The new way to communicate with GNOME Keyring is via libsecret: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Libsecret

libsecret replaces libgnome-keyring.

There is a migration guide here https://developer.gnome.org/libsecret/unstable/migrating.html

Besides linking to libsecret, it is also possible to use the D-Bus interface directly e.g. https://github.com/swiesend/secret-service
