## Usage

Start the server

```console
$ sshportal
2017/11/13 10:58:35 Admin user created, use the user 'invite:BpLnfgDsc2WD8F2q' to associate a public key with this account
2017/11/13 10:58:35 SSH Server accepting connections on :2222
```

Link your SSH key with the admin account

```console
$ ssh localhost -p 2222 -l invite:BpLnfgDsc2WD8F2q
Welcome Administrator!

Your key is now associated with the user "admin@sshportal".
Shared connection to localhost closed.
$
```

Drop an interactive administrator shell

```console
ssh localhost -p 2222 -l admin


    __________ _____           __       __
   / __/ __/ // / _ \___  ____/ /____ _/ /
  _\ \_\ \/ _  / ___/ _ \/ __/ __/ _ '/ /
 /___/___/_//_/_/   \___/_/  \__/\_,_/_/


config>
```

Create your first host

```console
config> host create bart@foo.example.org
1
config>
```

List hosts

```console
config> host ls
  ID | NAME |           URL           |   KEY   | PASS | GROUPS | COMMENT
+----+------+-------------------------+---------+------+--------+---------+
   1 | foo  | bart@foo.example.org:22 | default |      |      1 |
Total: 1 hosts.
config>
```

Get the default key in authorized_keys format

```console
config> key inspect default
[...]
    "PubKey": "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQCvUP/8FedyIe+a+RWU4KvJ1+iZwtWmY9czJubLwN4RcjKHQMzLqWC7pKZHAABCZjLJjVD/3Zb53jZwbh7mysAkocundMpvUL5+Yb4a8lDiflXkdXT9fZCx+ibJBk4jRnKLGIneSzVtFEerEwQKKnKQoCgPkZwCDaL/jHhDlOmAvxqAJrjiy42HXwppX2UuF8zujs6OKHRYJ/Q1vo0caa6/o1eoyXE9OrOwIk+IcAN3YIQi/B1BOlZOQBzHIZz83AFlD2TcPhyYcbxPyKGih84Zr3rQaaP1WiaiPqxzp3s5OhTLthc5XtCSLzmRSLvgC2eFdNhBDB5KLtO2khBkz5ID",
[...]
config>
```

Add this key to the server

```console
$ ssh bart@foo.example.org
> umask 077; mkdir -p .ssh; echo ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQCvUP/8FedyIe+a+RWU4KvJ1+iZwtWmY9czJubLwN4RcjKHQMzLqWC7pKZHAABCZjLJjVD/3Zb53jZwbh7mysAkocundMpvUL5+Yb4a8lDiflXkdXT9fZCx+ibJBk4jRnKLGIneSzVtFEerEwQKKnKQoCgPkZwCDaL/jHhDlOmAvxqAJrjiy42HXwppX2UuF8zujs6OKHRYJ/Q1vo0caa6/o1eoyXE9OrOwIk+IcAN3YIQi/B1BOlZOQBzHIZz83AFlD2TcPhyYcbxPyKGih84Zr3rQaaP1WiaiPqxzp3s5OhTLthc5XtCSLzmRSLvgC2eFdNhBDB5KLtO2khBkz5ID >> .ssh/authorized_keys
```

Profit

```console
ssh localhost -p 2222 -l foo
bart@foo>
```

Invite friends

```console
config> user invite bob@example.com
User 2 created.
To associate this account with a key, use the following SSH user: 'invite-NfHK5a84jjJkwzDk'.
config>
```

## CLI

sshportal embeds a configuration CLI.

By default, the configuration user is `admin`, (can be changed using `--config-user=<value>` when starting the server.

Each commands can be run directly by using this syntax: `ssh admin@portal.example.org <command> [args]`:

```
ssh admin@portal.example.org host inspect toto
```

You can enter in interactive mode using this syntax: `ssh admin@portal.example.org`

## Docker

Docker is the recommended way to run sshportal.

An [automated build is setup on the Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/moul/sshportal/tags/).

```console
# Start a server in background
#   mount `pwd` to persist the sqlite database file
docker run -p 2222:2222 -d --name=sshportal -v "$(pwd):$(pwd)" -w "$(pwd)" moul/sshportal:v1.3.0

# check logs (mandatory on first run to get the administrator invite token)
docker logs -f sshportal
```

The easier way to upgrade sshportal is to do the following:

```sh
# we consider you were using the version v1.2.0 and you want to use the new version v1.3.0

# stop and rename the last working container + backup the database
docker stop sshportal
docker rename sshportal sshportal_old
cp sshportal.db sshportal.db.bkp

# run the new version
docker run -p 2222:2222 -d --name=sshportal -v "$(pwd):$(pwd)" -w "$(pwd)" moul/sshportal:v1.3.0
# check the logs for migration or cross-version incompabitility errors
docker logs -f sshportal
```

Now you can test ssh-ing to sshportal to check if everything looks OK.

In case of problem, you can rollback to the latest working version with the latest working backup, using:

```sh
docker stop sshportal
docker rm sshportal
cp sshportal.db.bkp sshportal.db
docker rename sshportal_old sshportal
docker start sshportal
docker logs -f sshportal
```

## Manual Install

Get the latest version using GO.

```sh
go get -u github.com/moul/sshportal
```

## Backup / Restore

sshportal embeds built-in backup/restore methods which basically import/export JSON objects:

```sh
# Backup
ssh admin@sshportal config backup  > sshportal.bkp

# Restore
ssh admin@sshportal config restore < sshportal.bkp
```

This method is particularly useful as it should be resistant against future DB schema changes (expected during development phase).

I suggest you to be careful during this development phase, and use an additional backup method, for example:

```sh
# sqlite dump
sqlite3 sshportal.db .dump > sshportal.sql.bkp

# or just the immortal cp
cp sshportal.db sshportal.db.bkp
```
