gware

gware (previously gopherware) is a diceware passphrase generator implemented in pure go. gware can except any wordlist that follows the same format as the standard diceware list (take a look at worldlists, it can also generate just the diceware numbers.

Is this Safe?

gware's number generator uses go's crypto/rand package which is a cryptographically secure pseudo random number generator (CSPRNG), the true nature of go's CSPRNG is actually a wrapper for your operating system's CSPRNG. Numbers generated from a CSPRNG are suitable for many cryptographic operations. Knowing this is it safe? Yes! If you ultra paranoid stick with the standard method of a set of casino die and paper.

Installation

• go get github.com/brsmsn/gware
• cd gware
• go build cmd/gware/gware.go

Usage

Usage : ./gware [-h] [-l N] [-e N] [-n] [-b] wordList
Parameters:
        -h                 Help, get cli parameters
        -l N               Generate passphrases with N amount of words (Default is 7 words)
        -e N               Extend number of generated passphrases to N passphrases (Default is 10 passphrases)
        -n                 Number only, output only diceware numbers (a diceware number is a number from 11111 to 66666), this flag will ignore wordlist
        -b                 Block format only, each line corresponds to a passphrase

Passphrases are outputed to stdout.
