1pass-env 0.1.0

A focused CLI tool for importing environment variables from 1Password items

1pass-env

A focused CLI tool for importing environment variables from 1Password items. Quickly and securely import secrets from your 1Password vaults into environment files for your development workflow.

Features

• 🔐 Secure: Import secrets directly from 1Password using the official SDK
• 🚀 Simple: One command to import all your environment variables
• 🎯 Focused: Import exactly what you need with field filtering
• 📁 Smart: Automatically detects project names from folder structure
• 🔄 Safe: Confirms before overwriting existing files

Installation

pip install 1pass-env

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8 or higher
• 1Password service account token
  • Create one at: https://my.1password.com/developer-tools/infrastructure-secrets/serviceaccount

Quick Start

1. Set up your 1Password service account token:

   export OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN="your-service-account-token"
   

2. Import all fields from a 1Password item:

   1pass-env import --name my-app
   

3. Import specific fields only:

   1pass-env import --name my-app --fields API_KEY,DATABASE_URL
   

4. Use with different vault and custom file:

   1pass-env import --vault production-secrets --name my-app --file .env.prod
   

Command Reference

import

Import environment variables from an existing 1Password item.

1pass-env import [OPTIONS]

Options:

• --vault, -v: 1Password vault name to import from (default: 'tokens')
• --name, -n: Item name in vault (default: current folder name)
• --fields, -f: Specific fields to import (comma-separated, e.g., API_KEY,SECRET_KEY)
• --file: Output file name (default: '1pass.env')
• --debug: Enable debug logging for detailed output

Examples:

# Import all fields from item 'my-app' in 'tokens' vault to '1pass.env'
1pass-env import --name my-app

# Import specific fields only
1pass-env import --name my-app --fields API_KEY,DB_PASSWORD

# Import to a custom file
1pass-env import --name my-app --file .env.production

# Use a different vault
1pass-env import --vault secrets --name my-app

# Enable debug mode to see all details
1pass-env import --name my-app --debug

# Use current folder name as item name (automatic detection)
cd my-awesome-project
1pass-env import  # Looks for item named 'my-awesome-project'

How It Works

1pass-env connects to your 1Password vault using the official SDK and imports secrets into standard environment files:

• Authentication: Uses a service account token set via OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN
• Smart defaults: Uses current folder name as item name if not specified
• Safe merging: Preserves existing variables when importing to existing files
• Field filtering: Import only the secrets you need for specific environments

Example Workflow

# Set up authentication
export OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN="your-token-here"

# Import all development secrets
1pass-env import --vault dev-secrets --name my-project --file .env.dev

# Import only production API keys
1pass-env import --vault prod-secrets --name my-project --fields API_KEY,JWT_SECRET --file .env.prod

# Use the environment files
source .env.dev && npm start
# or with dotenv in your application
python -m dotenv -f .env.prod run python app.py

Generated File Format

# Environment variables imported from 1Password
# Vault: tokens
# Item: my-app
# Generated by 1pass-env

API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:pass@localhost/db"
JWT_SECRET="your-jwt-secret"

Configuration

Configure using environment variables:

• OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN: 1Password service account token (required)

Common Use Cases

Development Environment Setup

# Import shared development secrets
1pass-env import --vault dev-team --name shared-services

# Import project-specific secrets
1pass-env import --name my-project

# Override with local development values
echo "DEBUG=true" >> 1pass.env
echo "PORT=3001" >> 1pass.env

Multi-Environment Deployment

# Import environment-specific secrets
1pass-env import --vault dev-secrets --name myapp --file .env.development
1pass-env import --vault staging-secrets --name myapp --file .env.staging  
1pass-env import --vault prod-secrets --name myapp --file .env.production

# Use with your deployment process
source .env.production && docker-compose up -d
