Ops is a terminal UI application for managing on-premise bare-metal servers and VMs. It allows you see servers currently on your network and quickly ssh to them. Within the UI, you can create and manage multiple network configurations, you can choose a default set of ssh credentials to use for all servers, and you can override those defaults for individual IPs where needed.
This project is heavily inspired by derailed's amazing work on k9s for managing kubernetes clusters via a terminal ui application.
Ops has some external runtime dependencies: libpcap.
- mac
brew install libpcap- debian
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y libpcap-devIf building Ops from source you will need a few other build dependencies.
- mac
brew install make go git- debian
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y make golang gitWhen installing using golang or building from source, you may want to add the
following lines to one of your rc files to add your user's go bin to the
PATH variable. This will make the ops command available in your shell.
export GOPATH="$HOME/go"
PATH="${GOPATH}/bin:$PATH"- install using golang
