webtech-ssh

webtech-ssh is the client component of the automated webtech SSH provisioning. The server component can be found here.

Building

As usual, we use cargo for builds. We build for four targets:

• aarch64-apple-darwin (ARM macOS)

• x86_64-apple-darwin (Intel macOS)

• aarch64-unknown-linux-musl (ARM Linux)

• x86_64-unknown-linux-musl (x64 Linux)

The Linux musl builds require a few dependencies to be installed; on Arch these are:

• musl
• aarch64-linux-musl (AUR)

To build the targets appropriate for your host platform, run build.sh --release. This will build the macOS targets on macOS and the Linux targets on Linux.

In theory, we might want to cross-compile the macOS targets from Linux, but this seems to be a fairly finicky affair, and there is a Mac available for building, so this is not currently a priority.

Releases

Whenever a version tag is pushed, a Github workflow is triggered which builds the targets and makes a new release. This new release is used automatically by the webtech-ssh.sh script in webtech-admin.

Usage

Simply run webtech-ssh; it will do the rest automatically.
