keychain export/import #22

Closed urandom2 closed 9 years ago

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

allow a user to export a keyring to a file, encrypted if possible

winhowes commented 9 years ago

+1

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

I also tried to sync my firefox and chrome keyrings; there is no good export feature, it was a matter of copy, modify and paste. that too should likely be added [clipboard export], if you think it is useful

winhowes commented 9 years ago

yep totally agree on all of this

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

it looks like you might want to be able to share/export the keyserver bindings, as they did not transfer when I setup chromium

winhowes commented 9 years ago

what do you mean by the keyserver bindings? The descriptions?

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

I can show that I have the pub and private keys for my asym key, but the extension does not let me revoke that key, presumably because it does not know that I uploaded it?

winhowes commented 9 years ago

gotcha. Yep, totally agree

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

also, I presume that the share key feature will not work with both browsers

winhowes commented 9 years ago

I'm not sure what you mean.. You can share keys from both browsers, but I don't think that's what you're saying

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

right, but you cannot republish or revoke from browser2

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

also, if you share a key with me, it should only go to browser1, right?

winhowes commented 9 years ago

In the future you should be able to republish/revoke from browser2.

If I share a symmetric key with you, all your browsers compete for receiving the key and whoever checks for it first gets it (and so do browsers who check at about the same time).

alright, for pfs we should look at how whispersystems is doing multidevice support @TheBlueMatt may be of assistance

TheBlueMatt commented 9 years ago

https://gist.github.com/TheBlueMatt/d2fcfb78d29faca117f5 is close to what was implemented, with a number of the low-level protocol details replaced with equivalent things.

winhowes commented 9 years ago

I like how pfs got dragged into this one :)

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

does it not always

winhowes commented 9 years ago

Well, so this topic went in a billion directions. I've synced keys between browsers, working on export/import now

winhowes commented 9 years ago

This should be now entirely implemented on Firefox

winhowes commented 9 years ago

Implemented fully on both browsers. Closing

urandom2 commented 9 years ago

awesome
