SSHTunnel
Create SSH tunnels in Elixir
Documentation for SSHTunnel is available online.
Installation
Add SSHTunnel to your mix.exs and run mix deps.get
def deps do
[
{:ssh_tunnel, "~> 0.1.3"}
]
endUsage
SSHTunnel can be used to create forwarded SSH channels, similair to channels created using :ssh_connection.
Sending messages can be done using :ssh_connection.send/3.
SSHTunnel also provide on-demand created tunnels, this is eqvivalent to using ssh -nNT -L 8080:sshserver.example.com:80 [email protected].
The tunnel process will forward messages from a TCP client to a ssh connection and back.
As channels

{:ok, ch} = SSHTunnel.direct_tcpip(pid, {"127.0.0.1", 8080}, {"sshserver.example.com", 80})

# From a local socket to a remote port
