Add password-protected ssh keys promptless using 1Password.
Project description
op-askpass
Load password-protected ssh keys to your agent without prompts using 1Password.
Currently tested on Ubuntu only.
Getting started
$ pip install op-askpass
# This installs 1Password cli locally.
$ op-askpass setup-op-client my.1password.com my_username@gmail.com
$ op-askpass add-key ~/.ssh/id_rsa "my 1Password item name"
# This fetches the password from 1Password and calls ssh-add.
$ op-askpass login my
If your operating system (like Ubuntu 18) automatically adds ssh keys, but does not
unlock them use op-askpass login --no-skip-existing.
If your system does not have gpg binary to verify signature of op client,
use op-askpass setup-op-client --no-verify.
Details
op-askpass stores a small configuration file and 1Password cli called op
in your $HOME/.op-askpass directory.
The configuration file contains a mapping from ssh key fingerprint to key path
and 1Password item name. The key path is needed for loading the key when
calling op-askpass login. The item name is looked up for password and
provided instead of prompt.
Underneath, op-askpass uses SSH_ASKPASS command to override prompt and
instead provide the password from 1Password. The only prompt is shown during
op-askpass login to retrieve a 30-minutes long session key.
You can list keys added to op-askpass using list-keys command, and delete not needed
ones with op-askpass delete-key <path_to_key>.
1Password integration
For regular, non-company users the 1Password domain is my.1password.com. For
company users it is usually company.1password.com.
Currently, only password 1Password items are supported.
