Himitsu is a secret storage manager for Linux.

Installation

Warning: Himitsu is a work in progress. Neither Himitsu nor its underlying cryptographic implementation have been independently audited.

You need to install the "himitsu" package, as well as a prompter. The default prompter that is recommended is hiprompt-gtk-py. This prompter is in the testing repository.

apk add himitsu hiprompt-gtk-py

Run himitsu-init to create a key store. The daemon, himitsud, needs to be running in order to access the key store. How you start it up depends on your system configuration; your desktop environment or service manager may offer a means of running it on startup.
