Minimal implementation of libsecret (Secret Service API) for managing secrets in Vlang. The examples from the C docs are implemented.
This library uses the libsecret/secret.h C-headers.
The following dependencies are required:
libsecret-1-0libsecret-1-dev
On Debian-based distro's, these can be installed via:
sudo apt install -y libsecret-1-0 libsecret-1-devNote: libsecret expects this to be exected on a GUI-system.
If you try to run this on a headless server, you may get an error like Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY.
v install robinvandernoord.libsecretimport robinvandernoord.libsecret
// initial setup:
struct Metadata {
// you can store anything you like here!
// It will be converted to JSON.
text string
}
schema := libsecret.get_schema()
// save a password:
schema.store_password("Label Description", "my-password", Metadata {"text string"})
// load password with metadata:
mut metadata := Metadata {} // start with an empty object to fill
password := schema.load_password("Label Description", mut metadata)
println(password or {"missing password"}) // -> "my-password"
println(metadata) // Metadata { text: "text string" }
// remove password:
assert schema.remove_password("Label Description")
