yubikey-totp-gui

GUI for TOTP with the YubiKey. Suitable for Two-Factor authentication with Gmail, Dropbox, Github, AWS etc.

Installation

Installation with pip should be fairly straightforward, but pyusb may not install cleanly as pip will refuse beta software by default. You will likely need to install the beta version first:

For the stable version:

pip install pyusb==1.0.0b1 yubikey-totp-gui

For the development version:

pip install pyusb==1.0.0b1 git+https://github.com/ldrumm/yubikey-totp-gui.git

Linux

First, you will need Tkinter installed.

Debian and derivates:

sudo apt-get install python-tk

Chances are high that Tkinter will already be installed on everything but a freshly installed OS.

Permissions Issues

Some Linux distributions forbid direct access to USB devices, and require modification of system permissions. The simplest way to do this is to install your distribution's packaged version of yubikey-personalization which takes care of things for you, or alternatively copy the yubico udev rules:

sudo curl -o /etc/udev/rules.d/69-yubikey.rules https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Yubico/yubikey-personalization/master/69-yubikey.rules

sudo curl -o /etc/udev/rules.d/70-yubikey.rules https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Yubico/yubikey-personalization/master/70-yubikey.rules

sudo service udev restart

Windows

Installation on windows currently has some issues, as python-yubico does not seem to import properly (on my Windows 7 development machine at least). However, as Yubico already offer a windows tool that does essentially the same thing as this project, that software can be used as an alternative.

Other OSs

I haven't had the opportunity to try this, but if your system has a libusb backend and is somewhat unixy, it is likely to work just fine.
