console.log('Password is', pass);
// Prints: Password is baz
});
});
```
### Internet Password Example
```javascript
var keychain = require('keychain');
keychain.setPassword({ account: 'foo', service: 'FooBar.com', type: 'internet', password: 'baz' }, function(err) {
keychain.getPassword({ account: 'foo', service: 'FooBar.com', type: 'internet' }, function(err, pass) {
console.log('Password is', pass);
// Prints: Password is baz
});
});
```
