# pass2csv

pass2csv is a tool that exports a
[pass(1)](https://www.passwordstore.org/) password store to a CSV. It
can export whole stores, subdirectories of a store, and single password
files. It can use regexp patterns to find and group data after the first
line of each password into additional CSV columns, as well as exclude
data from the export.

Source is available [at GitHub](https://github.com/reinefjord/pass2csv),
and the package is published to the
[Python Package Index](https://pypi.org/project/pass2csv/).

You can install the package with [pipx](https://pypa.github.io/pipx/)
(recommended):

    pipx install pass2csv

or with pip:

    python3 -m pip install --user pass2csv


## Usage

```
$ pass2csv --help
usage: pass2csv [-h] [-b path] [-g executable] [-a]
                [--encodings encodings] [-e pattern] [-f name pattern]
                [-l name pattern] [--version]
                STOREPATH OUTFILE

positional arguments:
  STOREPATH             path to the password-store to export
  OUTFILE               file to write exported data to, use - for stdout

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -b path, --base path  path to use as base for grouping passwords
  -g executable, --gpg executable
                        path to the gpg binary you wish to use (default:
                        'gpg')
  -a, --use-agent       ask gpg to use its auth agent
  --encodings encodings
                        comma-separated text encodings to try, in order,
                        when decoding gpg output (default: 'utf-8')
  -e pattern, --exclude pattern
                        regexp for lines which should not be exported, can
                        be specified multiple times
  -f name pattern, --get-field name pattern
                        a name and a regexp, the part of the line matching
                        the regexp will be removed and the remaining line
                        will be added to a field with the chosen name.
                        only one match per password, matching stops after
                        the first match
  -l name pattern, --get-line name pattern
                        a name and a regexp for which all lines that match
                        are included in a field with the chosen name
  --version             show program's version number and exit
```


### Format

The output format is

    Group(/),Title,Password,[custom fields...],Notes

You may add custom fields with `--get-field` or `--get-line`. You supply
a *name* for the field and a regexp *pattern*. The field name is used for
the header of the output CSV and to group multiple patterns for the same
field; you may specify multiple patterns for the same field by
specifying `--get-field` or`--get-line` multiple times with the same
name. Regexp patterns are case-insensitive.


### Example usage

```
$ gpg -d ~/.password-store/sites/example/login.gpg
password123
---
username: user_name
email user@example.com
url:example.com
Some note

$ pass2csv ~/.password-store - \
    --exclude '^---$' \
    --get-field Username '(username|email):?' \
    --get-field URL 'url:?'

"Group(/)","Title","Password","URL","Username","Notes"
"sites/example","login","password123","example.com","user_name","email user@example.com

Some note"
```


### Grouping

The group is relative to the path, or the `--base` if given.
Given the password `~/.password-store/sites/example/login.gpg`:

    $ pass2csv ~/.password-store/sites
        # Password will have group "example"

    $ pass2csv ~/.password-store/sites --base ~/.password-store
        # Password will have group "sites/example"


## gpg-agent password timeout

If your private key is protected by a password, `gpg` will ask for it
with the `pinentry` program if you haven't set it to something else. If
using `gpg2` or the `-a` option with `gpg`, by default, the password is
cached for 10 minutes but the timer is reset when using a key. After 2
hours the cache will be cleared even if it has been accessed recently.

You can set these values in your `~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf`:

```
default-cache-ttl 600
max-cache-ttl 7200
```


## Development

Create a virtual environment:

    python3 -m venv venv

Activate the environment:

    . venv/bin/activate

Now you may either use `pip` directly to install the dependencies, or
you can install `pip-tools`. The latter is recommended.


### pip

    pip install -r requirements.txt


### pip-tools

[pip-tools](https://github.com/jazzband/pip-tools) can keep your virtual
environment in sync with the `requirements.txt` file, as well as
compiling a new `requirements.txt` when adding/removing a dependency in
`requirements.in`.

It is recommended that pip-tools is installed within the virtual
environment.

    pip install pip-tools
    pip-compile  # only necessary when adding/removing a dependency
    pip-sync


### Packaging

See [Python Packaging User Guide](https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/) for detailed info.

0. `pip-sync requirements.txt dev-requirements.txt`
1. Increment `__version__` in `pass2csv.py`.
2. `rm -rf dist/* && python3 -m build`
4. `python3 -m twine upload dist/*`
