How to check if a password is stored in keychain

I would like to check whether a password has already been saved in keychain. Is it possible to do this with the current API?

I’m am currently doing it like this which feels a bit awkward:

try {
            //retrieve the credentials from keychain if saved.
            let credentials = await Keychain.getGenericPassword()
            if (credentials) //do something
            else //show error
        }
        catch(err) {
            if(err.message !== 'No keychain entry found') //No password exists in the key chain...
            else //some other error occurred.
        }

Do you have suggestion how I could check if a keychain entry exists?

hi! your way is the way to do it. You can wrap that as a function and return Promise.resolve(true/false) based on what you get from Keychain.getGenericPassword(). I’m guessing that could be a function to have out of the box, if you do a PR for that maybe @oblador would merge it.? update- see below
