        Implementation of the [Keyring](https://pypi.org/project/keyring/) backend code reading secrets from [Bitwarden](https://bitwarden.com) using [Bitwarden-cli](https://help.bitwarden.com/article/cli/)
        
        ## Overview
        
        The [Keyring](https://pypi.org/project/keyring/) python package provides a handy single point of entry for any secret holding system, allowing for seemless integration of those systems into applications needing secrets, like [twine]().
        
        This projects implement Keyring to be able to read secrets from Bitwarden, an open source multiplatform cloud/self-hostable password manager.
        
        This backend assumes that it will be used in the context of a CLI application, and that it can communicate with the user using `sdtin`, `stdout` and `stderr`. We could implement an additional backend for use in a library assuming that everything is already unlocked, or another one using `pinentry` to ask the user.
        
        
        ## Disclamer
        
        There's currently a [solved bug](https://github.com/pypa/twine/pull/408) in Twine that's keeping keyring and thus this lib from being used. If you plan to use this for Twine, either wait for a twine release or install from master:
        
        ```
        pip install git+https://github.com/pypa/twine
        ```
        
        ## Requirements
        
        This project uses the official [bitwarden CLI](https://help.bitwarden.com/article/cli/) under the hood, because there's no simple official Python bitwarden lib. Here are the installation instructions as of October 2018 and the link to the [up to date instructions](https://github.com/bitwarden/cli#downloadinstall)
        
        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.
        
        ```bash
        npm install -g @bitwarden/cli
        ```
        
        **Native Executable**
        
        Natively packaged versions of the CLI are provided for each platform which have no requirements on installing the Node.js runtime. You can obtain these from the [downloads section](https://help.bitwarden.com/article/cli/#download--install) in the Bitwarden documentation.
        
        **Other Package Managers**
        
        - [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/packages/bitwarden-cli)
          ```powershell
          choco install bitwarden-cli
          ```
        - [Homebrew](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/bitwarden-cli)
          ```bash
          brew install bitwarden-cli
          ```
        - [Snap](https://snapcraft.io/bw)
          ```bash
          sudo snap install bw
          ```
        
        ## Installation and configuration
        
        ```
        pip install bitwarden-keyring
        ```
        
        The Python packaging ecosystem can be quite a mess.

        Because of this, it's likely that your setup and my setup are nothing alike. Keyring [supports](https://pypi.org/project/keyring/#config-file-content) a configuration file with an option allowing to explicitely define the path to a backend. You may need that for your installation, or maybe not.
        
        ## Usage
        
        Use as a normal keyring backend. It is installed with priority 10 so it's likely going to be selected
        first.
        
        If you want to use it with [twine](https://pypi.org/project/twine/), good news, you're already set. Just make sure that this package is installed in the same location as twine.
        
        `bitwarden-keyring` will automatically ask for credentials when needed. If you don't want to unlock your vault every time, export the vault session to your environment (use `bw unlock` and follow the instructions, or launch `export BW_SESSION=$(bw unlock --raw)`).
        
        ## Caveats
        
        `bitwarden-keyring` will try to select an appropriate credential based on the given service name, but as of now, it can't use the normal bitwarden url match mechanism. This is likely to change when bitwarden releases a new version of the CLI thanks to [this issue](https://github.com/bitwarden/cli/issues/32).
        
        In order to know if one needs to login or just unlock the vault, `bitwarden-keyring` reads the internal datastore of `bitwarden-cli`, so as any private API, it may change without notice.
        
        `bitwarden-keyring` was only tested with:
        - macOS, using the `bitwarden-cli` from `brew`
        - ubuntu, using the `bw` from `snap`
        
        As mentionned, `bitwarden-keyring` only works in the context of a CLI application with access to standard inputs and output. If you need something that either reads silently or using another method of communication, the best is probably to make another backend and most of the functions ca be reused.
        
        ## Licensing
        
        `bitwarden-keyring` is published under the terms of the [MIT License](LICENSE.md).
        The name Bitwarden is most probably the property of 8bit Solutions LLC.
