Description

rbw is an unofficial command line client for Bitwarden. Although Bitwarden does come with its own command line client, it is limited by being stateless - to use it, you're required to manually lock and unlock the client, and pass the temporary keys around in environment variables, which makes it very difficult to use. rbw avoids this problem by maintaining a background process which is able to hold the keys in memory, similar to the way that ssh-agent or gpg-agent work. This allows the client to be used in a much simpler way, with the background agent taking care of maintaining the necessary state.

Message after installing

rbw will run rbw-agent, inheriting the environment, so if you plan to
use rbw with a self-hosted instance (such as security/vaultwarden) with
your own certificates, be sure to set the SSL_CERT_DIR or SSL_CERT_FILE
environment variables before rbw-agent runs, otherwise you will receive
an "UnknownIssuer" error.
