There was this discussion related to this topic.
Someone implemented a Perl replacement for oathtool
, which itself isn't compatible with the steam 'digits=5' option in the URI. The tool Perl otptool
instead, understands this URI parameter.
There was a commit in the develop
branch which added the new method, though it was quite a ride to get it to work.
First, backup and replace the otp.bash
in /usr/lib/password-store/extensions/
with the new v1.1.2 file from commit 0aadd4c
Install the Perl Pass::OTP
tool.
For Debian install libpass-otp-perl
(I did not test this)
For Arch install perl-pass-otp
from AUR (tested, works)
Check if installed correctly and which otptool
returns the correct path.
Now add your otpauth:// URI to pass BUT replace steam
to totp
otpauth://steam/... -> otpauth://totp/...
Finally the creation of Steam TOTP secrets works with pass-otp.
I was able to extract the double authentication information from my steam account using the https://github.com/Jessecar96/SteamDesktopAuthenticator software.
I used to be able to put the link otpauth:// on Keepass, which worked fine and generated a Steam-specific authentication code (with 5 symbols like 4H3F9). Now, I've tried to put it back on pass-otp but it generates a basic code (6 digits, like 123456).
I've seen that there are projects to recreate the Steam code generation algorithm that work for me (see https://github.com/geekdada/steam-otp) but is there another way to do it on Pass?
