Just another naive locker program for Linux written in shell
MIT License
I was just reading a book and then I found out that we can change the permissions of a directory to none for all the users and that basically doesn't let any program except rm access the directory.
Hence, I created a small, naive script that just adds the ability to change those permissions with a password, which means that the dir can be locked using the password.
Are you kidding me? It's written in Shell, no dependencies, enjoy.
Clone the repo and enter the dir
git clone https://github.com/deepjyoti30/locker && cd locker
Install using make
make install
Usage: locker OPERATION DIR [--help]
Positional arguments:
OPERATION: Either of [lock] or [unlock] can be passed.
DIR: Directory to operate on.
Optional arguments:
--help: Show this message and exit
