KeePassGO

KeePassGO is a Go-based KeePass-compatible password manager targeting desktop first, with future Android support.

Current Capabilities

• KDBX load and save
• password-only, key-file-only, and composite master-key flows through the desktop product UI
• master-key changes for existing vault sessions
• WebDAV-backed open and save support in the session layer
• password generation profiles
• gRPC integration surface for trusted automation
• template, attachment, group, history, and recycle-bin persistence

Run

go run .

Phone-sized preview:

go run . -mode phone

Test

go test ./...
go tool golangci-lint run ./...

KDBX security and KDF compatibility notes are documented in docs/kdbx-compatibility.md.

Build

Desktop build:

go build ./cmd/keepassgo

By default, build outputs stamp the app version from git describe --tags --always --dirty. You can override the version shown in KeePassGO with:

go build -ldflags "-X git.julianfamily.org/keepassgo/internal/appui.appVersion=v0.0.1" ./cmd/keepassgo

Arch Linux Package

An AUR-style package definition for the Linux desktop client lives under:

• packaging/archlinux/keepassgo-git/

From that directory you can build and install it with:

makepkg -si

The package installs:

• /usr/bin/keepassgo
• /usr/bin/keepassgo-browser-bridge
• a desktop entry at /usr/share/applications/keepassgo.desktop
• application icons under the hicolor theme

Android Packaging

KeePassGO uses Gio, so Android packaging is done with gogio.

The repo now has automated tests for the packaging contract:

• default APK build arguments
• required Android SDK / NDK / JDK layout checks

Those are covered by normal test runs:

go test ./...

Install:

go get -tool gioui.org/cmd/gogio@latest

Package:

go tool gogio -target android -icon internal/assets/keepassgo-icon.png ./cmd/keepassgo

You will need the Android SDK and NDK installed and configured for real device or release packaging.

Automation

Desktop automation is resolved through the secure gRPC API rather than synthetic auto-type. See docs/desktop-automation.md.

On desktop, KeePassGO now listens on a Unix socket by default under the user runtime directory. Set KEEPASSGO_GRPC_ADDR or -grpc-addr to override it, for example tcp://127.0.0.1:47777.

Browser Extension

Firefox and Chromium browser integration is available through the local gRPC API plus a native messaging bridge. See docs/browser-extension.md.
