totp-cli
totp-cli is a simple command line application to generate OTP tokens for two factor authentication using RFC6238.
These are compatible with many popular services such as Facebook, GitHub, Google, eve-online, battle.net, etc.
totp-cli fetches your shared key (aka: code) from pass, generates the token, outputs it to stdout and copies it to your CLIPBOARD X selection. Default X selection can be overridden with the PASSWORD_STORE_X_SELECTION environment variable.
Shared keys should be stored in your pass storage under 2fa/SERVICE/code,
for example 2fa/github/code. The -a flag (or alternatively the add
subcommand) can be used to add this less painfully.
Usage
Usage:
totp SERVICE
For example:
$ totp github 621787
You don't need to run totp from the command line if you just want to paste
the code; you can run it from dmenu, or whatever your application launcher
is.
To offset the clock by a number of seconds:
totp -s SECONDS SERVICE
For example:
$ totp -s +60 github 735092 $ totp -s -90 github 909651
To add a service:
totp -a SERVICE # OR totp add SERVICE
For example:
$ totp -a github Token length [6]: 6 Shared key: KEY
Note that if the service already exists, it will be overwritten without warning.
To output without copying to the clipboard:
$ totp -n SERVICE # OR $ totp --nocopy SERVICE
About pass entries
Pass entries are expected to have the TOTP secret in their first line (as provided by the third party). The amount of digits token must have (for example, battle.net uses 8), must be provided in a separate line, with a format like:
Digits: 8
For the moment, only customizing the token length is possible.
Requirements
There are also some platform-specific requirements for copying code into the clipboard:
- xclip for Xorg (Linux/BSD).
Installation
Installation is quite simple:
$ pip install totp
There is also an AUR package available for ArchLinux users.
You can also configure shell completion for totp-cli:
- Bash: Download totp-cli-completion.bash
and source it from your bash configuration file (e.g.
.bash_profile) - Zsh: Download totp-cli-completion.zsh as
_totpto site-functions directory (e.g./usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions)
