VSCODE DevContainer on Mac M1 - which bws installation?

Hey there!

I use VSCODE dev containers, and as part of the dev container build, I install the BWS CLI, and on my PC all is fine.

For the container build I use the base image from: Microsoft Artifact Registry which support Apple M1 chips.

As the container is linux, I thought I might be able to use this CLI version from…

wget https://github.com/bitwarden/sdk/releases/download/bws-v0.2.1/bws-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-0.2.1.zip

…but when I extract and run it I get errors due to that version before for x86/64 CPUs.

So how do I get a version for linux running on the M1?

Does anybody else run BWS CLI inside a UBUNTU container on Mac M1?

Any tips, which ZIP file do you use?

Thank you!

Hi, @Nursey

We now provide ARM Linux builds of the bws CLI since the 0.3.1 release. You should be able to download the aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu releases to use them in the Ubuntu container on your M1 Mac.
