Summary
PyAuth is a two-factor authentication program compatible with Google Authenticator
and other software and hardware using the standard TOTP algorithm outlined in
RFC 6238 (support for the HOTP algorithm
outlined in RFC 4226 is planned).
Secrets are encrypted using AES256, there is no option for storing unencrypted
secrets. If you were using an older beta version, you will be prompted for a
password and the stored secrets will be migrated to the current encryption without
requiring any more user intervention.

Branches page of the project Wiki on GitHub
for details on which branches are used for what and which ones you should pull from. The
project follows the Git Flow branching scheme.
Status
Everything in the v0.0.x series is a development version. v0.0.1 includes the
minimal functionality to be usable. The commit messages up to this point aren’t
too useful.
Basic functionality (listed in TODO.md) will get added as versions v0.1.x
through v0.4.x. v0.5.0 is expected to have all functionality checked and
working with the possible exception of the help system. Once I’ve made sure
any loose ends are taken care of, the version will jump to v0.9.x for
testing. v1.0.0 is planned to be a stable release ready for normal use. The
enhancements listed in TODO.md will occur after v1.0.0 is released.
Known areas of concern
Currently the TOTP implementation is coded to use a 30-second time period
compatible with Google Authenticator. Future work will include allowing for
different time periods.
Usage
Command line:
PyAuth [-n] [-s] [-m] [--icons=(white|grey|dark|transparent)] [--logfile FILENAME] [--no-logfile] [--loglevel (debug|info|warning|error|critical)]
-s enables use of the notification (systray) icon if possible.
-m acts as -s plus hides the main window on startup (minimized to systray).
-n forces the program to display in a normal window without using the
notification icon. This overrides -s and -m and any remembered settings
for the notification icon.
--icons selects a set of icons with the named background (default white).
--logfile allows you to set a log file for errors and messages logged by
the program. Errors always appear on the console regardless. You may use variable
and user expansions in the filename.
--no-logfile suppresses the log file completely.
--loglevel sets the level of log messages to output to the log file.
--version requests that the program print out it’s version number.
--help requests help on the command-line syntax.
The GUI interface should be fairly straightforward at this point. Each entry
is displayed in a pane in a scrolling list showing the service provider and
account, the current OTP (Google Authenticator) code and a timer bar counting
down the time to the next code.
Clicking on an entry selects it. If codes are being masked, selecting an entry
also unmasks it’s code while it’s selected. Clicking on a selected entry
deselects it. Double-clicking on an entry selects it and copies the current
code for it to the clipboard. The toolbar contains a tool for copying the
code of the currently-selected entry to the clipboard, and tools to move the
currently-selected entry up and down in the list so you can order entries the
way you want them. Right-clicking on an item brings up a context menu to let
you copy the provisioning URI for the entry to the clipboard or display the
QR code representation of the provisioning URI for scanning into another
authenticator app.
When you run PyAuth with an empty database of authentication entries, it’ll
display a single dummy entry with a fake code that won’t change. The first new
real entry you create will replace it. If you select and edit it, you’ll be
given the new-entry dialog instead and your new entry will replace the dummy
one.
In the View menu are options for showing/hiding the toolbar, putting an icon
in the system notification area (systray), showing the timer bars and masking
codes for unselected entries. If the notification icon is visible, the
minimize button on the window frame is removed as you can simply close the
window and leave the notification icon. Clicking the notification icon toggles
the main window off and on. Right-clicking the notification icon brings up a
menu with the option to completely exit the program.
When using the notification icon, the program will not appear in the taskbar
list of active applications. When starting minimized and using the
notification icon, the program’s window will initially be hidden and can be
shown by clicking the notification icon. When starting minimized without using
the notification icon, the program will start with it’s window shown and
minimized.
