Create iTerm2 dynamic profile from SSH config

Converts your ~/.ssh/config to Dynamic profiles in iTerm2.

By default it looks up your Host definitions in ~/.ssh/config.

You can supply another location via the environment variable SSH2ITERM2_GLOB.

I.e. set SSH2ITERM2_GLOB=~/.ssh/config.d/*.conf to run through all *.conf files in ~/.ssh/config.d and SSH2ITERM2_GLOB=~/.ssh/**/*.conf will run through all *.conf files in all folders under ~/.ssh.

The glob pattern should follow Gos path/filepath patterns.

The generated dynamic profile

The generated dynamic profile has some features/caveats (they suit me well :-)

• The command is not a direct call to ssh. That is because iTerm2 doesn't have /usr/local/bin in its path. Instead we wrap it in a call to sh:

  sh -c 'PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH ssh <host>'
  

• We add the host as a badge

• If the the filename where the Host is defined is not config we use the filename as a tag on the profile (extension removed from file, preprending digits followed by underscore removed).

  This way you can group your Hosts.

  I.e. all Hosts defined in 20_production.conf will get a "production" tag.

• A trigger that opens iTerm2s password manager is added on the regular expression \\[sudo\\] password for.

  The password manager will get the host name as parameter.
