SSH button

David Grootendorst

About this app

With the SSH button application you can send ssh commands to linux hosts via a button on your android device.
Simply create a new button and add the command you want to sent to the linux device.

You can specify per button:
- Label ( e.g. reboot raspberry or start application )
- Command to sent ( e.g. sudo reboot or sudo service httpd restart)
- ip adres or hostname
- username
- password
- Private key ( optional )
- ssh port

Keep in mind that you only use Linux/Unix commands that return immediately!!

Ratings and reviews

I expected the command result to be displayed on my phone, but it only displays OK (time). Maybe it's because of the "Permission denied to local storage" notification when starting this app? But it should give you the option to grant such permission. The command I run is: "tail -50 /storage/folder/*". On my old phone I used the Remote Executer app which returned the result of this command, but unfortunately it is no longer being developed and I can't install it on my new phone.

Excellent app. I use this to manage my Ark game server and so my friend can turn it on and off as required. Would be nice if there was a way to return a short simple message back to the app to be used to check and verify service status for example. e.g. "Service is stopped" or "Service is running" etc. Also perhaps a button clone feature would be good. Otherwise great app. Highly recommended.

Seems like exactly what I need to send 1 click commands from a widget but sadly the it still says Permission denied to local storage event when I manually try and add the permissions. Don't really have much use for it if I can't use private keys.
