  • TUI for KeePass or a way to migrate from KeePass to some other CLI / TUI program?

    I'm using bitwarden, and it has an official cli client that I've extended in my dotfiles to integrate fzf, you'll just need to adjust the commands for interacting with your clipboard : https://github.com/LoricAndre/dotfiles/blob/main/bin/fbw. Once you've installed the cli client, you need to login and then you can start the script, it will prompt you for an url match, then username if there are multiple accounts for that url, then put the username in the primary clipboard and the password in the system clipboard.

    This is great! I've been using Dotbare, GNU Stow and some of my own aliases for a while now to sync my dotfiles, and this seems like a great and simple addition to my toolkit (and graeat for regular git repo's as well!). Thank you for sharing!

  • Dotfiles backup management
    1 project | /r/opensource | 21 May 2021
    I use dotbare and sometimes stow+git to backup and version control my files in gitlab. So, this local folder is just a means of "all hope is lost but ..." solution.
