manssh

manssh is a command line tool for managing your ssh alias config easily, inspired by storm project, powered by Go.

Note: This project is actually a simple glue project, the most complex and core parsing ssh config file logic implements by ssh_config, I didn't do much. At first it was just a imitation of storm, now it has become a little different.

• Add, list, query, delete ssh alias record.
• Backup ssh config.

Add a new alias

# manssh add test2 2.2.2.2
# manssh add test1 [email protected]:77 -c IdentityFile=~/.ssh/wendell
% manssh add test1 [email protected]:77 -i ~/.ssh/wendell
✔ alias[test1] added successfully.

        test1 -> [email protected]:77
                identityfile = /Users/wendell/.ssh/wendell

Username and port config is optional, the username is current login username and port is 22 by default. Using -c to set more config options. For convenience, -i xxx can instead of -c identityfile=xxx.

List or query alias

# manssh list
# manssh list "*"
# manssh list Test -ic
% manssh list test1 77
✔ Listing 1 records.

        test1 -> [email protected]:77
                identityfile = /Users/wendell/.ssh/wendell

It will display all alias records If no params offered, or it will using params as keywords query alias records. If there is a -it option, it will ignore case when searching.

Update an alias

# manssh update test1 -r test2
# manssh update test1 [email protected]:22022
% manssh update test1 -i "" -r test3 -c hostname=3.3.3.3 -c port=22022
✔ alias[test3] updated successfully.

        test3 -> [email protected]:22022

Update an existing alias record, it will replace origin user, hostname, port config's if connected string param offered. You can use -c to update single and extra config option, -c identityfile= -c proxycommand= will remove identityfile and proxycommand options. For convenience, -i xxx can instead of -c identityfile=xxx Rename the alias specified by -r flag.

Delete one or more alias

# manssh delete test1
% manssh delete test1 test2
✔ alias[test1,test2] deleted successfully.

Backup ssh config

% manssh backup ./config_backup
✔ backup ssh config to [./config_backup] successfully.

For Include directive

If you use the Include directive, there are some extra notes.

Add -p(--path) flag for list,add,update,delete command to show the file path where the alias is located, it can also be set by the MANSSH_SHOW_PATH environment variable.

MANSSH_SHOW_PATH

Set to true to show the file path where the alias is located. Default is false.

Add -ap(--addpath) flag for add command to specify the file path to which the alias is added, it can also be set by the MANSSH_ADD_PATH environment variable.

MANSSH_ADD_PATH

This file path indicates to which file to add the alias. Default is the entry config file.

For convenience, you can export these environments in your .zshrc or .bashrc, example:

export MANSSH_SHOW_PATH=true
export MANSSH_ADD_PATH=~/.ssh/config.d/temp
