Permit

Another CLI tool written in Go.
Permit stores users and their SSH pub keys to help automate the task of autorising SSH connection in servers.

Install

This tool depends, for now, in your ssh config to authenticate into servers. For AWS support you must have the aws cli installed and configured.
Rename and place the executable on $HOME/.local/bin/permit and create the folder $HOME/.local/bin/.permit_data/.
Then, add it to your path adding export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin" to your .*rc file.

Build it yourself

To build the tool yourself, run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/somedevv/permit-ssh.git
cd permit-ssh
go build -o permit main.go
