Usage

1. Write a config file named config.json
2. Start with command line rmate-server -c config
3. Create an ssh tunnel ssh -R 52698:127.0.0.1:52698 user@example.org
4. On your remote system run rmate -w file

Tips

1. If you want auto create a tunnel whenever you connect to a ssh server, put this into ~/.ssh/config

   Host *
   RemoteForward 52698 localhost:52698
   

2. For secure reason, rmate-server listen loopback interface '127.0.0.1' as default rather than '0.0.0.0'.

3. In WSL(Windows Subsystem Linux) environment, you need run rmate-server on windows, and there is no need to create a tunnel.

4. For docker, I'am pretty sure there is a way, I didn't try it yet, if somebody has an experience, please make a pr.

5. Never run rmate-server as root user unless you know what you are doing.
