sssh

sssh (simple ssh)

A wrapper to golang.org/x/crypto/ssh to simplify session creation

This package provides a wrapper that simplifies creating an ssh session.

The package supports creating a session, authenticated via username/password or username/private key, with optional socks5 proxy.

This is roughly equivalent to an ssh connection with the following options:

Host hostname
  ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc -x proxyserver:port %h %p
  User username
  IdentityFile privatekey-file

To use, create a new session:

session, err := sssh.NewSession("somehost:22",
	                        sssh.User(username),
	                        sssh.Password(password))
    if err != nil {
        ...
    }
defer session.Close()

Then use one of the methods in ssh.Session (https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/crypto/ssh#Session):

if err = session.Run("ls -l"); err != nil {
	...
}

Additional documentation is available at https://godoc.org/github.com/gobs/sssh.

A working example is available in the cmd/sssh subfolder.
