node-red-contrib-ssh-v2
Available on NPM as https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-red-contrib-ssh-coco
Based on node-red-contrib-ssh-coco to fix multiple issues with multiple ssh nodes and with processing
multiple messages at the same time
Why?
I added this so I could turn on my linux HTPC via Alexa, triggering a WOL packet and then turn it off using SSH.
That's why SSH reconnection was important.
Changelog
- fix multiple ssh nodes in one flow
- fix processing of multiple messages at the same time
- output of ssh node now contained the original message and the ssh session
Usage
Input: msg.payload has to contain the command.
Output: none
Configuration
- Ssh: ssh key path (optional but recommended)
- Hostname: address of the target SSH server
- Name: name of the node
- Username: username of the target SSH server
- Password: password of the target SSH server (set this if not using ssh key)
To-Do (help wanted)
- Add feature to reuse hosts/accounts instead of having to re-add every time
- Add output so that other nodes can consume the result
- Add option to consume more information(e.g. hostname) from other node
