Multiple users for same application about rooster HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello @iia! Yes, you are right, currently there is only one password for each application name. So you can't have multiple passwords for one app named "Github", for instance.

The way I handle that is by having multiple entries in Rooster. For example:

rooster generate GoogleWork [email protected] # work account
rooster generate Google [email protected]       # personal account

rooster get ggl

• If you do rooster get ggl, Rooster asks you if you wantGoogleWork or GooglePersonal,
• If you do rooster get google, you get the password for your personal account,
• And if you do rooster get googlework, you get the password for your work account.

Does that meet your needs?

If not, please explain in more detail what your use case is so we can try and find a way for Rooster to work for you.

Hi,

Yah that works too.

I had a different mental model of the system previously. As in, when creating a new user:password pair the pair must belong to one application and the users of an application must be unique.

Great to hear that works for you 😃

FYI the only thing unique in Rooster is the app name. Usernames and passwords can be duplicated.

If you have any other questions, feel free to open a new issue or get back via email.

Cheers !
