Configuration like ~/.ssh/config #4

Open KevinGimbel opened 5 years ago

KevinGimbel commented 5 years ago

By using the ~/.ssh/config file on my PC, ssh can be configured to allow easy and quick connections to remote servers by simply typing a hostname, e.g. ssh my-server-1 and all configuration is taken from the ~/.ssh/config file.

I would like to have a similar way to configure mssh so that I could just do mssh my-server-2 and the ID, username, and profile is taken from the config file. The syntax could be the same, e.g.

# ~/.mssh/config
Host my-server-2
  User ubuntu
  Id i-04be40ce96fd3f85
  Profile my-profile
  AvailabilityZone eu-central-1b
  Region eu-central-1b

As we have a quite a lot of servers this is a function I am missing at the moment compared to using SSH directly.

This feature request is already in our backlog. I will update here once we have more info on it.

To expand on that. It'd be nice to even use the same ssh config file or at least being able to script SSH via SSM tunneling similar to:

Host *
TCPKeepAlive yes
ServerAliveInterval 30
ConnectTimeout 10

host i-*.* mi-*.*
  ProxyCommand bash -c "aws ssm start-session --target $(echo %h|cut -d'.' -f1) --region $(echo %h|/usr/bin/cut -d'.' -f2) --document-name AWS-StartSSHSession --parameters 'portNumber=%p'"
  User ec2-user
host i-* mi-*
  ProxyCommand bash -c "aws ssm start-session --target %h --document-name AWS-StartSSHSession --parameters 'portNumber=%p'"
  User ec2-user

Then you would just:

mssh ec2-user@i-0ded1d8c2282ee39e.ap-southeast-2

or

mssh i-0ded1d8c2282ee39e.ap-southeast-2

Take a look to this implementation of ssh_config. I think you can do your changes for provide the region, etc as extra arguments to the aws-proxy script.
