NAME
    File::KeePass - Interface to KeePass V1 database files

SYNOPSIS
        use File::KeePass;
        use Data::Dumper qw(Dumper);

        my $k = File::KeePass->new;
        if (! eval { $k->load_db($file, $master_pass) }) {
            die "Couldn't load the file $file: $@";
        }

        print Dumper $k->groups; # passwords are locked

        $k->unlock;
        print Dumper $k->groups; # passwords are now visible

        $k->clear; # delete current db from memory


        my $group = $k->add_group({
            title => 'Foo',
        }); # root level group
        my $gid = $group->{'id'};

        my $group = $k->find_group({id => $gid});
        # OR
        my $group = $k->find_group({title => 'Foo'});


        my $group2 = $k->add_group({
            title => 'Bar',
            group => $gid,
            # OR group => $group,
        }); # nested group


        my $e = $k->add_entry({
            title    => 'Something',
            username => 'someuser',
            password => 'somepass',
            group    => $gid,
            # OR group => $group,
        });
        my $eid = $e->{'id'};

        my $e = $k->find_entry({id => $eid});
        # OR
        my $e = $k->find_entry({title => 'Something'});

        $k->lock;
        print $e->{'password'}; # eq undef
        print $k->locked_entry_password($e); # eq 'somepass'

        $k->unlock;
        print $e->{'password'}; # eq 'somepass'


        $k->save_db("/some/file/location.kdb", $master_pass);

METHODS
    new Returns a new File::KeePass object. Any named arguments are added to
        self.

    auto_lock
        Default true. If true, passwords are automatically hidden when a
        database loaded via parse_db or load_db.

            $k->auto_lock(0); # turn off auto locking

    load_db
        Takes a kdb filename and a master password. Returns true on success.
        Errors die. The resulting database can be accessed via various
        methods including $k->groups.

    save_db
        Takes a kdb filename and a master password. Stores out the current
        groups in the object. Writes attempt to write first to
        $file.new.$epoch and are then renamed into the correct location.

        You will need to unlock the db via $k->unlock before calling this
        method if the database is currently locked.

    clear
        Clears any currently loaded groups database.

    parse_db
        Takes an encrypted kdb database and a master password. Returns true
        on success. Errors die. The resulting database can be accessed via
        various methods including $k->groups.

    parse_header
        Used by parse_db.

    parse_groups
        Used by parse_db.

    parse_entries
        Used by parse_db.

    parse_date
        Parses a kdb packed date.

    decrypt_rijndael_cbc
        Takes an encrypted string, a key, and an encryption_iv string.
        Returns a plaintext string.

    encrypt_rijndael_cbc
        Takes a plaintext string, a key, and an encryption_iv string.
        Returns an encrypted string.

    gen_db
        Takes a master password. Optionally takes a "groups" arrayref and a
        "headers" hashref. If groups are not passed, it defaults to using
        the currently loaded groups. If headers are not passed, a fresh set
        of headers are generated based on the groups and the master
        password. The headers can be passed in to test round trip
        portability.

        You will need to unlock the db via $k->unlock before calling this
        method if the database is currently locked.

    gen_header
        Returns a kdb file header.

    gen_date
        Returns a kdb packed date.

    dump_groups
        Returns a simplified string representation of the currently loaded
        database.

            print $k->dump_groups;

        You can optionally pass a match argument hashref. Only entries
        matching the criteria will be returned.

    groups
        Returns an arrayref of groups from the currently loaded database.
        Groups returned will be hierarchal. Note, groups simply returns a
        reference to all of the data. It makes no attempts at cleaning up
        the data (find_groups will make sure the data is groomed).

            my $g = $k->groups;

        Groups will look similar to the following:

            $g = [{
                 expanded => 0,
                 icon     => 0,
                 id       => 234234234,
                 title    => 'Foo',
                 level    => 0,
                 entries => [{
                     accessed => "2010-06-24 15:09:19",
                     bin_desc => "",
                     binary   => "",
                     comment  => "",
                     created  => "2010-06-24 15:09:19",
                     expires  => "2999-12-31 23:23:59",
                     icon     => 0,
                     modified => "2010-06-24 15:09:19",
                     title    => "Something",
                     password => 'somepass', # will be hidden if the database is locked
                     url      => "",
                     username => "someuser",
                     id       => "0a55ac30af68149f62c072d7cc8bd5ee"
                 }],
                 groups => [{
                     expanded => 0,
                     icon     => 0,
                     id       => 994414667,
                     level    => 1,
                     title    => "Bar"
                 }],
             }];

    header
        Returns the current loaded db header.

    add_group
        Adds a new group to the database. Returns a reference to the new
        group. If a database isn't loaded, it begins a new one. Takes a
        hashref of arguments for the new entry including title, icon,
        expanded. A new random group id will be generated. An optional group
        argument can be passed. If a group is passed the new group will be
        added under that parent group.

            my $group = $k->add_group({title => 'Foo'});
            my $gid = $group->{'id'};

            my $group2 = $k->add_group({title => 'Bar', group => $gid});

        The group argument's value may also be a reference to a group - such
        as that returned by find_group.

    finder_tests {
        Used by find_groups and find_entries. Takes a hashref of arguments
        and returns a list of test code refs.

            {title => 'Foo'} # will check if title equals Foo
            {'title !' => 'Foo'} # will check if title does not equal Foo
            {'title =~' => qr{^Foo$}} # will check if title does matches the regex
            {'title !~' => qr{^Foo$}} # will check if title does not match the regex

    find_groups
        Takes a hashref of search criteria and returns all matching groups.
        Can be passed id, title, icon, and level. Search arguments will be
        parsed by finder_tests.

            my @groups = $k->find_groups({title => 'Foo'});

            my @all_groups_flattened = $k->find_groups({});

        The find_groups method also checks to make sure group ids are unique
        and that all needed values are defined.

    find_group
        Calls find_groups and returns the first group found. Dies if
        multiple results are found. In scalar context it returns only the
        group. In list context it returns the group, and its the arrayref in
        which it is stored (either the root level group or a sub groups
        group item).

    delete_group
        Passes arguments to find_group to find the group to delete. Then
        deletes the group. Returns the group that was just deleted.

    add_entry
        Adds a new entry to the database. Returns a reference to the new
        entry. An optional group argument can be passed. If a group is not
        passed, the entry will be added to the first group in the database.
        A new entry id will be created if one is not passed or if it
        conflicts with an existing group.

        The following fields can be passed.

            accessed => "2010-06-24 15:09:19", # last accessed date
            bin_desc => "", # description of the stored binary - typically a filename
            binary   => "", # raw data to be stored in the system - typically a file
            comment  => "", # a comment for the system - auto-type info is normally here
            created  => "2010-06-24 15:09:19", # entry creation date
            expires  => "2999-12-31 23:23:59", # date entry expires
            icon     => 0, # icon number for use with agents
            modified => "2010-06-24 15:09:19", # last modified
            title    => "Something",
            password => 'somepass', # will be hidden if the database is locked
            url      => "",
            username => "someuser",
            id       => "0a55ac30af68149f62c072d7cc8bd5ee" # randomly generated automatically

            group    => $gid, # which group to add the entry to

        The group argument's value may also be a reference to a group - such
        as that returned by find_group.

    find_entries
        Takes a hashref of search criteria and returns all matching groups.
        Can be passed an entry id, title, username, comment, url, active,
        group_id, group_title, or any other entry property. Search arguments
        will be parsed by finder_tests.

            my @entries = $k->find_entries({title => 'Something'});

            my @all_entries_flattened = $k->find_entries({});

    find_entry
        Calls find_entries and returns the first entry found. Dies if
        multiple results are found. In scalar context it returns only the
        entry. In list context it returns the entry, and its group.

    delete_entry
        Passes arguments to find_entry to find the entry to delete. Then
        deletes the entry. Returns the entry that was just deleted.

    now Returns the current localtime datetime stamp.

    is_locked
        Returns true if the current database is locked.

    lock
        Locks the database. This moves all passwords into a protected, in
        memory, encrypted storage location. Returns 1 on success. Returns 2
        if the db is already locked. If a database is loaded vai parse_db or
        load_db and auto_lock is true, the newly loaded database will start
        out locked.

    unlock
        Unlocks a previously locked database. You will need to unlock a
        database before calling save_db or gen_db.

    locked_entry_password
        Allows access to individual passwords for a database that is locked.
        Dies if the database is not locked.

BUGS
    Only Rijndael is supported.

    Only passkeys are supported (no key files).

    This module makes no attempt to act as a password agent. That is the job
    of File::KeePass::Agent. This isn't really a bug but some people will
    think it is.

    Groups and entries don't have true objects associated with them. At the
    moment this is by design. The data is kept as plain boring data.

SOURCES
    Knowledge about the KeePass DB v1 format was gleaned from the source
    code of keepassx-0.4.3. That source code is published under the GPL2
    license. KeePassX 0.4.3 bears the copyright of

    The encryption/decryption algorithms of File::KeePass are of derivative
    nature from KeePassX and could not have been created without this
    insight - though the perl code is from scratch.
