keepass-env

Read key-value pairs from .kdbx file and set them as environment variables or return as dict. .kdbx entries can store key-value attributes. This tool takes a path to entry and loads it's attributes.

install

pip install keepass-env

usage

import keepass_env

db_filename = 'my_database.kdbx'
password = 'secure-af'
entry_path = ['group0', 'subgroup1', 'my_entry']

# load to os.environ
keepass_env.load_env(db_filename, entry_path, password=password)

# return as dict
keepass_env.env_values(db_filename, entry_path, password=password)
{'KEY_0': 'value-0', 'KEY_1': 'value-1'}

# write env
keepass_env.write_env(db_filename, entry_path, password=password, env={
    'MY_KEY_0': 'my-value-0',
    'MY_KEY_1': 'my-value-1',
})

entry references

This tool supports entry references. For example some entry have following key-value attributes:

KEY_0 value-0
KEY_1 ref@group5/entry42:API_TOKEN

Value for KEY_1 will be loaded from another entry with path ['group5', 'entry42'] and will be taken from its attribute API_TOKEN.

• Format of references is prefix ref@, path separator / attribute separator :.
• Multiple references are supported. (If referenced value is also reference and so on, it will be looked up recursively)
• You can also reference to title, username, password, url of an entry with using following format:
  • ref@group5/entry42:__title__
  • ref@group5/entry42:__username__
  • ref@group5/entry42:__password__
  • ref@group5/entry42:__url__
• username, password, url can also be a refernces. title can't be a reference

print to stdout

This package comes with console script keepass-env (It will be accessible after pip installation).

keepass-env --db mydb.kdbx --password secure-af --entry-path group0/subgroup1/my_entry
KEY_0=value-0
KEY_1=value-1

# to print in shell format, use --format shell
keepass-env --db mydb.kdbx --password secure-af --entry-path group0/subgroup1/my_entry --format shell
export KEY_0=value-0
export KEY_1=value-1

# --format docker
keepass-env --db mydb.kdbx --password secure-af --entry-path group0/subgroup1/my_entry --format docker
-e KEY_0=value-0 -e KEY_1=value-1

# configuration via env variables are also available:
KEEPASS_DB=mydb.kdbx KEEPASS_PASSWORD=secure-af KEEPASS_ENTRY_PATH=group0/subgroup1/my_entry KEEPASS_FORMAT=shell
export KEY_0=value-0
export KEY_1=value-1

If you do not specify --password argument or KEEPASS_PASSWORD variable, you will be asked to enter a password in the command line.

Printing variables can be used to load them before running some command in the shell:

eval "$(keepass-env --db my.kdbx --password 1234 --entry-path main/project-x)" python main.py

Or you can put in Makefile like this:

.PHONY: run
run:
	eval "$$(keepass-env --db my.kdbx --password 1234 --entry-path main/project-x)" python main.py

# another example:

.PHONY: run_fastapi_app
run_fastapi_app:
	eval "$$(keepass-env --db my.kdbx --password 1234 --format shell --entry-path main/project-x)"; \
	uvicorn server:app
