I tried to work on this but secrets.el was not usable on a recent Ubuntu
system (secrets-list-collections, for example, fails). Can you explain
how to set it up or point me to a resource?
http://code.confuego.org/secrets-xdg-specs/ specified the protocol only
and I couldn't find a tutorial anywhere.
I comitted changes to the customization of auth-sources which would let
the user specify, in addition to the current "file" option expressed as
a string filename:
- a ':secrets' specifier, matching a host and a protocol and (optionally)
a user name
- within each ':secrets' specifier, one of:
- a collection name as a string
- the 'default symbol (which we'll convert to a collection name with
(secrets-get-alias "default") IIUC)
- nil to indicate we don't have a valid collection and this specifier
should be skipped (this helps with misconfigured specifiers)
- t to indicate any collection is OK, we'll pick the first one
returned by secrets-list-collections that matches the host, port,
and username
- the string "session" to indicate the temporary session-level
collection
- optional parameters at the end of the spec, including a user name. I
may move the host and port to these optional parameters as well but
I'm not sure if that's a good idea. Comments welcome.
So this is about 30% done...
Thanks
Ted
