🌸 SIRIKALI 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to sirikali — it's a section 1 manual page, she's giving encrypted volume management realness, and honestly? iconic. let's get into it. ✨

✨ NAME ✨

sirikali — manage user encrypted volumes 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

sirikali [options]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

sirikali hands you a graphical user interface for managing encrypted volumes, for a user. yes. that's the whole vibe. 🔥

the actual mounting/encryption process? not her problem, lowkey. it's managed by another service. the supported services are CryFS, EncFS, GocryptFS, and SecureFS. at least one of these services must be installed — no service, no vibes, periodt. 😭

encrypted volumes get created using the "Create Volume" menu. the encrypted data lives at the "Volume Path". for normal password protection, use the "Key" option. simple as that, no cap. 🎀

to unmount a volume? click on the volume path and select 'Unmount'. bye bestie 👋

to mount an existing volume, select "Mount Volume", select the directory containing the encrypted data, and enter the key information. and that's it, you're in. 💜

✨ Options ✨

• -d dir — path to where a volume to be auto unlocked/mounted is located. 🗂️
• -m tool — tool to use to open a default file manager (the default tool is xdg-open). 🧚
• -e — start the application without showing the GUI. stealth mode bestie, main character energy. 🙈
• -b backend — a name of a backend to retrieve a password from when a volume is open from CLI. the supported backends are: "internal", "stdin", "keyfile", "kwallet" and "libsecret". the first three are always present, but the rest are compile time dependencies — so like, they might just not be there. check before you commit fr fr. 💀
  • "internal" option causes SiriKali to read password from lxqt-wallet internal backend.
  • "stdin" option causes SiriKali to read the password from standard input.
  • "keyfile" option causes SiriKali to read the password from a file.
  • "libsecret" option causes SiriKali to read password from lxqt-wallet libsecret backend.
  • "kwallet" option causes SiriKali to read password from lxqt-wallet kwallet backend.
• -k val — when opening a volume from CLI, a value of "rw" will open the volume in read mode and a value of "ro" will open the volume in read only mode. (yes, we're telling you exactly what the page says, character for character — do not come for me, I just work here 💅)
• -z path — full path of the mount point to be used when the volume is opened from CLI. this option is optional. ✨
• -c path — set Volume Configuration File Path when a volume is opened from CLI. 🎀
• -i min — set inactivity timeout (in minutes) to dismount the volume when mounted from CLI. she will ghost that volume for you after min minutes. ⏰
• -o val — set mount options when mounting a volume from CLI. 🔧
• -u path — unmount volume. 🫶
• -p — print a list of unlocked volumes. show me the receipts bestie 📋
• -f path — path to keyfile. 🔑
• -s — option to trigger generation of password hash. 🔥
• -h, --help — show a help message. when in doubt, ask her. 👑
