An SSH jump server using ssh2, socket.io and express.

high-jump consists of two main parts: A ready to use server and a core library. There is also an example client.

• Library
• Server
• Example Client

You can either use the existing high-jump server or build your own by using the core library.

If you want to quickly jump into the action, the easiest way is to spin up a docker container.

docker run --name high-jump -p 8080:8022 distrentic/high-jump:latest

If you have a running high-jump server, xtermjs based example client can connect to it! However it needs a little bit of configuration.

./examples/client/index.ts

// snip

socket.on("connect", () => {
  socket.emit("shell", {
    host: "raspberrypi.local",
    port: 22,
    username: "pi",

    // you can use password authentication
    password: "raspberry",

    // or alternatively privateKey authentication with optional passphrase
    privateKey: "",
    passphrase: "",
    // ...
  });
});

// snip

When you are done with connection details, you can run the example client.

cd examples/client
yarn install && yarn build
yarn start
