Migration tool for Password Managers. Particularly centered around KeePassXC.

PMMST - Password Manager Migration Support Tool

High and time-consuming migration-costs between Password Managers has led to deceptive and ever-changing pricing models, usually converging towards a subscription model of some kind. This tool is intended to help you to migrate your passwords from one password manager to another, specifically supporting migration towards KeePassXC.

Overview

• media/ - Images and other media files
• README.md - This file
• JSON2CSV.py - Script to convert JSON to CSV.

Usage

0. Create a secure and air-tight environment such as a VM or a container.
1. Export or backup your passwords locally as a .JSON file.
2. Configure the setup variables within the script:

EXPANDNOTES    = True                      # Merge incompatible fields into notes.
FILE           = 'passwords.json'          # Password backup/export file.
CSVNAME        = 'passwordsProcessed.csv'  # Processed passwords output file.
REMOVE         = []                        # Fields to remove.
VALID          = []                        # Only use fields that are valid for KeePass.

3. Run: python JSON2CSV.py
4. Import as .CSV into KeePassXC.
5. Completely delete all password files. Also within the bin or cloud backups!

KeePassXC

KeePassXC is Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and is developed by KeePassXC Team. It supports most platforms and is available for free download here.

Import Compatibility

• It would be nice if custom fields were automatically created during the import process. But this is not the case yet.
• It would be convenient if new lines for notes were substituteable with a tag or character such as <BR>.

Contributing

Contributions are very welcome. In particular, it can be imagined that a smaller adjustment to the code could be made to make it useful for a wider range of PMs. Please feel free to submit a pull request if this is the case.
