xkcdpass Homebrew Formula

xkcdpass is an implementation of the XKCD 936 approach to password generation: a bunch of random words, instead of a short set of random characters that are hard to remember.

The source to xkcdpass is on GitHub, under a 3-Clause BSD license.

This Homebrew Formula simply automates installing it on a system with Homebrew, so that xkcdpass can be run directly.

Installing with Homebrew

brew install naosnz/xkcdpass/python-xkcdpass

Or brew tap naosnz/xkcdpass and then brew install python-xkcdpass.

Running xkcdpass

xkcdpass can be called with no arguments and will produce one potential password with default lengths. You can also encourage it to choose particular lengths of words and numbers of words.

See the xkcdpass --help output, and the xkcdpass README file for more details on options available.

Licensing

xkcdpass is available under an Apache 2.0 license. This Homebrew Formula to facilitate installing it is available under a MIT License; see the LICENSE file for the text of the MIT License.
