Donenfeld. gopass is a drop-in replacement for pass and can be used interchangeably (mostly!).
  • passage - passage is a fork of password-store that uses age as a backend instead of GnuPG. gopass has some amount of support for passage but can not be used fully interchangeably as of today. This might change in the future.

Contributing

We welcome any contributions. Please see the CONTRIBUTING.md file for instructions on how to submit changes.
