ixlab-sshui 1.2.1

PyQt6 UI for browsing and tagging SSH configs via sshcore.

sshui

sshui is a PyQt6-based graphical frontend for the sshcore engine. It gives you a fast, tag-aware explorer for SSH configuration files, complete with host grouping, editing dialogs, and quick copy of SSH commands—without touching the command line.

What's New in 1.2.1

• Application icon — the app now ships and displays its own icon (window, dock/taskbar, and system tray).

What's New in 1.2.0

• Key content viewer — select a key in the Keys tab and click the View button on a Path row to open a read-only window with the file content and a one-click Copy to Clipboard action.
• Redesigned app icon — new 32×32 icon with transparent padding, rounded corners, and the >SSH logotype in pixel font.
• Fixed TypeError: 'type' object is not iterable on startup with newer cryptography releases.
• Fixed XPM pixels missing on image line 15 warning logged on every launch.

What's New in 1.1.0

• Key Management: A dedicated panel for viewing, adding, and deleting SSH keys.
• Terminal Execution: Connect to hosts directly within an integrated terminal window.

Features

• Flat and tag-grouped host browsers with live filtering.
• Tag editing dialog with color-coded tag definitions stored in the central sshcli.json configuration.
• Inline metadata display (tags, colors) and SSH command preview/copy.
• Context menus for editing/deleting hosts and quick navigation.
• Reuses the same settings/config sources managed by sshcli, so both tools stay in sync.

Installation

pip install ixlab-sshui

This installs sshcore and PyQt6 automatically.

Usage

Launch the UI via the console script:

sshui

or import and run the main window manually:

from sshui import main
main()

Development

1. Install dependencies for local hacking:

   pip install -e .[dev]
   

2. Run tests (UI-specific tests often rely on Qt’s offscreen plugins):

   pytest
