## Usage
Executing remote ssh commands.
```yaml
name: remote ssh command
on: [push]
jobs:
build:
name: Build
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: executing remote ssh commands using password
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
password: ${{ secrets.PASSWORD }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
script: whoami
```
output:
```sh
======CMD======
whoami
======END======
out: ***
==============================================
✅ Successfully executed commands to all host.
==============================================
```
### Setting up a SSH Key
Make sure to follow the below steps while creating SSH Keys and using them.
The best practice is create the SSH Keys on local machine not remote machine.
Login with username specified in Github Secrets. Generate a RSA Key-Pair:
### Generate rsa key
```bash
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"
```
### Generate ed25519 key
```bash
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 200 -C "your_email@example.com"
```
Add newly generated key into Authorized keys. Read more about authorized keys [here](https://www.ssh.com/ssh/authorized_keys/).
### Add rsa key into Authorized keys
```bash
4 years ago
cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh b@B 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys'
```
### Add ed25519 key into Authorized keys
```bash
cat .ssh/id_ed25519.pub | ssh b@B 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys'
```
Copy Private Key content and paste in Github Secrets.
### Copy rsa Private key
```bash
clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa
```
### Copy ed25519 Private key
```bash
clip < ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
```
See the detail information about [SSH login without password](http://www.linuxproblem.org/art_9.html).
**A note** from one of our readers: Depending on your version of SSH you might also have to do the following changes:
* Put the public key in `.ssh/authorized_keys2`
* Change the permissions of `.ssh` to 700
* Change the permissions of `.ssh/authorized_keys2` to 640
### If you are using OpenSSH
If you are currently using OpenSSH and are getting the following error:
```bash
ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [none publickey]
```

Make sure that your key algorithm of choice is supported. On Ubuntu 20.04 or later you must explicitly allow the use of the ssh-rsa algorithm. Add the following line to your OpenSSH daemon file (which is either `/etc/ssh/sshd_config` or a drop-in file under `/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/`):
```bash
CASignatureAlgorithms +ssh-rsa
```
Alternatively, `ed25519` keys are accepted by default in OpenSSH. You could use this instead of rsa if needed:
```bash
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 200 -C "your_email@example.com"
```
### Example
#### Executing remote ssh commands using password
```yaml
- name: executing remote ssh commands using password
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
password: ${{ secrets.PASSWORD }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
script: whoami
```
#### Using private key
```yaml
- name: executing remote ssh commands using ssh key
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
script: whoami
```
#### Multiple Commands
```yaml
- name: multiple command
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
script: |
whoami
ls -al
```
![result](./images/output-result.png)
#### Multiple Hosts
```diff
- name: multiple host
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
- host: "foo.com"
+ host: "foo.com,bar.com"
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
script: |
whoami
ls -al
```
#### Multiple hosts with different port
```diff
- name: multiple host
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
- host: "foo.com"
+ host: "foo.com:1234,bar.com:5678"
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
script: |
whoami
ls -al
```
#### Synchronous execution on multiple hosts
```diff
- name: multiple host
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: "foo.com,bar.com"
+ sync: true
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
script: |
whoami
ls -al
```
#### Pass environment variable to shell script
```diff
- name: pass environment
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
+ env:
+ FOO: "BAR"
+ BAR: "FOO"
+ SHA: ${{ github.sha }}
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
+ envs: FOO,BAR,SHA
script: |
echo "I am $FOO"
echo "I am $BAR"
echo "sha: $SHA"
```
_Inside `env` object, you need to pass every environment variable as a string, passing `Integer` data type or any other may output unexpected results._
#### Stop script after first failure
> ex: missing `abc` folder
```diff
- name: stop script if command error
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
+ script_stop: true
script: |
mkdir abc/def
ls -al
```
output:
```sh
======CMD======
mkdir abc/def
ls -al
======END======
2019/11/21 01:16:21 Process exited with status 1
err: mkdir: cannot create directory abc/def: No such file or directory
##[error]Docker run failed with exit code 1
```
#### How to connect remote server using `ProxyCommand`?
```bash
+--------+ +----------+ +-----------+
| Laptop | <--> | Jumphost | <--> | FooServer |
+--------+ +----------+ +-----------+
```
in your `~/.ssh/config`, you will see the following.
```bash
Host Jumphost
HostName Jumphost
User ubuntu
Port 22
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/keys/jump_host.pem
Host FooServer
HostName FooServer
User ubuntu
Port 22
ProxyCommand ssh -q -W %h:%p Jumphost
```
#### How to convert to YAML format of GitHubActions
```diff
- name: ssh proxy command
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
+ proxy_host: ${{ secrets.PROXY_HOST }}
+ proxy_username: ${{ secrets.PROXY_USERNAME }}
+ proxy_key: ${{ secrets.PROXY_KEY }}
+ proxy_port: ${{ secrets.PROXY_PORT }}
script: |
mkdir abc/def
ls -al
```
#### Protecting a Private Key
The purpose of the passphrase is usually to encrypt the private key.
This makes the key file by itself useless to an attacker.
It is not uncommon for files to leak from backups or decommissioned hardware, and hackers commonly exfiltrate files from compromised systems.
```diff
- name: ssh key passphrase
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
+ passphrase: ${{ secrets.PASSPHRASE }}
script: |
whoami
ls -al
```
#### Using host fingerprint verification
Setting up SSH host fingerprint verification can help to prevent Person-in-the-Middle attacks. Before setting this up, run the command below to get your SSH host fingerprint. Remember to replace `ed25519` with your appropriate key type (`rsa`, `dsa`, etc.) that your server is using and `example.com` with your host.
In modern OpenSSH releases, the _default_ key types to be fetched are `rsa` (since version 5.1), `ecdsa` (since version 6.0), and `ed25519` (since version 6.7).
```sh
ssh example.com ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub | cut -d ' ' -f2
```
Now you can adjust you config:
```diff
- name: ssh key passphrase
uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.0
with:
host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
+ fingerprint: ${{ secrets.FINGERPRINT }}
script: |
whoami
ls -al
```
