Notes on scripts

A few scripts are run through systemd and require the $BWS_ACCESS_TOKEN secret. Create bws-access-token-env file that assigns $BWS_ACCESS_TOKEN to the value of your BitWarden Secrets Manager Access Token.

1. Get the bws CLI from the Bitwarden SDK GitHub releases page.
2. Move the bws file to /usr/local/bin
3. su
4. cd ~
5. touch bws-access-token-env
6. Go to the Bitwarden Secrets Manager website.
7. (Optional) Go to the machine accounts section and revoke any existing machine accounts.
8. Press "+New" button.
9. Create a new machine account.
10. echo "BWS_ACCESS_TOKEN=<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>" > bws-access-token-env
11. exit
