Use the Secure Shell protocol to execute commands on a remote server using a private key
Executes a command on a remote device. See SSH lib docs here
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.
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()
},
})
The Schedule app in Pipedream is a powerful tool that allows you to trigger workflows at regular intervals, ranging from every minute to once a year. This enables the automation of repetitive tasks and the scheduling of actions to occur without manual intervention. By leveraging this API, you can execute code, run integrations, and process data on a reliable schedule, all within Pipedream's serverless environment.
