Windows & Mac Support

[quexten]

Windows

• CI Build
• Basic functionality tested
• Fido2 login
• Autotype (using pyautogui)
• Authorization (Windows Hello - Missing Golang Binding, probably easiest with https://github.com/NordSecurity/uniffi-bindgen-go wrapper around the windows rust api)
• SSH agent
• Pinentry
• GTK UI
• Autostart daemon
• Notifications
• scooop package
• winget package
• gui msi

Mac

• CI Build
• Basic functionality tested
• Fido2 login
• Autotype (using pyautogui)
• Authorization (Touchid)
• SSH agent
• Pinentry
• GTK UI
• Autostart daemon
• Notifications
• brew package
• gui package

Macos and windows build are now added on every release. They might not support all features as they are not tested much.

In case anyone is wondering, it's not usable yet on Windows.

• Can't log in without setting a pin, but setting pin is not implemented
• No setup command to install as a service (can probably be worked around by running daemonize as a startup program)
• If it closes/crashes, sockets are left behind, and then it will refuse to start because the sockets exist (Zombie sockets left behind #94)

At least setting pin is implemented now.

I'll give it a spin when you make a release, and let you know how well it works.

I'd offer to contribute code, but Go is not one of my languages 😅 I guess at least I can pitch in as a tester. I'd be happy to help with documentation too, when it's mature enough.

[quexten]

Thanks, I'll get back to that. I mostly don't use windows/mac so development here has been slow, but I'm looking to get at least ssh agent & cli functionality working soon on Windows & Mac.

Anything beyond that (gtk gui packaging/windows hello/autotype) will probably rely on contributors doing PRs ;)

Successfully tested the SSH agent on Windows now. For pinentry, installing GPG4win is required, for the ssh sockets just follow https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh/get-started/#step-4-configure-your-ssh-or-git-client to disable your openssh service, restart the goldwarden daemon and it should just work.

@kothavade When you have time, feel free to test https://github.com/quexten/goldwarden/actions/runs/7770097240#artifacts on MacOS. The pinentry implementation should also cover MacOS, but I have not been able to test that. On MacOS the instructions for setting up ssh agent (environment variables) should be the same as on Linux.

@quexten edit: ignore message, i'd forgotten to install macgpg2. will test properly and get back to you.

[quexten]

Thanks! One other package that might work is pinentry-mac, though I think macgpg2 might bring it too.
