Fork this repository and name it **NodeWarden**. 2. Click the one-click deploy button below, rename the project to **NodeWarden2**, set **JWT_SECRET** to a 32-character random string; if you **do not have a credit card**, **use KV mode** and change the deploy command to `npm run deploy:kv`. [](https://deploy.workers.cloudflare.com/?url=https://github.com/shuaiplus/nodewarden) 3. After deployment, open the Workers settings on the same page and disconnect the **Git repository**. 4. From the same location, reconnect the **Git repository** to the fork you created in step 1. > [!NOTE] R2 vs KV >- R2: typically requires a payment method; **single attachment/Send file limit is 100 MB** (**project-level limit, editable in code**); **10 GB free storage included**. >- KV: no card required; **single attachment/Send file limit is 25 MiB** (**Cloudflare platform limit, not editable**); **1 GB free storage included**. > [!TIP] Sync upstream (keep your fork updated): >- Manual: open your fork on GitHub and click **Sync fork** when prompted. >- Automatic: in your fork, go to **Actions**, click "I understand my workflows, go ahead and enable them". It will auto-sync from upstream daily at 3 AM. ### CLI deploy ```powershell # Clone repository git clone https://github.com/shuaiplus/NodeWarden.git cd NodeWarden # Install dependencies npm install # Cloudflare CLI login npx wrangler login # Create cloud resources (D1 + R2) npx wrangler d1 create nodewarden-db npx wrangler r2 bucket create nodewarden-attachments # Deploy npm run deploy # (Optional) KV mode (no R2 / no credit card) npx wrangler kv namespace create ATTACHMENTS_KV # Put returned namespace id into wrangler.kv.toml -> [[kv_namespaces]].id npm run deploy:kv # To update later: re-clone and re-deploy — no need to recreate cloud resources git clone https://github.com/shuaiplus/NodeWarden.git cd NodeWarden npm run deploy ``` --- ## Local development This repo is a Cloudflare Workers TypeScript project (Wrangler). ```bash npm install npm run dev ``` --- ## FAQ **Q: How do I back up my data?** A: Use **Export vault** in your client and save the JSON file. **Q: Which import/export formats are supported?** A: NodeWarden supports Bitwarden `json/csv/vault + attachments zip` and NodeWarden `vault + attachments json` in both plain and encrypted modes, and every format visible in the import selector is directly importable. A: It also supports direct import of Bitwarden `vault + attachments zip`, which is not directly supported by official Bitwarden Web import. **Q: What if I forget the master password?** A: It can’t be recovered (end-to-end encryption). Keep it safe. **Q: Can multiple people use it?** A: Yes. The first registered user becomes the admin. The admin can generate invite codes from the admin panel, and other users register with those codes. --- ## License LGPL-3.0 License --- ## Credits - [Bitwarden](https://bitwarden.com/) - original design and clients - [Vaultwarden](https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden) - server implementation reference - [Cloudflare Workers](https://workers.cloudflare.com/) - serverless platform --- ## Star History [](https://www.star-history.com/#shuaiplus/NodeWarden&type=timeline&legend=top-left)
