func NewProxyService

func NewProxyService(
	listener net.Listener,
	logger log.Logger,
	retrieveCredentials internal.CredentialsRetriever,
) (internal.Service, error)

NewProxyService constructs a new instance of a SSH Agent ProxyService. The constructor takes a Listener, Logger and CredentialResolver. An SSH Agent ProxyService serves ssh-agent protocol requests from an in-memory keyring.

Typical usage has the SSH client delegating auth to the agent e.g.: SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/sock/.agent ssh -T git@github.com

NOTE: The keyring is populated at proxy service startup and so is unable to cope with rotation
