Overview of SSH (key-based auth)#

The SSH (Secure Shell) key-based authentication API allows you to execute commands on a remote server securely. With Pipedream, leverage this capability to automate server management tasks, execute deployment scripts, or gather data from your server infrastructure. By integrating with other apps on Pipedream, you can create seamless workflows that trigger actions on your servers in response to various events.

Connect SSH (key-based auth)#

module.exports = defineComponent({
  props: {
    ssh: {
      type: "app",
      app: "ssh",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const SSH2Promise = require('ssh2-promise')
    
    const { 
      host, 
      port,
      username, 
      privateKey,
    } = this.ssh.$auth
    
    const ssh = new SSH2Promise({
      host,
      port,
      username,
      privateKey,
    })
    
    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 Pipedream Utils#

The Pipedream Utils app is a set of pre-built functions that streamline common tasks in your workflows. It acts like a Swiss Army knife for developers, providing essential tools such as format conversion, date manipulation, and text processing. By leveraging these functions, you can reduce the boilerplate code needed for routine operations, speeding up the development of intricate automations. The Helper Functions API can be a game changer when it comes to tasks like parsing dates in user-friendly formats, encoding and decoding data, or generating UUIDs, making them more efficient and less error-prone.

Connect Pipedream Utils#

export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    pipedream_utils: {
      type: "app",
      app: "pipedream_utils",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {

  },
})
