NSSH

NSSH is a SSH Keys Manager for node.js command-line interfaces.
It can generate a ssh key and set ssh key config and copy the public key to a remote host with one commond.
then you can use ssh login with name, no need for passwords. 
Inspired by TimothyYe/skm , which is written in go language.

Features

* generate a ssh key and set ssh key config and copy the public key to a remote host with one commond
* Manage all your SSH keys by alias names
* Choose and set a default SSH key
* Copy default SSH key to a remote host
* Rename SSH key alias name

Installation

npm install nssh -g

Usage

$ nssh

Usage: nssh <command> [options]

Options:

    -V, --version      output the version number
    -v, --version      get version
    -t, --type <n>      0:Only create a new ssh key
                        1:Create a new ssh key and set ssh key config
                        2:Create a new ssh key and copy new ssh key to remote host
                        3:Create a new ssh key and copy new ssh key to remote host and set ssh key config

    -H --host [value]  Remote host address, you can include the usename and port, E.g: [email protected]:22
    -u --user [value]  Remote host of username, default root
    -p --port [value]  Remote host of port, default 22
    -N --new_passphrase [value]  Generate ssh key's new_passphrase
    -h, --help         output usage information


Basic Examples:

    # Initialize SSH keys store
    $ nssh init

    # List all the store SSH keys
    $ nssh ls

    # Create a new ssh key
    $ nssh create node0

    # Create a new ssh key and set its config
    $ nssh create node1 -t 1 -H [email protected]

    # Create a new ssh key for github and set its config
    $ nssh create github.com -t 1 -H [email protected]

    # Create a new ssh key and copy public key to a remote host
    $ nssh create node1 -t 2 -H [email protected]

    # Create a new ssh key and set its config and copy public key to a remote host
    $ nssh create node1 -t 3 -H [email protected]

    # Copy ssh public key to a remote host
    $ nssh copy node1 [email protected]

    # Remove ssh key
    $ nssh rm default

    # Rename ssh key
    $ nssh rn default new

    # Switch to use the specified SSH key
    $ nssh use default

For the first time use

$ nssh init
✔ ssh key store initialized!
sh key store location is:C:\Users\liuyt\.nssh\

NOTE: If you already have id_rsa & id_rsa.pub key pairs in $HOME/.ssh, NSSH will move them to $HOME/.nssh/default

Create a new SSH key

$ nssh create work1 -t 3 -H [email protected]
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in C:\Users\liuyt\.nssh\.tmp\id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in C:\Users\liuyt\.nssh\.tmp\id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
SHA256:IoWtg5M1+7VUANVB/JdU2EYVGjzMh5he/iSkwNfjRp4 liuyt@DESKTOP-48BGCR8
The key's randomart image is:

nssh's Issues

mac can not work

Copy ID to Windows 10 Host?

When trying to copy my ID to Win10 I get:

'exec' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
'cat' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
The system cannot find the path specified.

Windows 10 uses Powershell instead of Bash. Could there be a way to do this in a PSH script for Win10 hosts? Or maybe check if it's powershell in general since it has ports to linux and mac.

If you would like to test and you haven't used Win10 as a host you just need to Install the "OpenSSH Server" windows feature and start the service yourself.
