Overview of SSH (password-based auth)#

The SSH (password-based auth) app on Pipedream facilitates the orchestration of commands and automations on remote servers securely. With it, you can execute shell commands, manage files, and run scripts on your server as part of Pipedream workflows. This unlocks the potential for a host of automations like deploying applications, monitoring system performance, or automating backups — all triggered by events from numerous apps supported on Pipedream.

Connect SSH (password-based auth)#

module.exports = defineComponent({
  props: {
    ssh_password_based_auth: {
      type: "app",
      app: "ssh_password_based_auth",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const SSH2Promise = require('ssh2-promise')
    
    const { 
      host, 
      port,
      username, 
      password,
    } = this.ssh_password_based_auth.$auth
    
    const ssh = new SSH2Promise({
      host,
      port,
      username,
      password,
    })
    
    await ssh.connect()
    console.log("Connection established")
    
    // Replace this with the command you'd like to run
    const resp = await ssh.exec("whoami")
    console.log(resp)
    
    await ssh.close()
  },
})

Overview of GitHub#

The GitHub API is a powerful gateway to interaction with GitHub's vast web of data and services, offering a suite of endpoints to manipulate and retrieve information on repositories, pull requests, issues, and more. Harnessing this API on Pipedream, you can orchestrate automated workflows that respond to events in real-time, manage repository data, streamline collaborative processes, and connect GitHub with other services for a more integrated development lifecycle.

Connect GitHub#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    github: {
      type: "app",
      app: "github",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.github.com/user`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.github.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
        "X-GitHub-Api-Version": `2022-11-28`,
      },
    })
  },
