Nice, right? More over, cloud-ssh can act as full ssh replacement, since it just forward all calls to ssh command.
Configuration
By default it checks your environment for AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables. If you want advanced configuration you can create cloud-ssh.yaml in one of this directories: ./ (current), ~/.ssh/, /etc/
Note that you can define multiple clouds, per provider, if you have multi-datacenter setup or just different clients. Cloud name will be included into search term, so you can filter by it too!
Right now only 2 data cloud providers supported: Amazon EC2 and DigitalOcean.
Example configuration:
gran_ec2: # cloud name, used when searching
provider: aws
region: us-east-1
access_key: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
secret_key: BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
default_user: ubuntu
gran_digital:
provider: digital_ocean
client_id: 111111111111111111
api_key: 22222222222222222
Faq
Can it be drop-in replacement for SSH?
Totally yes! Actually it just SSH wrapper, so all SSH command options will work as before.
