Proxy a terminal session via WebSocket

NAME

upterm-proxy - Proxy a terminal session via WebSocket

SYNOPSIS

upterm proxy [flags] URL

DESCRIPTION

Carry ssh's connection to a session over a WebSocket, as its ProxyCommand: the SSH line of a host on a ws:// or wss:// relay runs it.

URL is the ws:// or wss:// URL in the ProxyCommand of the host's SSH line. upterm join is the simpler way to join such a session: it takes the connect string on the host's Join line, and needs no ssh options.

Exit status: 1 when it can't connect to the relay, including a usage or configuration error. Once connected, 0 for end-of-input from ssh unless a relay close or read or write failure is also reported; those failures take precedence and give 1. Errors caused by proxy's own cleanup do not change the result.

OPTIONS

-h, --help[=false]
help for proxy

--proxy=""
HTTP proxy to reach the relay through (e.g. http://proxy.example.com:3128). Without it, HTTPS_PROXY/HTTP_PROXY are used.

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

--debug[=false]
Enable debug logging (log file: /build/.upterm/upterm.log). A non-empty DEBUG turns it on too.

EXAMPLE

  # A host shares a session over a WebSocket:
  upterm host --server wss://uptermd.upterm.dev
  # A guest joins with the SSH line the host prints, which runs upterm proxy:
  ssh -o ProxyCommand='upterm proxy wss://[email protected]' [email protected]:443
  # The simpler way:
  upterm join wss://[email protected]
