* PM-10684 - ServiceContainer - Add better docs * PM-10684 - UserAutoUnlockKeyService - setUserKeyInMemoryIfAutoUserKeySet - refactor method to return a bool instead of nothing so users can know if a user key was retrieved & set without another call. * PM-10684 - Remove async code ( Program.ts) responsible for setting the auto user key from the session option handler (event emitter which fires when a user passes --session <sessionKey> to a command). Returning this to synchronous execution prevents a race condition between the setting of the user key and the command executing the exitIfLocked logic in the base-program which would check if the user key had been set to determine if the command should be allowed to execute or if the user was locked. When running a loop from a script, the command would often trigger the exitIfLocked before the auto user key could be set in state from the option:session session. * PM-10684 - Clean up missed item per PR feedback |

Bitwarden Command-line Interface
The Bitwarden CLI is a powerful, full-featured command-line interface (CLI) tool to access and manage a Bitwarden vault. The CLI is written with TypeScript and Node.js and can be run on Windows, macOS, and Linux distributions.
Developer Documentation
Please refer to the CLI section of the Contributing Documentation for build instructions, recommended tooling, code style tips, and lots of other great information to get you started.
User Documentation
Download/Install
You can install the Bitwarden CLI multiple different ways:
NPM
If you already have the Node.js runtime installed on your system, you can install the CLI using NPM. NPM makes it easy to keep your installation updated and should be the preferred installation method if you are already using Node.js.
npm install -g @bitwarden/cli
Native Executable
We provide natively packaged versions of the CLI for each platform which have no requirements on installing the Node.js runtime. You can obtain these from the downloads section in the documentation.
Other Package Managers
- Chocolatey
choco install bitwarden-cli
- Homebrew
brew install bitwarden-cli
⚠️ The homebrew version is not recommended for all users.
Homebrew pulls the CLI's GPL build and does not include device approval commands for Enterprise SSO customers.
- Snap
sudo snap install bw
Help Command
The Bitwarden CLI is self-documented with --help
content and examples for every command. You should start exploring the CLI by using the global --help
option:
bw --help
This option will list all available commands that you can use with the CLI.
Additionally, you can run the --help
option on a specific command to learn more about it:
bw list --help
bw create --help
Help Center
We provide detailed documentation and examples for using the CLI in our help center at https://help.bitwarden.com/article/cli/.
