Unable to use Bitwarden CLI in code-server terminal #4922

When I execute the Bitwarden CLI from a code-server terminal, it immediately returns a prompt with no output whatsoever. You can't even access --help. However, if I SSH into the same box that code-server is running on with the same user that code-server is running as, I can execute it just fine.

I'm using the latest Bitwarden CLI from here:

https://vault.bitwarden.com/download/?app=cli&platform=linux

In my case this works:
NODE_OPTIONS= ./bw --help
It does not seem to like when NODE_OPTIONS is set.

We should remove this anyway: #2878

But still not sure why this causes this issue.

Firstly - do you use HTTPS? A lot of these issues are related to WebView. Does Bitwarden really work locally v/s your code-server web env?

No I'm using HTTP to access my code-server. Bitwarden does indeed work from an SSH terminal outside of VS Code, but nothing when using the code-server terminal. This can be reproduced by downloading the Bitwarden CLI and just running 'bw --help'.

It's very strange.

I sus WebView. Can you try enabling HTTPS on your instance?

However, if I SSH into the same box that code-server is running on with the same user that code-server is running as, I can execute it just fine.

I can also do this (running code-server on my macOS locally).

I don't know why it wouldn't work on a remote machine though 🤔

Can you run code-server --log trace and then try using bw again? I wonder if we'll get anything in the server logs. Or even the browser logs.

Nothing appeared in trace log. Also attached output of me running it directly in SSH session.

This is very very odd. I do see "profile not validated". Is there a different shell profile you can try?

I'm using ZSH, but I've tried .bashrc and .profile as well as switching to /bin/bash. Same results. Assuming that's what you mean.

Woah @jsjoeio are you ok? I have never seen you posting screenshots like that! Everything good?

jsjoeio Mar 1, 2022

LOL yes, don't worry. I made that in Preview on macOS 🤣 The replies in GitHub Discussions are confusing so hoping to make it more clear.

Weird, I get the same issue. I spun up code-server 4.1.0 and tried:

$ wget -O bw.zip 'https://vault.bitwarden.com/download/?app=cli&platform=linux'
$ unzip bw.zip
$ chmod +x bw
$ ./bw --help

In my case this works:

NODE_OPTIONS= ./bw --help

It does not seem to like when NODE_OPTIONS is set.

We should remove this anyway: #2878

But still not sure why this causes this issue.

Im hoping to try out HTTPS later this week when I have more time to configure it to see if that helps. If it does help, I'm using Ubuntu Server 20.04 on an Intel platform for my code-server implementation. There's nothing else installed on the box, it's super bare-bones.
