Move to keyring based session storage to fix macOS auth issues #3

open
opened by dunkirk.sh targeting main

This fixes session persistence issues on macOS where login credentials were not being saved to the keychain. Also standardizes the config directory location across all platforms.

Changes#

Keyring Platform Support

  • Fixed macOS keychain integration by using apple-native feature instead of Linux-only sync-secret-service
  • Added platform-specific keyring features:
    • macOS: apple-native (uses macOS Keychain)
    • Linux: sync-secret-service, vendored (uses GNOME Keyring/KWallet)
    • Windows: windows-native (uses Windows Credential Manager)

Config Path Standardization

  • Moved config directory to ~/.config/tangled on all platforms for consistency
  • Previously used platform-specific paths (e.g., ~/Library/Application Support/tangled on macOS)

Error Messages

  • Improved keychain error messages to be more descriptive

fix(config): use platform-specific keyring features and standardize config path

I tested this (since my macOS auth was broken without it), and it now works! However, I get a keychain prompt up for every CLI invocation to type in my password. Would be nice if it cached that, but I'm not sure what's going on with the Keychain -> Passwords app migration on macOS in recent versions.

dunkirk.sh

If you select the prompt to never ask for this app, it will work in the future! It does seem to reset whenever the binary changes, so updates will retrigger it, but that seems like an acceptable compromise. The only way to not have it do that would be to sign the app with a developer cert but that seems over the top

Aha it was indeed my binary changing all the time that reset it. Signing with a developer cert for the eventual stable release binary seems like a reasonable solution to this in the longer term.
