How to use keyring instead of plain text passwords in a config file (Mopidy)












2















I just installed keyring on macOS. I'd like to leverage this instead of keeping Spotify's username and password for Mopidy in my mopidy.conf.



Everything works well, and I can read my Spotify password from the Keychain by running:



python -m keyring get spotify 0000000000


After reading here, and here, my understanding is that I need to leave the mopidy.conf credentials empty:



username =
password =


and then setup the keyring config located at (~/.local/share/python_keyring).



Is it possible to still use the macOS Keychain? If not, how to properly setup the keyring config file?
