Hi there!
Thanks for maintaining this extension!

Now it does not work with other terminals than "nano".

Just for my own use, I changed the following lines in the code to make it work with "gnome-terminal":

getTerminalCommand() {
<...>
    const SSH_COMMAND = ' -- ssh';
    let LINUX_TERMINAL = 'gnome-terminal';
<...>
}

Please include such fields in the settings if possible, so that users can configure their own terminal!

The SSH Quick Connect extension is broken on a stock Ubuntu 23.10 install. The following error is emitted:

The settings of extension [email protected] had an error:

OS is Ubuntu Jammy
my default ssh config is in .ssh/config

I set up a extension_config file for this extension and set that as the "SSH Config Locations" field in the gui.

While it reads the hosts from the extension_config file in the display list, I discovered that it reads the actual configs from the config file still. So to make it work i have to setup the config in config and then only the Host in extension_config.

Working setup:
.ssh/config:

Host server1
  HostName 192.168.10.12
  User admin
  IdentiyFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa.1

.ssh/extension_config:

Host server1

Not working setup:
.ssh/config:

.ssh/extension_config:

Host server1
  HostName 192.168.10.12
  User admin
  IdentiyFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa.1

Hi,

Is it possible to make the extension compatible with gnome 43?

Thank you very much!!

One use case which I would love to see:

• nautilus (or other software) can access ssh servers with sftp/scp interface
• I constantly is working on ssh machines but have sometimes to connect to selected machine via sftp (upload/download something)
• it would be great to have additional button beside the ssh connection name in order to execute such thing eg. nautilus sftp://ssh-server-dev1

Was looking at the implementation of Menu in shell extension and right now does not see anything suitable other than construct custom composite widget for this. Toggle could not be used for this, submenu is awkward because one cannot start ssh with one click.

Please consider adding instructions on how to install this very useful extension. Thank you.

Hi there!
Thanks fpr the nice extension.

Please give a way to set the best fashion to start the terminal.
Different GUIs may have different ways to call the standard terminal.
Ex. at Fedora "x-terminal-emulator" does NOT work at all.

It would be much appreciated if support for Gnome 44 is added.

Thanks

ssh.config 'Host' line allows Multiple space-separated entries, and wildcards. Neither works with ssh command.
I suggest splitting each Host line, and filtering out any entry with a wildcard.
I have done limited testing with the following minimal change to the parseHosts function, and it appears to work (I am not proficient in javaScript, so there is likely a better way to do it):

/**
   * 
   * @param {String} sshConfig The ssh config file to parse
   * @returns {Array} An array of hosts
   */
  parseHosts(sshConfig) {
    var ret = []
    var allHostLines = sshConfig
          .split('\n')
          .join('{{NEWLINE}}')
          .split('\r')
          .join('{{NEWLINE}}')
          .split('{{NEWLINE}}')
          .map(item => item.trim())
          .filter(item => item.indexOf('Host ') === 0)
          .map(item => item = item.split('Host ')[1]);
    allHostLines.forEach(hostLine => {
        // need to replace multiple spaces with single speces to the split doesn't have null entries
        hostLine.replace(/\s\s+/g, " ").split(" ").forEach(hostStr => {
            if (!["*","?"].some(v => hostStr.includes(v))) {
                ret.push(hostStr)
            }
        });
    });
    return ret;
  }

Hi, I tested the last pushed version and it still not working on Ubuntu 20.04 gnome 3.36.9

This is the log shown when I press the config button on the extension manager:

Hi, as the title say, the last update stopped working on 3.36.9 on Ubuntu 20.04.
I reverted to the previous version for now.

ssh-quick-connect has been working great until recently. I am on ubuntu 22.04 and up to date on system.
this is the error I get in syslog when I attempt to start a session.

any idea how to fix the problem?

Hello,

I'm experiencing a bug where the extension can't open a terminal session after clicking in one of the servers. I can see a window opening really fast and closing immediately after, in less than 1 second. I trying looking for an error in gnome-shell looking-glass but it shows no such a thing. I can try to debug further if you give me some instruction on how to do it.

Is there something I can change in the configuration for the SSH Command settings that can remediate this?

I'm using Gnome 44.4 on Manjaro with Wayland.

Thanks,

Kemel Zaidan

I just found this and it's great! The only issue I have is that I have about 100 SSH connections configured. I can only access part of that list since this is not scrollable. Unfortunately, the one's I need to use the most are not visible so I can't use this. Please make the list scrollable please!

Also, a search feature would be very helpful too! I would like to search and filter the list that way.

Hello my friend!

I don't know how much work it can turn to be, but it would be very good to have the extension working again, after updating to Gnome 45.

Many thanks for all your efforts, and for providing this good extension!

Hi,

Is this extesions going to be updated to support Gnome 43 or it isn't maintained anymore?

Thanks!

Title pretty much says everything.
I have all my Hosts configured globally in /etc/ssh/ssh_config. It would be great if those could be read in as well
