## Installation ``` python3 -m pip install --upgrade xonssh-xxh ``` After install you can just using `xxh` command as replace `ssh` to connecting to the host because `xxh` has seamless support of basic `ssh` command arguments. ## Usage ``` $ xxh --help usage: xxh [config name from ssh config] usage: xxh [ssh arguments] [user@]host[:port] [xxh arguments] usage: xxh [-h] [-V] [-p SSH_PORT] [-l SSH_LOGIN] [-i SSH_PRIVATE_KEY] [-o SSH_OPTION -o ...] [user@]host[:port] [+i] [+if] [+lxh LOCAL_XXH_HOME] [+hxh HOST_XXH_HOME] [+he HOST_EXECUTE_FILE] [+m METHOD] [+v] [+vv] The xxh is for using the xonsh shell wherever you go through the ssh. ____ __________ @ @ ______ / \ \__/ ____ / ______ \ / \ contribution _____ / / __ \ \ / _/ https://github.com/xonssh/xxh ___ ( / / / \ \ / \ \___/ / / / plugins ___\ /__/ / https://github.com/search?q=xxh-plugin / \________/ / /___________________/ required arguments: [user@]host[:port] Destination may be specified as [user@]host[:port] or server name from ~/.ssh/config common arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --version, -V show program's version number and exit ssh arguments: -p SSH_PORT Port to connect to on the remote host. -l SSH_LOGIN Specifies the user to log in as on the remote machine. -i SSH_PRIVATE_KEY File from which the identity (private key) for public key authentication is read. -o SSH_OPTION -o ...

You can create xxh plugin with your lovely aliases, tools or color theme and xxh will bring them to your ssh sessions. 🔎 [Search xxh plugins on Github](https://github.com/search?q=xxh-plugin&type=Repositories) 💡 [Create xxh plugin](https://github.com/xonssh/xxh-plugin-sample) 📌 Pinned plugins: * [Pipe Liner](https://github.com/xonssh/xxh-plugin-pipe-liner) — processing the lines easy with python and classic shell pipes * [Bar Theme](https://github.com/xonssh/xxh-plugin-theme-bar) — theme to stay focused * [Autojump](https://github.com/xonssh/xxh-plugin-autojump) — save time on moving thru directories ## Notes ### Using pip and python The xxh xonsh will use pip and python from `xonsh.AppImage` by default. You can update pip and install packages ordinally: ``` $ python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip $ python3 -m pip install --upgrade pandas ``` The packages will appear in `$XXH_HOME/pip` (`~/.xxh/pip` by default). ### How it works? When you run `xxh ` command: 1. If it needed xxh will download portable xonsh shell and store locally to future use. 2. If it needed xxh upload the portable xonsh to the host (`~/.xxh` by default) along with init scripts and plugins. 3. Finally xxh will make ssh connection to the server and run portable xonsh shell without any addition installs and affection on the target host. ## Development Use [xxh-tests](https://github.com/xonssh/xxh-tests) environment for development and contribution. ### Known Issues ### Sometimes xontribs or pip packages not found after install sometimes If an xontrib or pip package is not found immediately after install you can do reconnect. Xontribs could be reloaded manually without reconnect by executing `import importlib; importlib.reload(sys.modules['xontrib'])`. #### GLIBs versions Current method to make xonsh portable is using an [AppImage](https://appimage.org/) which was built on [manylinux2010 (PEP 571)](https://github.com/niess/linuxdeploy-plugin-python/issues/12). In case you see the error like ``/xonsh-x86_64.AppImage: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.25 not found (required by /ppp/xonsh-x86_64.AppImage)`` this means you should rebuild the AppImage for older version of linux distributive. Try [linuxdeploy-plugin-python](https://github.com/niess/linuxdeploy-plugin-python/). #### WSL1: ^Z ``` # xxh YT-1300 ^Z ``` This issue was addressed to Xonsh team in [3367](https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues/3367). Just try to run command again. #### Related issues What will make xxh more universal and stable in the future: * [AppImages run on Alpine](https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/issues/1015) * [Fix xonsh for WSL1](https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues/3367) ## Thanks * @scopatz for https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh * @probonopd for https://github.com/AppImage * @niess for https://github.com/niess/linuxdeploy-plugin-python/ * @gforsyth for https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues/3374
