Using regex?

[adamgibbins]

I'm trying to specify a host like so .*(one|two)\.foo\.com yet this isn't being matched, is only a small subset of regex supported? Or am I doing it wrong?

I'm finding validating config pretty tricky once you've loads of definitions, is there an easier way other than running ssh -v after building ssh_config? It'd be nice if there was some command you could pass a hostname and it'd spit out the config for.

I'm only using this regex as assh doesn't seem to support multiple host matches without a template - unlike normal ssh. e.g. I can't specify "*.one.foo.com" "*.two.foo.com":

The code uses path globbing - a minimal regex. That's a better match for the very limited globbing implemented in the config file parser in the typical ssh library that's going to read the generated config.

Use

Hosts:
  "*one.foo.com *two.foo.com":
      yoursshoption: x

to get

Host  *one.foo.com *two.foo.com
  yoursshoption: x

in the config.

I think the issue here is that the README mentions regex a lot of times, which leads people to think they can do complex stuff like "(host(A|B|C)\d+" and so on. It might be useful to add a section to the page that just says it supports Go's path.Match and linked to https://golang.org/pkg/path/#Match
