This is a small tool to manage ssh server info in command line. Write the servers' info down in the config file so that you don't need to remember the servers' ip, password or port.

• libconfig: parse cfg

• ncurse: draw gui

• sshpass: take password form config file

• for archlinux:

  pacman -S libconfig ncurse sshpass
  make
  

• for centos:

  yum install -y libconfig-devel ncurses-devel sshpass
  make
  

• for debian:

  apt install -y libncurses5-dev libconfig-dev sshpass
  make
  

• for mac:

  brew install libconfig ncurses
  brew install https://raw.github.com/eugeneoden/homebrew/eca9de1/Library/Formula/sshpass.rb
  sed -i "s/ncursesw/ncurses/g" Makefile
  make
  

• e: edit config with $EDITOR
• j: move down
• k: move up
• J: next page
• K: prev page
• r: reload
• G: move to last page
• $: move to last row of current page
• 0: move to first row of current page
• 1-9: move to page 1-9
• /: search
• n: search next
• N: search prev
• s: toggle password
• q: exit
• Enter: connect

The default config file is in $HOME/.config/ssh-tool/hosts.cfg, you can also change the file path by ssh-tool /path/to/config_file.

config template:

header=["hostname", "ip", "port", "username", "password", "intro"];
seperation_char="━"
seperation_length=90;
# how many rows to show in one page
hosts_perpage=30;
hosts=(
        {
        hostname="test1";
        ip="111.111.111.111";
        port="22";
        use_key="false"
        username="root";
        password="admin";
        comment="test1";
        proxy_hostname="test3";
        },
        {
        hostname="test2";
        ip="222.222.222.222";
        port="22";
        use_key="true"
        username="root";
        password="<usekey>";
        comment="test2";
        },
        {
        hostname="test3";
        ip="333.333.333.333";
        port="22";
        use_key="false"
        username="root";
        password="admin";
        comment="test3";
        hidden="true";
        },
        {
        hostname="test4";
        ip="444.444.444.444";
        port="22";
        use_key="false"
        proxy_hostname="test1"
        username="root";
        password="admin";
        comment="test4";
        }
      );

The host config has the following fields.

If you use identity file to login in, the password should be the path of identity file.

proxy_hostname is the hostname of proxy server, if you want to use proxy. So the hostname should be unique in the config file.
