gnome-keyring | Read-only mirror of https | Identity Management library

I am trying to get KeeWeb working in Nixos. It is not in the 20.09 channel, and so I tried writing a derivation for it... and failed. Luckily after some more searching I found out someone else had already done it ! Wonderful!

So I copied the code from : https://github.com/sikmir/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/misc/keeweb/default.nix . And imported it into my home manager setup. It builds fine but when I run it it only opens an error dialog:

"Error loading app. Error: the name org,freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files"

A bit of seaerching points me into the direction of gnome-keyring and libsecret. Even a PR that addresses this issue, so you would think its fixed... but alas.

I changed the src to point to the latest version, but still no luck.

So probably something I am missing on my setup.

Can you help me ?

I'm trying to use ncurses in my C program, but it doesn't work with CLion's built-in console. From what I've gathered, in order to make the output appear in the gnome terminal, I have to select it in the Configure Debug screen, but I can't seem to find the gnome-terminal file anywhere - the most I could find are the gnome-keyring and gnome-www-browser files. Where should I look for the necessary file on a standard Debian install?

I'd like to pass a startup-script to my free f1-micro instance VM in GCP. The command that I'm specifying is the following:

I'm running a program inside GoLand that requires root privileges and I'm trying to configure the IDE to save the sudo password so I don't have to constantly type it in the dialog prompt. I've set it up in the Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > Passwords to use the "In native Keychain". I have a gnome-keyring deamon running with a "Default Keyring" and no password. However the sudo password prompt always appears when I try to run it.

I've also tried the "In KeePass" setting, but it doesn't work either.

Does GoLand support saving the sudo password and if so - any suggestions on what can be done to get it to work with gnome-keyring?

Recently my workplace has been transitioning over from CircleCI to Azure Pipelines, and as such we have been migrating all of our CI. While most have been somewhat straight forward, this particular pipeline requires running our linux job inside of a docker image. Here is what was in CircleCI:

I have refer to this post to use block editing in vim. But when I key I or c after the block select, vim enters the normal edit mode just as if I pressed a i. I also found, when block is selected, I can use the x key to delete chars in the block.

Before press I:

After press I:

How can I block input chars?

I am trying to install Gulp globally on my computer but it is not happening. I am using Linux PopOs (Ubuntu, Debian).

I have done npm install -g gulp and the output is:

Problem:

I would like to use python's keyring library in a headless Linux environment, specifically a Debian 9 GCP compute instance. I have a cron job that wakes up every so often to run a python script (... which utilizes keyring to retrieve passwords to various resources).

The problem is that the python script will prompt for the user's keyring password before allowing the python script to proceed. This does not work as the script is executed as a background cron process. Interestingly, running this same script in a Windows environment is not an issue, presumably because the process (user) is already authenticated.

Research:

I've only found one StackOverflow post (here) and the official online documentation (here - 'Using Keyring on headless Linux systems') that has a short section on how to run keyring in a headless linux environment.

The StackOverflow post covers how to do this with pgcli, but not any arbitrary command line tool (e.g. my python script), thus I did not find it helpful.

Similarly, I have not been able to successfully reproduce the steps (it feels like there are steps missing?) in the doc to effect. Explicitly, after doing dbus-run-session -- sh, I run gnome-keyring-daemon --unlock, but the dbus-run-session just appears to hang and does not appear to execute anything).

Questions:

1) Does anyone have, can provide clear instructions on how to run keyring in a headless Debian Linux environment, given my above scenario? Explicitly - no password prompting. I would really appreciate very explicit, step by step instructions if possible.

2) If not, I am using keyring to retrieve passwords to various resources (e.g. postgres, remote API keys, etc.). I was hoping to secure these in a keyring, but if not possible what would be the recommended alternative? I read a few StackOverflow posts on storing data such as this in environment variables, but that is not recommended. I also feel that creating a config file and then encrypting it seems heavy.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you kindly -

I'm just trying to run access GCP from python in a shared gitlab runner. I suspect there is something about the runner's OS that I don't understand. I can't seem to import google.cloud. I get ImportError: No module named 'google.cloud' no matter what I try.
