Browser integration #7

Closed comtom closed 8 years ago

comtom commented 9 years ago

It would be nice to add an API interface, so a browser extension can access to DB data and autofill forms, just like lastpass but locally. Do you think it's possible to add this feature to the roadmap?

Hello @comtom

There is already an API. The API is in python. You can check database.py. However integrate with a browser you'd need a web server that runs Python and have GPG installed there as well.

It may be in the roadmap to have a web-server code so you can run your own web-server locally and have a plugin which handle does requests.

On the other hand having a browser plugin is likely to make your pyssword database less secure.

Hello @comtom

Not sure if it is worth doing browser integration for now. I will be closing the issue. Feel free to open new ones if you still think it is relevant.

Thanks
