jbreams··on Show HN: A GTK+ 1Password App for Linux
1Password does dropbox syncing. The intended use-case is to point this at your dropbox sync'd password vault. The actual password vault is just a bunch of json files though, so if you have those files sync'd it should work.

The docs on their format were very useful, although the 1PasswordAnywhere was more useful when actually writing this. I also wish they'd switch over to their new file format everywhere, it's confusing to read all about the 1Password 4/5 file formats, and realize they aren't the one that's actually in use.

I also wish they documented the structure of their data after its decrypted. There are at least 3 different ways the data gets represented.

I'm working on adding write support. The structure of the encrypted data in 1Password is kind of inconsistent, so it's not as simple as just updating fields in the JSON documents, but I don't think it should be that hard to make it writable.

If you already have a bunch of 1Password data, this lets you read it. Keepass is definitely more feature-rich than my thing, but 1Password is cross-platform and has mobile apps - and most importantly, I already use it for everything! I used 1Password extensively on my Mac - and when I switched to Linux on the desktop, it was the only thing missing, so I wrote this.
