Use 1Password to Authenticate with Forge and Vapor Securely

Laravel community member Andre Sayej recently published two 1Password Plugins for Forge and Vapor CLIs, that enable you to securely authenticate with your fingerprint, Apple Watch, or system authentication.

Since your credentials are securely stored in 1Password, you never have to enter or use them in plaintext:

Once you've followed the installation instructions, you will be prompted to authenticate with 1Password when running the Forge/Vapor CLI:

To get started with these plugins, you can find the installation instructions in the 1Password Developer documentation:
