SSH Config JSON is dumping JSON for your ssh config include IdentityFiles and restoring those. SSH Config JSON enables you to pack and restore your SSH Config and Private Key in JSON format, allowing you to backup, put to CI and share with others in the project.

Features

  • Dumping your SSH Config to JSON and restore it
  • Packing up IdentityFiles with the JSON
  • AES encrypting with the JSON to enable pushing and saving public GitHub Repository

Getting Started

SSH Config JSON uses The Python Package Index(Pypi), so that you can use pip installer.

pip installer

$ pip install ssh-config-json

Usage

You can use global command scj .

Show help.

$ scj -h
SSH Config JSON
Overview:
  Dump JSON for your ssh config include IdentityFiles and restore those.

Usage:
  scj [-h|--help] [-v|--version]
  scj dump <file> [-c|--config=<config>] [-i|--identityFile] [-e|--encrypt] [--key=<key>]
  scj restore <file> [-c|--config=<config>] [-i|--identityFile] [-d|--decrypt=<key>]

Options:
  dump                       : dump SSH Config file to JSON
  restore                    : Restore SSH Config file from JSON
  <file>                     : Dumped json file
  -h, --help                 : Help
  -v, --version              : Show version
  -c, --config=<config>      : Specific SSH Config file path [default: ~/.ssh/config]
  -i, --identityFile         : Include IdentityFiles
  -e, --encrypt              : Encrypt JSON dump with AES
  --key=<key>                : Set specify key string
  -d, --decrypt=<key>        : Decrypt JSON dump with AES

Ex1) Dump your SSH Config to JSON

$ scj dump dump_config.json

Ex2) Dump your SSH Config to JSON with IdentityFiles

$ scj dump dump_config.json -i

Ex3) Restore JSON to SSH Config

$ scj restore dump_config.json

Ex4) Restore JSON to SSH Config with IdentityFiles

$ scj restore dump_config.json -i

Ex5) Dump your SSH Config to JSON with AES Encrypt

$ scj dump dump_config.json -i -e
Encrypt key: 1mado1wmf9amsie0jvo0kfmai9cjasfv # <= This is the "Key"!!

Ex6) Decrypt it

$ scj restore dump_config.json -i -d 1mado1wmf9amsie0jvo0kfmai9cjasfv
