npm node GitHub

dmenu for bitwarden which can copy usernames, passwords, and various fields to your clipboard.

Usage

$ bitwarden-demu --help
Usage: bitwarden-dmenu [options]

The DMENU_PATH environment variable can be used to point to an alternative dmenu implementation. Defaults to 'dmenu'.

Options:
  --clear-clipboard   Number of seconds to keep selected field in the clipboard.
                      Defaults to 15s.
  -l                  Sets the -l parameter value passed to dmenu.
                      Defaults to 0
  --session-timeout   Number of seconds after an unlock that the menu can be accessed
                      without providing a password again. Defaults to 0s.
  --stdout            Prints the password and username to stdout
  --sync-vault-after  Number of seconds allowable between last bitwarden sync and
                      current time. Defaults to 0s.
  --on-error          Arbitrary command to run if the program fails. The thrown error
                      is piped to the given command. Defaults to none.
  --url               Url to filter by.

  --verbose           Show extra logs useful for debugging.

By default, this program runs at its most secure. No session is stored for any time period, the vault is updated every time it is used, and the clipboard is cleared every 15 seconds. In reality, you may want something a little more lenient. Here is the command I use in my personal i3wm config.

bitwarden-dmenu --clear-clipboard 30 --session-timeout 100 --sync-vault-after 3600 --on-error 'xargs notify-send --urgency=low'
