Overview ¶
Package ssh wraps the crypto/ssh package with a higher-level API for building SSH servers. The goal of the API was to make it as simple as using net/http, so the API is very similar.
You should be able to build any SSH server using only this package, which wraps relevant types and some functions from crypto/ssh. However, you still need to use crypto/ssh for building SSH clients.
ListenAndServe starts an SSH server with a given address, handler, and options. The handler is usually nil, which means to use DefaultHandler. Handle sets DefaultHandler:
ssh.Handle(func(s ssh.Session) { io.WriteString(s, "Hello world\n") }) log.Fatal(ssh.ListenAndServe(":2222", nil))
If you don't specify a host key, it will generate one every time. This is convenient except you'll have to deal with clients being confused that the host key is different. It's a better idea to generate or point to an existing key on your system:
log.Fatal(ssh.ListenAndServe(":2222", nil, ssh.HostKeyFile("/Users/progrium/.ssh/id_rsa")))
Although all options have functional option helpers, another way to control the server's behavior is by creating a custom Server:
s := &ssh.Server{ Addr: ":2222", Handler: sessionHandler, PublicKeyHandler: authHandler, } s.AddHostKey(hostKeySigner) log.Fatal(s.ListenAndServe())
This package automatically handles basic SSH requests like setting environment variables, requesting PTY, and changing window size. These requests are processed, responded to, and any relevant state is updated. This state is then exposed to you via the Session interface.
The one big feature missing from the Session abstraction is signals. This was started, but not completed. Pull Requests welcome!

Functions ¶
func AgentRequested ¶
AgentRequested returns true if the client requested agent forwarding.
func DefaultSessionHandler ¶
func DefaultSessionHandler(srv *Server, conn *gossh.ServerConn, newChan gossh.NewChannel, ctx Context)
func DirectTCPIPHandler ¶
func DirectTCPIPHandler(srv *Server, conn *gossh.ServerConn, newChan gossh.NewChannel, ctx Context)
DirectTCPIPHandler can be enabled by adding it to the server's ChannelHandlers under direct-tcpip.
func ForwardAgentConnections ¶
ForwardAgentConnections takes connections from a listener to proxy into the session on the OpenSSH channel for agent connections. It blocks and services connections until the listener stop accepting.
func ListenAndServe ¶
ListenAndServe listens on the TCP network address addr and then calls Serve with handler to handle sessions on incoming connections. Handler is typically nil, in which case the DefaultHandler is used.
Example ¶
package main import ( "io" "github.com/Mzack9999/ssh" ) func main() { ssh.ListenAndServe(":2222", func(s ssh.Session) { io.WriteString(s, "Hello world\n") }) }
Output:
func NewAgentListener ¶
NewAgentListener sets up a temporary Unix socket that can be communicated to the session environment and used for forwarding connections.
func Serve ¶
Serve accepts incoming SSH connections on the listener l, creating a new connection goroutine for each. The connection goroutines read requests and then calls handler to handle sessions. Handler is typically nil, in which case the DefaultHandler is used.
func SetAgentRequested ¶
func SetAgentRequested(ctx Context)
SetAgentRequested sets up the session context so that AgentRequested returns true.
Types ¶
type BannerHandler ¶
BannerHandler is a callback for displaying the server banner.
type ChannelHandler ¶
type ChannelHandler func(srv *Server, conn *gossh.ServerConn, newChan gossh.NewChannel, ctx Context)
type ConnCallback ¶
ConnCallback is a hook for new connections before handling. It allows wrapping for timeouts and limiting by returning the net.Conn that will be used as the underlying connection.
type ConnectionFailedCallback ¶

SetValue(key, value interface{}) }
Context is a package specific context interface. It exposes connection metadata and allows new values to be easily written to it. It's used in authentication handlers and callbacks, and its underlying context.Context is exposed on Session in the session Handler. A connection-scoped lock is also embedded in the context to make it easier to limit operations per-connection.

By default only the // "session" handler is enabled. ChannelHandlers map[string]ChannelHandler // RequestHandlers allow overriding the server-level request handlers or // provide extensions to the protocol, such as tcpip forwarding. By default // no handlers are enabled. RequestHandlers map[string]RequestHandler // SubsystemHandlers are handlers which are similar to the usual SSH command // handlers, but handle named subsystems. SubsystemHandlers map[string]SubsystemHandler // contains filtered or unexported fields }
Server defines parameters for running an SSH server. The zero value for Server is a valid configuration. When both PasswordHandler and PublicKeyHandler are nil, no client authentication is performed.
func (*Server) AddHostKey ¶
AddHostKey adds a private key as a host key. If an existing host key exists with the same algorithm, it is overwritten. Each server config must have at least one host key.
func (*Server) Close ¶
Close immediately closes all active listeners and all active connections.
Close returns any error returned from closing the Server's underlying Listener(s).
func (*Server) HandleConn ¶
func (*Server) ListenAndServe ¶
ListenAndServe listens on the TCP network address srv.Addr and then calls Serve to handle incoming connections. If srv.Addr is blank, ":22" is used. ListenAndServe always returns a non-nil error.
func (*Server) Serve ¶
Serve accepts incoming connections on the Listener l, creating a new connection goroutine for each. The connection goroutines read requests and then calls srv.Handler to handle sessions.
Serve always returns a non-nil error.
func (*Server) Shutdown ¶
Shutdown gracefully shuts down the server without interrupting any active connections. Shutdown works by first closing all open listeners, and then waiting indefinitely for connections to close. If the provided context expires before the shutdown is complete, then the context's error is returned.
type ServerConfigCallback ¶
type ServerConfigCallback func(ctx Context) *gossh.ServerConfig
ServerConfigCallback is a hook for creating custom default server configs
type Session ¶
type Session interface { gossh.Channel // User returns the username used when establishing the SSH connection. User() string // RemoteAddr returns the net.Addr of the client side of the connection. RemoteAddr() net.Addr // LocalAddr returns the net.Addr of the server side of the connection. LocalAddr() net.Addr // Environ returns a copy of strings representing the environment set by the // user for this session, in the form "key=value". Environ() []string // Exit sends an exit status and then closes the session. Exit(code int) error // Command returns a shell parsed slice of arguments that were provided by the // user. Shell parsing splits the command string according to POSIX shell rules, // which considers quoting not just whitespace. Command() []string // RawCommand returns the exact command that was provided by the user. RawCommand() string // Subsystem returns the subsystem requested by the user. Subsystem() string // PublicKey returns the PublicKey used to authenticate. If a public key was not // used it will return nil. PublicKey() PublicKey // Context returns the connection's context. The returned context is always // non-nil and holds the same data as the Context passed into auth // handlers and callbacks. // // The context is canceled when the client's connection closes or I/O // operation fails. Context() Context // Permissions returns a copy of the Permissions object that was available for // setup in the auth handlers via the Context. Permissions() Permissions // Pty returns PTY information, a channel of window size changes, and a boolean // of whether or not a PTY was accepted for this session. Pty() (Pty, <-chan Window, bool) // Signals registers a channel to receive signals sent from the client. The // channel must handle signal sends or it will block the SSH request loop. // Registering nil will unregister the channel from signal sends. During the // time no channel is registered signals are buffered up to a reasonable amount. // If there are buffered signals when a channel is registered, they will be // sent in order on the channel immediately after registering. Signals(c chan<- Signal) // Break regisers a channel to receive notifications of break requests sent // from the client. The channel must handle break requests, or it will block // the request handling loop. Registering nil will unregister the channel. // During the time that no channel is registered, breaks are ignored. Break(c chan<- bool) }
Session provides access to information about an SSH session and methods to read and write to the SSH channel with an embedded Channel interface from crypto/ssh.
When Command() returns an empty slice, the user requested a shell. Otherwise the user is performing an exec with those command arguments.
