README for fprintd-tk

This project is a desktop application that makes it easy for a user to control fingerprint enrollments.

App window

Upstream

The upstream project is hosted at https://bgstack15.ddns.net/cgit/fprintd-tk

Alternatives

• Use fprintd-enroll on cli.
• Use whatever probably-GNOME software is demonstrated in https://wiki.debian.org/SecurityManagement/fingerprint%20authentication

Reason for existence

I couldn't find a window-manager friendly gui for managing fingerprints.

Using

Run the program.

Dependencies

• python-tkstackrpms
• python3-tk
• python3-pil

The application really needs the user to have password-less auth permission in dbus/polkit to the fprintd actions. You will want a file like 80-fprintd.rules

Building

Python application.
