GirFFI-GnomeKeyring

by Matijs van Zuijlen

Description

GirFFI-based Ruby bindings for the deprecated GnomeKeyring client library

Note: The GnomeKeyring client library is deprecated and you should use libsecret instead.

Status

Features

• Auto-generated bindings using GObject introspection.
• Adds overrides for introspection data bugs.

Usage

require 'gir_ffi-gnome_keyring'

attrs = GnomeKeyring::AttributeList.new
attrs.append_string "attribute-name", "string value"
attrs.append_uint32 "other name", 42

result_code, item_id = GnomeKeyring.item_create_sync nil,
  :generic_secret, "foobar", attrs, "foobar's secret", false

p [result_code, item_id]

if result_code == :ok
  code, info = GnomeKeyring.item_get_info_sync nil, item_id
  if code == :ok
    puts "Item: #{info.get_display_name} of type #{info.get_type}"
  end
  GnomeKeyring.item_delete_sync nil, item_id
  code, info = GnomeKeyring.item_get_info_sync nil, item_id
  p [code, info]
end

Install

gem install gir_ffi-gnome_keyring

Requirements

This gem depends on the gir_ffi gem and its requirements. In addition, it needs introspection data for the gnome-keyring client library.

On Debian and Ubuntu, you can get this by installing gir1.2-gnomekeyring-1.0. Note that this package is not available on newer versions of Debian and Ubuntu.

This gem has not been tested on Mac OS X or Microsoft Windows. YMMV. Pull requests to support these platforms are welcome.
