* Introduction
Describe briefly what the package is, what it does, and who it is for.
Bitwarden.el is a Bitwarden porcelain for Emacs. It aims to be a
complete text-based interface for the [[https://github.com/bitwarden/cli][Bitwarden CLI]].
Most of its public function are transient functions from the
transient library to provide the user an easy-to-use interface with
most of its options exposed.

* Installation

A couple of options are available for installing bitwarden.el.
The first one is to clone the repository in your ~load-path~ and add the
following to your ~.emacs~ or your ~init.el~:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(require 'TEMPLATE-NAME)
(require 'bitwarden.el)
#+end_src
In my case, I prefer using ~use-package~ with ~straight~:

* Notes
** Login
Loging in with the ~--apikey~ option is not supported due to its
interactive nature.
Bitwarden allows three different sources for your password:
- a plain password as an argument following the username
- an environment variable containing the password
- a file containing the password
Bitwarden.el allows a fourth option: the authinfo file on computer. To
use this option, simply add the following line in your ~.authinfo~ or
~.authinfo.gpg~ file:
#+begin_src text
machine bitwarden.example.com login yourusername password yourpassword
#+end_src
Of course, you will have to replace ~bitwarden.example.com~ with the
actual server, ~yourusername~ with your actual username, and
~yourpassword~ with your actual password. If you do not set your
username or your password in bitwarden.el, the package will look for
them in your auth source file on login. Bitwarden.el retrieves the
server name from the command
#+begin_src bash
$ bw config server
#+end_src
and it strips the result from any ~http://~ or ~https://~ prefix. For
instance, if the command returns ~https://example.com/bitwarden~,
bitwarden.el will look for ~example.com/bitwarden~ in your authinfo
file.
* Customizing
Indicate the various customization options available, e.g. variables
and faces. For each one of them, give a brief description and their
default value.
Bitwarden.el has a couple of customizable variables you can find in
the ~bitwarden~ group when executing ~M-x customize-group~. Here is a
quick description of these variables:
- ~bitwarden-cli-executable~ :: Your Bitwarden CLI executable. Set this
variable if Emacs doesnt find ~bw~ in your ~$PATH~ or if ~bw~ does not
refer to your Bitwarden CLI.
Default value: ~bw~
- ~bitwarden-default-cli-arguments~ :: A list of the default arguments
to pass to Bitwarden CLI. By default, only the package only passes
~--nointeraction~ in order to inhibit any attempt from the CLI to
launch anything interactive --- it should be taken care of by the
package itself.
Default value: ~'("--nointeraction")~
