Podman Quadlet: Vaultwarden

Overview

Vaultwarden is a Bitwarden-compatible password manager server started as a Podman Quadlet. It provides a self-hosted alternative to the official Bitwarden server, compatible with all Bitwarden clients.

This cookbook:

  • Runs Vaultwarden as a rootless container with minimal privileges.
  • Uses PostgreSQL as the database backend (requires the postgresql cookbook).
  • Includes health checks to monitor the service status.
  • Stores vault data in /var/lib/virtiofs/data/vaultwarden/.
  • Supports automatic container image updates via Podman auto-update.

Prerequisites

  • The postgresql cookbook must be installed and running.
  • Configuration file /etc/quadlets/vaultwarden/config.env must exist.

Usage

In a separate terminal, follow the logs.

sudo make tail-logs

Install the Podman Quadlets and start Vaultwarden.

sudo make clean install

You should see the vaultwarden.service waiting for PostgreSQL to be available, then starting up.

Verify Vaultwarden is running:

curl -sSf http://127.0.0.1:8080/

Access the web vault at http://127.0.0.1:8080/ and configure your Bitwarden clients to use this server.

Restart the vaultwarden.target unit.

sudo systemctl restart vaultwarden.target

Finally, remove the quadlets, their configuration and their data.

sudo make uninstall clean

Integration tests

sudo make test
