<p align="center">You stuffed command shell with aliases, tools and colors but you lose it all when using ssh. The mission of xxh is to bring your favorite shell wherever you go through the ssh without root access and system installations.</p>

[Search xxh shell on Github](https://github.com/search?q=xxh-shell&type=Repositories) or [Bitbucket](https://bitbucket.org/repo/all?name=xxh-shell) or [create your shell entrypoint](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-shell-example) to use another portable shell.
|
|
|
|
### [Prerun plugins](https://github.com/xxh/xxh/wiki#what-is-xxh-prerun-plugin)
|
|
Prerun plugins allow to bring any portable tools, dotfiles, aliases to xxh session before running shell.
|
|
|
|
Pinned plugins: [vim](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-prerun-vim), [mc](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-prerun-mc), [docker](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-prerun-docker), [python](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-prerun-python), [xxh](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-prerun-xxh).
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
Use `xxh` as replace `ssh` to connecting to the host without changing ssh arguments:
|
|
```
|
|
xxh <host from ~/.ssh/config>
|
|
xxh [ssh arguments] [user@]host[:port] [xxh arguments]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Common examples (use `xxh --help` to get info about arguments):
|
|
```yaml
|
|
xxh myhost # connect to the host
|
|
xxh -i id_rsa -p 2222 myhost # using ssh arguments: port and key
|
|
xxh myhost +s zsh # set the shell
|
|
xxh myhost +s xonsh-appimage +hhh "~" # set /home/user as home directory (read Q&A)
|
|
xxh myhost +s bash-zero +I xxh-plugin-bash-vim # preinstall the plugin
|
|
xxh myhost +if +q # install without questions in quiet mode
|
|
xxh myhost +hh /tmp/xxh +hhr # upload xxh to /tmp/xxh and remove when disconnect
|
|
source xxh.zsh myhost +I xxh-plugin-zsh-ohmyzsh # connect in seamless mode with ohmyzsh plugin
|
|
```
|
|
To reusing arguments and simplifying xxh usage to `xxh myhost` there is [config file](https://github.com/xxh/xxh/wiki#what-is-config-file).
|
|
|
|
### Install xxh packages
|
|
```
|
|
xxh [+I xxh-package +I ...] [+L] [+RI xxh-package +RI ...] [+R xxh-package +R ...]
|
|
```
|
|
Different ways to set the xxh package source:
|
|
```
|
|
xxh +I xxh-shell-example # install from https://github.com/xxh
|
|
xxh +I https://github.com/xxh/xxh-shell-example # short url for github only, for other sources use examples below or add support
|
|
xxh +I https://github.com/xxh/xxh-shell-example/tree/mybranch # short url for github only, for other sources use examples below or add support
|
|
xxh +I xxh-shell-example+git+https://github.com/xxh/xxh-shell-example # long url for any git repo
|
|
xxh +I xxh-shell-example+git+https://github.com/xxh/xxh-shell-example/tree/mybranch # github only branch support
|
|
xxh +I xxh-shell-example+path+/home/user/my-xxh-dev/xxh-shell-example # install from local path
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## The ideas behind xxh
|
|
**Portable**. Preparing portable shells and plugins occurs locally and then xxh uploads the result to host.
|
|
No installations or root access on the host required. The security and careful about environment on the host are behind it.
|
|
|
|
**Careful**. No blindfold copying config files from local to remote host. Following the privacy and repeatability
|
|
reasons the better way is to fork the xxh plugin or shell example and pack your config to it.
|
|
|
|
**Hermetic**. If you delete `~/.xxh` directory from the remote host then xxh has never been on the host. By default your
|
|
home is `.xxh` directory and you can [choose the hermetic level of your xxh session](https://github.com/xxh/xxh/wiki#how-to-set-homeuser-as-home-instead-of-homeuserxxh).
|
|
|
|
**Be open and fork-ready**. Every repo could be forked, customized and reused without waiting for package management system,
|
|
xxh releases or any third party. Currently supported five shells and the count could be grow by community.
|
|
|
|
**Do more**. The xxh packages are not only about shells. Any type of tool or code could be behind entrypoint.
|
|
If you want to play Super Mario on the remote host just put it as entrypoint.
|
|
|
|
## Examples of use cases
|
|
### Python everywhere with xonsh
|
|
When you run `xxh myhost +s xonsh-appimage` you'll get portable python, pip and python-powered shell on the host without
|
|
any system installations on the host. Add plugins: [autojump](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-xonsh-autojump)
|
|
saves time, [pipeliner](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-xonsh-pipe-liner) manipulates lines
|
|
and [bar](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-xonsh-theme-bar) looks nice.
|
|
|
|
### Put the cozy configs to xxh session
|
|
|
|
For example there is [xxh-plugin-prerun-mc](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-prerun-mc) which creates
|
|
[Midnight Commander](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_Commander) (mc) config when you go to the host using xxh.
|
|
You can fork it and create your cozy settings for mc once and forever.
|
|
|
|
### Oh My Zsh seamless SSH ([demo](https://asciinema.org/a/rCiT9hXQ5IdwqOwg6rifyFZzb))
|
|
```shell script
|
|
source xxh.zsh myhost +I xxh-plugin-zsh-ohmyzsh +if +q
|
|
```
|
|
This command brings your current Oh My Zsh session theme to the xxh session. If you need more complex settings just fork
|
|
the [xxh-plugin-zsh-ohmyzsh](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-plugin-zsh-ohmyzsh) and hack it.
|
|
|
|
### Read host as a table with [osquery](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-shell-osquery)
|
|
```
|
|
$ xxh myhost +s osquery
|
|
osquery> SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='news';
|
|
+-----+-----+----------+-------------+-----------------+-------------------+
|
|
| uid | gid | username | description | directory | shell |
|
|
+-----+-----+----------+-------------+-----------------+-------------------+
|
|
| 9 | 9 | news | news | /var/spool/news | /usr/sbin/nologin |
|
|
+-----+-----+----------+-------------+-----------------+-------------------+
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### All in one portable home
|
|
The xxh is very agile. You can create your own `xxh-shell` (shell word means it has entrypoint) which has any portable tools
|
|
that you could help you on the host. [Bash-zero](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-shell-bash-zero) xxh-shell is one of this
|
|
platforms that could be forked and stuffed.

## Development
|
|
In the [xxh-dev](https://github.com/xxh/xxh-dev) repo there is full [docker](https://www.docker.com/)ised environment
|
|
for development, testing and contribution. The process of testing and development is orchestrated by `xde` tool and as
|
|
easy as possible.
|
|
|
|
**We have teams.** If you're in team it does not oblige to do something. The main goal of teams is to create group
|
|
of passionate people who could help or support in complex questions. Some people could be expert in one shell and
|
|
newbie in another shell and mutual assistance is the key to xxh evolution. [Ask join.](https://github.com/xxh/xxh/issues/50)
