Twothy

Twothy is a Two-factor authenticator for CLI. The project is a reference implementation of RFC 6238 and is compatible with Google Authenticator. The project was born out of frustration to get OTP from my Mobile and lack of control over and backup of Secrets. With a simple configuration, twothy can work across multiple devices without the need to regenerate the secrets for each 2FA enabled accounts. More here

Getting Started

Installation assumes that you have Go environment configured.

Go get the project with following command

go get -u github.com/vedhavyas/twothy/cmd/twothy/...

Running the tests

Once inside project' folder, simply run make test to run the tests.

Usage

Configuring twothy

Twothy requires you to provide a path to store the accounts. Configuration can be triggered by

>> twothy configure
Welcome to twothy!!
Enter the path to store your 2FA accounts.
I will create 'twothy_accounts' folder at the provided path.
If you are restoring accounts, provide path to 'twothy_accounts'.
Path(/Users/vedhavyas):

Once you enter path, which defaults to user's home directory if not given, twothy will store all the accounts there. Configure will be triggered if any other action is called ex: add

Adding an account

Adding account requires Issuer, Label and the secret Key.

>> twothy add google test MZZWCLDCOZSGMYTKONSGM===
Password(to encrypt the account):
test@google: 168339

Generating OTPs

Generating OTP for all accounts

>> twothy otp
Password(to decrypt the account):
test@google: 772912

Generating OTPs for all accounts belonging to an issuer

Password(to decrypt the account):

Security

Twothy uses AES to encrypt your accounts. It doesn't cache any passwords and requires password to add account and generate OTP.

Backup

I use google drive to backup my 2FA accounts by configuring twothy to save accounts inside Google Drive folder. You are free to use your favourite backup service to achieve something similar
