## SSH metro server

The SSH metro application is an application that allows initiating SSH tunnels dynamically on a remote/server machine and automatically connecting to them.

SSH metro server is the server side application that servers requests from the clients and initiate the required tunnels for the clients to connect on.

• Flask: HTTP server implementation to handle requests from clients

• Pexpect: To handle operating system level commands to start the SSH tunnels

### Installation

` $> pip install ssh-metro-server `

or

` $> pipenv install ssh-metro-server `
