Keyring

Keyring can be used to store password so you don't need to put them in your programs hardcoded.

Getting it installed in Ubuntu was quite a hassle. I did:

pip3 install keyring
pip3 install --upgrade keyrings.alt

Not sure if installing the keyring module is needed but I started with that. Then importing keyring was giving errors. Installing keyrings.alt fixed that.

python3 -m keyring set <service> <username>

Create in <service> a password-entry for <username>. You will be prompted for the password

<service> is just to group usernames

python3 -m keyring get <service> <username>

Fetch the password for <username> in <service>

 
import keyring
password = keyring.get_password(service,username)
