Examples

Creating a Keychain

Start by creating a Keychain with the intended item class:

let keychain = Keychain<GenericPasswordKeychainItem>()

then create items on the keychain:

let passwordData = "secret password".data(using: .utf8)!
var item = GenericPasswordKeychainItem(account: "some account key", password: passwordData)
// configure any other things on the item
item.isSynchronizable = true

// then add it to the keychain
try keychain.add(item)

later on, fetch the item again using a query:

let query = GenericPasswordKeychainItem.Query(account: "some account key")

if let item = try keychain.fetch(query) {
	let password = String(data: item.password, encoding: .utf8)!
	// do something with the password
}
