kpcli est un utilitaire permettant la manipulation de fichier .kdbx (ou .kbd) depuis la console. Il couvre les fonctions principales de KeePassX (copie du login/mot de passe dans le presse-papier, arborescence conservée, création de nouvelles entrées etc.)
Note: la gestion du format Keepass n’est pas strictement identique entre kpcli et KeePassX, par exemple kpcli gère les tags mais pas KeePassX. Si on en ajoute avec kpcli, ils ne seront donc pas visibles avec KeePassX!
Il suffit de lancer kpcli sans argument, puis de sauvegarder :
$ kpcli KeePass CLI (kpcli) v3.1 is ready for operation. kpcli:/> saveas foo.kdbx Please provide the master password: ************************* Retype to verify: *************************
kpcli a quelques options au démarrage. Les plus utiles étant :
$ kpcli --readonly --kdb foo.kdbx
Please provide the master password: *************************
