otp plugin
This plugin allows you to create one-time passwords using oathtool
,
able to replace MFA devices. The oathtool key is kept in a GPG-encrypted file so the codes
can only be generated by a user able to decrypt it.
To use it, add otp
to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
plugins=(... otp)
Provided aliases:
-
otp_add_device
: creates a new encrypted storage for an oathtool key and stores it on the disk. For encrypting the key, it will ask for a GPG user ID (your GPG key's email address). Then the OTP key needs to be pasted, followed by a CTRL+D character inserted on an empty line. -
ot
: generates a MFA code based on the given key and copies it to the clipboard (on Linux it relies on xsel, on MacOS X it uses pbcopy instead).
The plugin uses $HOME/.otp
to store its internal files.
