Description : Golang library for parsing /etc/passwd entries
Golang library etcpwdparse
.
This library provides simple access to the entries in the /etc/passwd
file.
.
It was made for programs that need to be able to pull home directories,
user id's and the like but do not want the cgo-dependence of the core
os/user package.
.
The only real caveat is that it doesn't pull user entries from other
sources like PAM or LDAP since it only operates by reading the file on
disk.
