SwiftSH

This is a fork of the original SwiftSH module with a handful of bug fixes and changes that I wanted for my SwiftTerm emulator. The upstream package does not seem active.

While Carthage, Pods and other platforms were originally supported, I have not attempted to update those, I have now moved to SwiftPM for it, which solved various issues for me.

Additionally, this add a callback-based authentication system, that you can now use for authenticating using the secure enclave.

Original Readme

A Swift SSH framework that wraps libssh2.

Features:

• Thread-safety
• SSH shell
• SSH command
• SCP
• SFTP
• Tests
• Documentation

📦 Installation

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is the dependency manager for Swift and Objective-C Cocoa projects. It has over ten thousand libraries and can help you scale your projects elegantly.

Add this to your Podfile:

use_frameworks!

pod 'SwiftSH'

Carthage

Carthage builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks, but you retain full control over your project structure and setup.

Add this to your Cartfile:

github "Frugghi/SwiftSH"

📖 Documentation

The API documentation is available here.

💻 Usage

Import the framework:

import SwiftSH

Execute a SSH command:

let command = Command(host: "localhost", port: 22)
// ...
command.connect()
       .authenticate(.byPassword(username: "username", password: "password"))
       .execute(command) { (command, result: String?, error) in
           if let result = result {
               print("\(result)")
           } else {
               print("ERROR: \(error)")
           }
       }

Open a SSH shell:

let shell = Shell(host: "localhost", port: 22)
// ...
shell.withCallback { (string: String?, error: String?) in
         print("\(string ?? error!)")
     }
     .connect()
     .authenticate(.byPassword(username: "username", password: "password"))
     .open { (error) in
         if let error = error {
             print("\(error)")
         }
     }
// ...
shell.write("ls -lA") { (error) in
    if let error = error {
        print("\(error)")
    }
}
// ...
shell.disconnect()
