# ssh_config
|
||||
|
||||
This is a Go parser for `ssh_config` files. Importantly, this parser attempts
|
||||
to preserve comments in a given file, so you can manipulate a `ssh_config` file
|
||||
from a program, if your heart desires.
|
||||
|
||||
It's designed to be used with the excellent
|
||||
[x/crypto/ssh](https://golang.org/x/crypto/ssh) package, which handles SSH
|
||||
negotiation but isn't very easy to configure.
|
||||
|
||||
The `ssh_config` `Get()` and `GetStrict()` functions will attempt to read values
|
||||
from `$HOME/.ssh/config` and fall back to `/etc/ssh/ssh_config`. The first
|
||||
argument is the host name to match on, and the second argument is the key you
|
||||
want to retrieve.
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
port := ssh_config.Get("myhost", "Port")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Certain directives can occur multiple times for a host (such as `IdentityFile`),
|
||||
so you should use the `GetAll` or `GetAllStrict` directive to retrieve those
|
||||
instead.
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
files := ssh_config.GetAll("myhost", "IdentityFile")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also load a config file and read values from it.
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
var config = `
|
||||
Host *.test
|
||||
Compression yes
|
||||
`
|
||||
|
||||
cfg, err := ssh_config.Decode(strings.NewReader(config))
|
||||
fmt.Println(cfg.Get("example.test", "Port"))
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Some SSH arguments have default values - for example, the default value for
|
||||
`KeyboardAuthentication` is `"yes"`. If you call Get(), and no value for the
|
||||
given Host/keyword pair exists in the config, we'll return a default for the
|
||||
keyword if one exists.
|
||||
|
||||
### Manipulating SSH config files
|
||||
|
||||
Here's how you can manipulate an SSH config file, and then write it back to
|
||||
disk.
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
f, _ := os.Open(filepath.Join(os.Getenv("HOME"), ".ssh", "config"))
|
||||
cfg, _ := ssh_config.Decode(f)
|
||||
for _, host := range cfg.Hosts {
|
||||
fmt.Println("patterns:", host.Patterns)
|
||||
for _, node := range host.Nodes {
|
||||
// Manipulate the nodes as you see fit, or use a type switch to
|
||||
// distinguish between Empty, KV, and Include nodes.
|
||||
fmt.Println(node.String())
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Print the config to stdout:
|
||||
fmt.Println(cfg.String())
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Spec compliance
|
||||
|
||||
Wherever possible we try to implement the specification as documented in
|
||||
the `ssh_config` manpage. Unimplemented features should be present in the
|
||||
[issues][issues] list.
|
||||
|
||||
Notably, the `Match` directive is currently unsupported.

## Errata
|
||||
|
||||
This is the second [comment-preserving configuration parser][blog] I've written, after
|
||||
[an /etc/hosts parser][hostsfile]. Eventually, I will write one for every Linux
|
||||
file format.
