JavaScript version

The JavaScript version lets you generate passwords in a web browser, including on mobile devices, without installing Python on that device. Use the Python / CLI version to create an HTML file containing the sites you select. For supported character sets, it generates the same passwords as the passme command.

An iOS app is also available. See Mobile to compare the two options and learn how to import a sitekey file into the app.

This HTML file can be generated by:

> passme html
  1. First, enter the desired filename for the HTML file.
  2. Next, specify the site names to be included.
    • Type ALL to include all sites.
    • Or, select specific sites that you expect to access from your mobile device.

The created HTML file

Usage

  1. Select the site name using the radio buttons.
  2. Enter your Master Password in the “Master” box. The password is regenerated instantly every time you type.
  3. Click the Copy button to copy the generated password to your clipboard.

You can send this HTML file to your mobile device (e.g., via Dropbox, iCloud, or email) and open it in any web browser.

Note: The character set ans95 does not work in the JavaScript version. The iOS app supports ans95.
