Based on the alternative Bitwarden CLI rbw and inspired by rofi-pass, rbw-rofi is a simplistic password typer/copier using rofi and wofi.
- Autotype password or username (
Enter/Alt+3andAlt+2, respectively) - Autotype username and password (with a
tabcharacter in between) withAlt+1(and copy TOTP to clipboard) - Copy username, password or TOTP to the clipboard (
Alt+u,Alt+pandAlt+t, respectively) - Show an autotype menu with all fields
First, you need to configure rbw. See its documentation for that.
Then, you can start rofi-rbw. It is not available as a rofi mode.
You can configure rofi-rbw either with cli arguments or with a config file called $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rofi-rbw.rc. In the file, use the long option names without double dashes.

type-password (default), type-username, autotype, copy-username, copy-password, copy-totp, menu |
Chose what rofi-rbw should do. |
--prompt |

--show-help |

--selector-args |

By default, rofi-rbw shows a list of possible keybindings. If it annoys you, you can deactivate it with this parameter. |
rofi-rbw is on PyPI. You can install it with pip install --user rofi-rbw (or sudo pip install rofi-rbw).
Download the wheel file from releases and install it with sudo pip install $filename (or you can use pip install --user $filename to only install it for the local user).
Note that it needs configargparse to work.
You also need:
- Python 3.7 or higher
rofiorwofi- Something to programmatically type characters into other applications. Depending on your display server, it's
xdotoolorwtype. - Something to copy text to the clipboard. Again, depending on the display server, you want
xclip,xselorwl-copy.
