A KRunner backend for connecting to SSH hosts listed in your known_hosts file.
Simply execute the install.sh script and you are ready to go.
- Copy ssh-runner.desktop to ~/.local/share/kservices5
- Copy ssh-runner.service to ~/.local/share/dbus-1/services/com.selfcoders.ssh-runner.service
- Replace "%{BASE_DIR}" with the path to the folder containing the runner.py in ~/.local/share/dbus-1/services/com.selfcoders.ssh-runner.service
- Install Python dbus bindings:
pip install dbus-python - Restart KRunner using
kquitapp5 krunner
As every terminal emulator has different options on how to start a new SSH session, you can specify the command to open the SSH session as arguments passed to runner.py.
The {} placeholder will be replaced by the hostname.
Examples:
- Konsole:
konsole -e 'ssh {}'(default) - Tilix:
tilix -e 'ssh {}' - GNOME Terminal:
gnome-terminal -- ssh {}
Example call: /path/to/runner.py konsole -e 'ssh {}'
Open KRunner (usually Alt+F2) and search for a host listed in your known_hosts file.
Note: Make sure to disable hashing of your known_hosts file (HashKnownHOsts no in your ~/.ssh/config), otherwise SSH Runner can't find any hosts from your known_hosts file.
