# copies password from the referenced entry (or stdinput)
keydex copy ~/example.kdbx /example/group/entryUsing environment variables and aliases you can save a couple of keystrokes
# ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
export KEYDEX_PASSPHRASE=${MY_SECRET_PHRASE}
export KEYDEX_DATABASE=~/example.kdbx
alias entry-pwd="keydex copy /example/group/entry"

$ entry-pwdOpening a given entry and listing accept environment variables too.

keydex open /example/group/entry
# lists all the entries in the database
