SSH Server
The SSH server requires that the host has SSH keys, so generate SSH keys if not already:
$ ssh-keygen
Check keys were generated:
$ ls ~/.ssh
id_rsa id_rsa.pub
Run SSH server:
cointop server -p 2222
If the host SSH keys live elsewhere, specify the location:
cointop server -p 2222 -k ~/.ssh/some-dir/id_rsa
SSH into server to see cointop:
ssh localhost -p 2222
The cointop SSH server will use the client's public SSH key as the identifier for persistent config by default. You may change it to use the username instead:
cointop server -p 2222 --user-config-type=username
SSH'ing into server with same username will use the same respective config now:
ssh alice@localhost -p 2222
Pass arguments to cointop on SSH server by using SSH -t flag followed by cointop command and arguments. For example:
ssh localhost -p 2222 -t cointop --colorscheme synthwave
Using docker to run SSH server:
docker run -p 2222:22 -v ~/.ssh:/keys --entrypoint cointop -it cointop/cointop server -k /keys/id_rsa
cointop server writes the client config to /tmp/cointop_config within the container, so to make it persistent in host attach a volume. The following example will to write the cached config to ~/.cache/cointop on the host:
docker run -p 2222:22 -v ~/.ssh:/keys -v ~/.cache/cointop:/tmp/cointop_config --entrypoint cointop -it cointop/cointop server -k /keys/id_rsa
