Ansible KeePass Lookup Plugin

This collection provides plugins that allows to read data from KeePass file (modifying is not supported)

How it works

The lookup plugin opens a UNIX socket with decrypted KeePass file. For performance reasons, decryption occurs only once at socket startup, and the KeePass file remains decrypted as long as the socket is open. The UNIX socket file is stored in a temporary folder according to OS.

Installation

Requirements: python 3, pykeepass==4.0.3

pip install 'pykeepass==4.0.3' --user
ansible-galaxy collection install viczem.keepass

Variables

• keepass_dbx - path to KeePass file
• keepass_psw - Optional. Password (required if keepass_key is not set)
• keepass_key - Optional. Path to keyfile (required if keepass_psw is not set)
• keepass_ttl - Optional. Socket TTL (will be closed automatically when not used). Default 60 seconds.

Usage

ansible-doc -t lookup keepass to get description of the plugin

WARNING: For security reasons, do not store KeePass passwords in plain text. Use ansible-vault encrypt_string to encrypt it and use it like below

# file: group_vars/all

keepass_dbx: "~/.keepass/database.kdbx"
keepass_psw: !vault |
      $ANSIBLE_VAULT;1.1;AES256
      ...encrypted password...
