bitwarden-helper-scripts

These are just some helper scripts I put together to help when using the official Bitwarden CLI.

bwunlock.sh

Used to unlock a bitwarden vault and set the appropriate environment variables to keep the vault unlocked.

Usage Instructions

1. Copy the file to a location of your choosing, I use /home/$USER/scripts

2. Set the following alias in your ~/.bashrc: alias bw-unlock="source /home/$USER/scripts/bwunlock.sh"

3. Source your bashrc or close and re-open your shell

4. Run bw-unlock and imput your Bitwarden Master Password when prompted

5. Run any Bitwarden command to ensure the script worked, like bw list items
