Create password wrapper over cryptsetup

[Vincent43]

Currently we support only luksOpen and luksAddKey commands without much customization. It would be better to have universal wrapper over cryptsetup commands which will pass ykfde password to them.

Example:

ykfde-wrapper luksFormat --hash sha256 --iter-time 5000 /dev/sda
will execute:
cryptsetup luksFormat --hash sha256 --iter-time 5000 /dev/sda
and automatically pass ykfde password to it.

moving the passphrase generation into a library would make this a 1-liner:
print_passphrase | cryptsetup $@
even fancier, one could filter $1 and only request YK interaction when required (eg. luksDump does need no passphrase).

with the current structure it would basically mean cloning ykfde-open which doesn't seem very smart from a maintenance POW. are there any plans regarding a library?

There are no any plans currently. I'm just throwing ideas about possible improvements. Personally I would do simple script without dependencies for better portability - one script is all you need. https://git.zx2c4.com/ctmg/about/ is good example.

If someone does library approach instead, I won't oppose.
