1Password local search

This is an unofficial tool focused on listing and decryption of secrets with increased performance comparing to native op CLI

1Password version compatibility

• releases under 1.0.0 are for 1Password7
• releases after 1.0.0 are for 1Password8

How to use ?

This tool do not replace the official CLI op of 1Password. You still need it to perform signin and grab session keys.

So, ensure that you have registered the OP_SESSION_team in your environment.

Database path

The script will try to search the database at standard path depending on your platform. It it fails or if you want to use another database, you could set the env variable ONEPASSWORD_LOCAL_DATABASE_PATH with the path of the B5.sqlite database you want to use.

Get decrypted value

op-local get uuid [field] [--use-custom-uuid] [--use-lastpass-uuid]

TOTP

If you have created a field untitled "One-time password" with a field type "One time password", you can retrieve the value of the totp by using the special field totp. For example: op-local get uuid totp.

List items

op-local list [--format='{uuid} {title}'] [--filter=''] [--output-encoding=json]

The format string allows you to customize the ouput format of the list items. You can use any field, the first match in any section will be used.

op-local list --format='{uuid}|{title}|{username}|{password}'

The filter will only return entries whose title contains the filter string.

By appending, --output-encoding=json, you can generate proper JSON encoded lists. For example:

op-local list --format='{{"uuid": "{uuid}", "title": "{title}"}},' --output-encoding=json

Is authenticated

op-local is-authenticated

Check if the 1Password session is opened.

UUID mapping

uuid in 1Password changes when you move an item from one vault to another. To prevent this issue, a custom uuid mapping feature has been implemented.

You need to add on each item a field named UUID.

Then run op-local mapping update to generate the mapping talbe relationship.

You can now get an item using your own UUID by appending the --use-custom-uuid flag to the get command.

--use-lastpass-uuid flag does the same thing but with a LASTPASS_ID field.

You can display UUID mapping by running op-local mapping list.

Since 0.16, and as, UUID v4, Lastpass ID and 1Password UUID are totally different, the search will be performed over the adequate field regarding which type of uuid is given, without having to use any special flag.

Multiple accounts

This project support multi-accounts decryption. However, keep in mind that you need:

• to authenticate with the main account of your 1Password desktop client
• to authenticate with the others accounts you want to use

Known limitations

• Currently, vaults of type E (family shared ?) are not supported. I don't have the need of this kind of vaults currently. Not sure that I will work on this.
• Vaults which are not shared with you are not excluded and will fail the list process. I guess this is an easy fix that will come in a next release.
• Groups permissions are not implemented. Users must be attached to each vaults manually.

Why this project ?

We use Ansible to manage infrastructures and use a lookup plugin to grab hundred of secrets. We used to use LastPass but we decided to move away due to unreliable API calls and unsupported CLI. First benchmarcks of the native op tool, have demonstrated really poor performance around 3 to 4s to retrieve one secret. As the CLI tool does request to 1Password server to retrieve secrets, performance is directly impacted by how far your are from their servers.

Benchmarks

Get command

Official op cli 50,6s

Performance may depends on how far you are of a 1Password data-center. I live in South of France, nearest is Frankfurt.

Development

Development requirements are listed in requirements/dev.txt

mkvirtualenv3 op-local-search
workon op-local-search
pip3 install -r requirements/dev.txt

Testing

Testing is done through pytest. Tests have not been updated for releases after 1.0.0. It requires a new testing database with new format of 1Password8.

Acknowledgments

This tool couldn't have been possible without the awesome work of David Schuetz. (@dschuetz) https://github.com/dschuetz/1password

I would like also to thanks the support team of 1Password and in particular @cohix which helped me a lot to understand the remaining internals of 1Password.

Big thanks also to Joël Franusic and his work on JWK https://github.com/jpf/okta-jwks-to-pem. That helped me to drastically improve the performance of the app.

Thanks so much, everyone !
