#MacPass

There are a lot of iOS KeePass tools around but a distinct lack of a good OS X version. KeePass can be used via Mono on OS X but lacks vital functionality and feels sluggish.

MacPass is an attempt to create a native OS X port of KeePass.

##Disclaimer The Project is in heavy development. Beware that I'm going to shift things around so stuff is going to break. A lot.

##Download

I'm trying to upload binaries for all the tags I create along the way. Use it with caution, it's unfinished. Really!

All releases can be found at Github.

##How to Build

• Fetch the source of MacPass

git clone https://github.com/mstarke/MacPass --recursive

• Install Carthage
• Install all Dependencies

carthage bootstrap --platform Mac

After that you can build and run in Xcode. The following command will build and make the application available through Spotlight. If you run into signing issues take a look at Issue #92

xcodebuild -scheme MacPass -target MacPass -configuration Release

There have been some changes in the submodule urls. Please consider re-syncing and initalizing all submodules.

git submodule sync
git submodule init

##Known Major Issues

• Binary releases (0.5.x):
  • KDBX History is only preserved. Editing doesn't create new history entries

##Alternatives

KeePassX is a Qt based KeePass port. It's in active development and open source. It fully supports all KDBX features and can import KDB into a KDBX file but is unable to safe as KDB. There's an older release just that handles only KDB files.

KyPass Companion is a native Cocoa port and offers KeePassHttp compatibility. Should be able to read and write KDB and KDBX files. It is closed source and currently available in the Mac App Store. It's rather expensive considering the bugs and missing features. Based on the user reviews it should work. Not all KDBX features are supported. It is unable to convert between database versions.

KeeWeb is a cross platform web client in active development based on electron and thus also is available as an offline version for all major platforms. The project is open source. It supports all features of KDBX files but has no KDB support. Because of the technology it's look is customizable, but the native one is quite pretty.
