What

PHPKeychain is a PHP wrapper for storing and retrieving passwords in OS X Keychain.

Why

You've written a CLI tool that interacts with a 3rd party service and you need to store a users sensitive details such as passwords. You could store this in a plain text file, but OS X has Keychain, so this will help you to do this.

How

Include this class in your CLI script and use the methods to set, get, update and delete passwords, all stored within Keychain.

Methods

See the demo.php file for details on how to use this class
