Installation

SSH deploy key is installed from the command line with pip.

On some systems, there are development packages that must be installed first.

Prerequisites

ssh-deploy-key depends on the excellent Paramiko ssh library, which requires the Python sources. You can install these using the normal package managers for your OS.

Debian/Ubuntu (apt-get)

sudo apt-get install python-dev

Red Hat/Centos (yum)

sudo yum install python-devel

OS X

You will need a compiler installed – either XCode or gcc. Normally, you can just run the pip command to install ssh-deploy-key (see below), and if no compiler is available on your system, you will be prompted to install one:

If this happens, click the ‘install’ button, then run the pip command again.

Once the development libraries are in place, the best way to install ssh-deploy-key is via pip. To get pip, see http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/installing.html
