## Historique du projet et usages

kpcli is a Perl command-line and interactive-shell client for KeePass database files. It gives Unix-like terminal users a way to inspect and edit KeePass 1.x and 2.x password stores without opening a graphical KeePass application.

### Historique du projet

Lester Hightower created kpcli around a practical migration need: the official project page says it was inspired by use of the Ked Password Manager CLI, `kedpm -c`, combined with a need to migrate to KeePass. That origin explains kpcli's shape as an interactive shell rather than only a collection of one-shot subcommands.

The project was hosted on SourceForge, with a homepage, file area, wiki, tickets, and source-code browser. Its Perl licensing followed Perl's own terms, and the tool grew support for KeePass 1.x and 2.x database files.

### Historique d'adoption

kpcli became a packaged utility across Unix-like distributions because it filled a narrow but persistent need: terminal access to KeePass databases. The official installation wiki noted on April 17, 2023 that most Linux and BSD distributions packaged a 3.x version, while users needing 4.x or newer for KDBX4 support might need to install it manually.

Package-manager support in Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Nix, Chocolatey, and other ecosystems reflects its status as a small security-adjacent utility rather than a large password-manager platform.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users run `kpcli` to open a KeePass database in an interactive shell, then browse, search, copy, create, edit, or otherwise manage entries from a terminal. The package is most useful for SSH sessions, scriptable maintenance workflows, and people who keep KeePass databases synced but prefer command-line interaction.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

kpcli is package-nerd interesting because it is a thin terminal layer over a widely used encrypted password database format. It represents a common packaging niche: a small CLI that makes a GUI-centered file format usable on servers, in remote shells, and in dotfile-heavy workflows.

### Chronologie

- 2012-10-13: kpcli 1.5 appeared in downstream manpage history with interactive help and password-generation improvements.
- 2023-04-17: The official installation wiki documented broad Linux and BSD packaging of kpcli 3.x.
- 2023-08-21: SourceForge project review notes associated kpcli 4.0 with full KDBX support through File::KDBX.

### Related projects

- kpcli is related to KeePass, KeePassX, File::KeePass, File::KDBX, Ked Password Manager, and other command-line password-manager tools such as pass.
