history

Project history and usage

gopass-jsonapi is the JSON-message bridge that lets browser extensions communicate with gopass as a native application. Its README describes it as especially useful for browser plugins such as gopassbridge.

Project history

The standalone gopass-jsonapi repository was created in January 2021. Its README documents the split from earlier gopass release packaging: gopass v1.10 and v1.11 users downloaded the binary from gopass releases, while gopass v1.12 and newer users downloaded gopass-jsonapi from the separate repository's releases.

Adoption history

The README says the project had no regular release process defined and warned that documentation across repositories and gopass versions could be outdated or incomplete. Package adoption nonetheless expanded enough for Fedora and several cross-platform package managers to package it as a separate binary.

How it is used

Users run `gopass-jsonapi configure` for each browser so the required native messaging manifest is installed. Browser extensions then send JSON messages to gopass-jsonapi, which invokes gopass to retrieve login data from the user's password store.

Why package nerds care

gopass-jsonapi is package-nerd notable because it turns browser native messaging setup into a packaged command. It is not the password manager itself; it is the integration shim that lets OS packages, browser manifests, and the gopass CLI cooperate.
