NAME¶
guake-indicator — A simple Guake indicator that lets you ssh into
your favourite hosts.
SYNOPSIS¶
guake-indicator
DESCRIPTION¶
guake-indicator lets you manage your favorite ssh hosts establishing a
new ssh connection with Guake dropdown terminal.
guake-indicator sticks to your "System Tray" and displays your
favorites ssh hosts retrieved from the Guake indicator configuration file (see
FILES section for more details)
FILES¶
guake-indicator builds the menu according to
~/.guake.indicator/guake-indicator.json json file
If this configuration file does not exist a default one will be created.
You can customize this file according to your needs with your favorite text
editor, just use this schema as a base to add new entries. The fields are
self-explanatory, however, I'm going to give you a more in-depth description
of each one:
- hostname
- The host to connect (it can be his IP address or his DNS), leave it blank
to execute commands directly on localhost
- login
- The ssh user
- menu_name
- The name that will show up in the indicator itself
- tab_name
- The name of the guake terminal tab once it is opened
- command_after_login
- Command to issue after the ssh login is successfully performed - this
field is optional
- remote_command
- If set to yes, after that "command_after_login" is executed, the
bash shell won't be invoked so an automatic exit is performed.
- x_forwarded
- If set to yes it adds the X flag. This tells SSH to forward the X server
calls to the client computer
