# SSHMon
SSHMon is a program designed to manage and monitor ssh connections.
It has been tested on Linux and OSX with SSH ≥ 6.7.
## How it works
SSHMon builds on top of the SSH "Control Master" feature, that facilitates port forwarding setup.
## Disclaimer
- SSHMon Features (e.g. SSH host definition and connection) are exposed through the GUI. As a consequence, extreme care should be taken to make sure it is only reachable by you. Use at your own risk.
- SSHMon is still at an early stage of development, as a result some things might not work and we might introduce some breaking changes... Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!
## Features
- Nice GUI
- SSH port/socket forwarding management
- Configuration with YAML file
- Automatic start and retry of connection and port forwarding
- HTTP forwarding
## Get started
Download the [latest release](https://github.com/hpello/sshmon/releases/latest) of SSHMon for your system and unpack it. Run the `sshmon` binary:
```bash
./sshmon
```
Then you can access the web GUI at .
Go and have a look at the [Tutorial](docs/tutorial.md) to set up your first host!
### Build from source
```bash
yarn
yarn build
yarn start
```
## Configure
You can set up SSH connections through the GUI or with a configuration file.
By default, SSHMon will create a config file located at `~/.sshmon/config.yml`.
You also may specify your own configuration file on the command line.
Head over to the [Configuration](docs/configuration.md) page for more details.
## Logging
Logging is handled by the [bunyan](https://github.com/trentm/node-bunyan) library. A `bunyan` process is launched along with SSHMon and writes logs to stderr.
By default, if stderr is a TTY, the logs are pretty-printed, else they are written in a JSON format.
You may use the `BUNYAN_OPTS` environment variable to choose which args are passed to the `bunyan` process, e.g.:
```bash
BUNYAN_OPTS='-l debug' ./sshmon
```
## Test
Docker and docker-compose are required.
You may run the test suite with:
```bash
yarn test
```
## Troubleshooting
- So far, only public/private key authentication is supported.
- Before trying to connect to a host through SSHMon, make sure you can connect to it with SSH on the command line.
## Built with
SSHMon was developped thanks to the following projects (this list is not exhaustive!):
- [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)
- [React](https://reactjs.org/)
- [Redux](https://redux.js.org/)
- [Bulma](https://bulma.io/)
- [Bulmaswatch](https://jenil.github.io/bulmaswatch/)
- [Socket.IO](https://socket.io/)
- [Bunyan](https://github.com/trentm/node-bunyan)
- [pkg](https://github.com/zeit/pkg)
## TODO
- Allow to change GUI address
- Offer multiple GUI themes
- Allow custom global SSH config options
- Use BatchMode for `ProxyJump` SSH hosts
