I've been using the pass
password manager for a year or so now, and it's awesome, but sometimes I like to test other password managers and then I need my passwords back.
So far I've just been adding them manually as I need them, but if I want to migrate to another password manager I need a script, because I don't have the patience to do it one by one, considering I have near to a hundred (if not more).
Is it possible? Is there already a solution?
I've searched for a solution on and off for the past couple months and haven't been able to find one where it's "just run this script and boom exported".
Is there such a script? If not, what or where should I look into to make one?

You can do this if you are running gpg-agent (and your passphrase is loaded), by looping through the files in your password store and writing them to a separate file.
You do have to strip the leading directories from the path (
$PASSWORD_STORE_DIR
) and the.gpg
extension from each of the files in the subdirectories, but otherwise it is straightforward enough:
