lastpass-cli

LastPassCLI-Ruby

LastPassCLI-Ruby uses the LastPass Command Line Interface to add passwords, notes, and other secure items to the LastPass password management service, and to read those same items.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'lastpass-cli'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install lastpass-cli

Add your LastPass credentials to environment variables named LASTPASS_EMAIL and LASTPASS_PASSWORD. For development and test environments, consider using something like dotenv.

For use with Ruby on Rails, create the initializer with the following command:

rails generate lastpass_cli

If you're not using Rails, configure the gem like this:

LastpassCLI.configure do |config|
  config.username = ENV['LASTPASS_EMAIL']
  config.password = ENV['LASTPASS_PASSWORD']
end

Since LastPassCLI-Ruby is a wrapper for lastpass-cli, you'll need to install that too.

For Linux, FreeBSD, or Cygwin, see the installation instructions in the README.

For macOS or OS X, you can install lastpass-cli with Homebrew (brew install lastpass-cli --with-pinentry) or MacPorts (sudo port install lastpass-cli).

Usage

Reading items from LastPass

Look up items by Unique ID or name (with optional folder).

LastpassCLI.show("SOME_UNIQUE_ID")  # by Unique ID
LastpassCLI.show("github")          # by name
LastpassCLI.show("social/linkedin") # by name with folder
LastpassCLI.show("ssn")             # works with non-password items as well

Adding items to LastPass

LastpassCLI.add_password(
    "social/twitter",
    username: "someone",
    password: "$0m3thing-$3cr3t!",
    url: "https://twitter.com",
    notes: "Use it wisely."
)

You can also check out the usage instructions for lastpass-cli itself.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

For convenience, you may want to add your LastPass credentials to bin/console, but remember not to commit them to the repository! For example, just above Pry.start in bin/console:

LastpassCLI.configure do |config|
  config.username = "myLastpassUsername"
  config.password = "My LastPass passw0rd!"
end

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
