Go TCP Client

Go TLS TCP Client library

Goals

Definition of a secure layer transfer channel using TLS Serve/Client PEM certificates/keys only protocol.

Reference Repositories

• Go TCP Server Server side application

How does it work?

Client starts with a single client certificate/key pair.

Call --help or -h from command line to print out the Server command help.

Call help to print the list of available plugged-in commands with the syntax.

Source test script is :

[test-client-with-args.sh](/test-client-with-args.sh)

It accepts optional parameters or the help request.

Available plug-ins

Here a sample screen of commands help request:

Available commands are:

• transfer-file: transfers files, create folders and copy folder files into to the remote server

• shell: can run interactively (command prompt, without any parameter) or can run not interactively commands and script remotely, copying script files remotely, executing them and deleting the remote files at the end of the execution.

Use interactive shell:

In order to enter command shell on the remote server you can use the sample script:

./test-client-with-args.sh shell

Need sample certificates?

You can produce test client/server certificates using following provided script:

makecert.sh [-d] or using any of provided parameters. 

Run it without any parameter to read the usage.

Build client

Build client:

go.exe install -v -gcflags "-N -l" github.com/hellgate75/go-tcp-client

Integrate the client in you application

See following sample

package my-package

import(
	"github.com/hellgate75/go-tcp-client/client/worker"
	"github.com/hellgate75/go-tcp-client/common"
)

func myfunc() {
	var certPair common.CertificateKeyPair = common.CertificateKeyPair{
		Cert: "/etc/ssl/client.pem",
		Key: "/etc/ssl/client.key",
	}
	var host string = "my-remote-server-host-or-ip"
	var port string = "49022 or your custom port"
	var insecureSkipVerify bool = false //depends on the server configuration, hopefully you use mandatory certificate check!!
	var client common.TCPClient = worker.NewClient(certPair, host, port)
	client.Open(insecureSkipVerify)
	................
	................
	................
}

Plug-in commands are available for call using the client method common.TCPClient::ApplyCommand(command string, params ...interface{}) error

Get client and server

Get server:

go get -u github.com/hellgate75/go-tcp-server

Get client:

go get -u github.com/hellgate75/go-tcp-client
