I am using gopass to store my API keys with the following template at .gopass/create/api-key.yaml:
priority: 1
name: "API Key"
prefix: "api-keys"
name_from:
- "service"
welcome: "Creating API key entry"
attributes:
- name: "service"
type: "string"
prompt: "Service"
min: 1
- name: "password"
type: "password"
prompt: "API Key"It works fine, but the problem is that gopass prompts me every time whether a password has to be generated or not. Is there any way I can specify that the password will always be input by the user?
$ gopass create
🌟 Welcome to the secret creation wizard (gopass create)!
🧪 Hint: Use 'gopass edit -c' for more control!
[ 0] Website
[ 1] API Key
Please select the type of secret you would like to create (q to abort) [0]: 1
1
Creating API key entry
[1] Service []: service
[2] Generate Password? [Y/n/q]: n
Enter API Key:
Retype API Key:
❌ Error: the entered password do not match
Enter API Key:
Retype API Key:
✅ Credentials saved to "api-keys/service"In short, I want to skip step [2] and directly ask gopass to let me insert the key.
