KeeWeb is a cross-platform open source password manager that allows you to store your passwords and other sensitive data securely. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps of installing KeeWeb on NixOS Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
Open your terminal and run the following command to install KeeWeb using the Nix package manager:
$ nix-env -i keeweb
The nix-env -i command will install the package and all its dependencies.
Once the installation is complete, launch KeeWeb from the command line by running:
$ keeweb
The above command will launch the KeeWeb user interface on your default web browser.
Alternatively, you can run the following command to specify the port number:
$ keeweb -p <port_number>
When you launch KeeWeb, you will be presented with a screen prompting you to create your first password database. Follow the prompts to create your password database and set a master password.
Your new password database will be saved to the location specified by the data-dir command line option (by default, this is ~/.local/share/keeweb/data/).
Once you have created your password database, you can use KeeWeb to manage your passwords securely. You can add new passwords, edit existing passwords, and delete passwords as needed.
Note that KeeWeb stores your password database locally. This means that you will need to back up your password database regularly to prevent loss of data.
You have now successfully installed KeeWeb on NixOS Latest. KeeWeb is an excellent password manager that allows you to store and manage your passwords securely. With KeeWeb, you never have to worry about forgetting your passwords or compromising your security. Happy browsing!
