Firefox addon for kwallet KDE5

Various Plasma 5 Improvements

Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net

Description:

Firefox stores its passwords internally, optionally protected by a master password. KDE has its own password manager called KWallet. KWallet stores every password in the KDE system, and protects access by a master password. With this extension you are able to use KWallet instead of the default Firefox password manager. It allows tighter integration of Firefox inside KDE5.

IMPORTANT: This version works ONLY with KDE5, for the KDE4 version use: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Firefox+addon+for+kwallet+KDE4?content=116886

addon installation doesn't work (when I click on "Install from xpi file" and choose the file, nothing happens).

Those complaining about unsigned or unverified:
browser to about:config
xpinstall.signatures.required = false

This will potentially expose you to installing malicious addons, so don't be an idiot with the addon installation after toggling this parameter.

Hey,

under https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kde5-wallet-password-integrati/ I see a version 1.3, but this version isn't available here and also missing at your website:
http://www.guillermomolina.com.ar/en/projects/63-firefox-kwallet5

How do I get the source for this 1.3 version?

I've created the following preliminary patch. Which fixes it for me.

Hello, thanks for your patch, I have made the same for me (instead I'm not a developper).

But the function _lib.findLogins crashes if one parameter is "undefined".
Previous, you have to set the vars at null :

var guid;
var hostname = null;
var formSubmitURL = null;
var realm = null;

then you have to comment the default clause :

/*default:
throw new Error("Unexpected propertybag item: " + prop.name);*/

And at the end :

if (guid !== undefined) {
let entries = this._lib.findLoginsWithGuid( guid );
return this._array2NsILoginInfo( outCount, entries );
} else {
let entries = this._lib.findLogins( hostname, submitURL, realm );
return this._array2NsILoginInfo( outCount, entries );
}

Sorry :
let entries = this._lib.findLogins( hostname, formSubmitURL, realm );

When I attempt to install Firefox addon for kwallet KDE5, the install fails with:
"This add-on could not be installed because it has not been verified."
and gives me a "Learn more" link to:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-on-signing-in-firefox?as=u&utm_source=inproduct

I am using Firefox version 45.0 on openSUSE Leap 42.1 Linux for x86_64 (64 bit).

Please help.

After installation of this great component, Firefox try to restart, but immediately crash with the following error:

</MY/PATH>.default/extensions/kde5wallet@guillermo.molina/components/libkde5wallet_x86_64.so: undefined symbol: _ZN6QDebug9putStringEPK5QCharm

I'm using kubuntu 15.10 with Plasma 5.4 and FF 42.

Same crash seen here, and this is the error message when starting on the command line.
cp@helios:~$ firefox
Start
/usr/lib/firefox/firefox: symbol lookup error: /home/cp/.mozilla/firefox/6nswkv3k.default/extensions/kde5wallet@guillermo.molina/components/libkde5wallet_x86_64.so: undefined symbol: _ZN6QDebug9putStringEPK5QCharm
Removing the directory kde5wallet@guillermo.molina made firefox operational again (without the plugin, of course).

Anyone knowing what may be missing here ?

It seems that the plug in is compiled against Qt 5.5. Ubuntu 15.10 currently ships Qt 5.4. Installing Qt 5.5 from https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/backup-qt551 solved this issue for me.

While the plug in is now able to load and even talk to kwallet5 (Firefox folder created successfully in the default wallet) Firefox still crashes. After removing the plug in and installing it again it is now working. I'm not sure what the cause for the second crash was. There was no error message on the console and unfortunately I had not looked into the bug report Firefox wanted to send.

Please be aware that the passwords from the old kwallet database are not moved to the new db. I have not found a way to load and export the old database with kwallet5.

I followed this recipe for installing missing kde/qt libraries and it worked for me. Thanks !!

Since the last update of firefox yesterday (45.0+build2) the extension ceased to work.

More information on the crash - has anyone an idea what is missing here ? It looks to me that the kwallet extension is quite happy, but bumps into some API change by firefox ?

cp@helios:~$ firefox
Start
walletType = "LocalWallet"
Start
walletFolder = "Firefox"
Start
QSettings::value: Empty key passed
QSettings::value: Empty key passed

Pass a valid window to KWallet::Wallet::openWallet().

After upgrading to Kubuntu 16.04 (which includes libqt5core5 5.5.1 and plasma 5.5.5, as well as firefox 46.0+build5) the plugin started working again.

Thanks !

Same problem here, anyone managed to fix that? Is Guillermo still working on the plugin? His homepage does not seem to work any more.

I tried to install the plugin in ff41 (ubuntu) - firefox says that the xpi is corrupt. downloaded several times

Yes you were right. The file was corrupted, sorry about that.
Try downloading now.

It took me a bit, but he's "joining" forces.

Here's why:
the post you linked redirect to the Firefox-KDE-Wallet plugin I made (http://www.andreascarpino.it/posts/firefox-kde-wallet-for-kf5.html). As I wrote, my plugin is a fork of Guillermo's plugin to support KDE Frameworks 5. I browsed Guillermo's repository and found out it accepted my changes in his new repository http://svn.guillermomolina.com.ar/firefox-kde5-wallet/ . So, there's only one Firefox KWallet 5 plugin :-)

Ray-Ven

Aaah, now I get it! Thank you for your effort - do you know why there aren't any kde-devs jumping on the same train? Or this Plasmazilla guy... Guillermo seems to be very busy! This is an important plugin which needs to be maintained carefully. I would love to donate - if this helps... But if there's no regular maintainer, donations won't help
