SSH Key Widget

An ssh key widget. Add new keys or list and delete existing keys.

Example

var sshWidget = require('ssh-key-widget');
var sshWidget = sshWidget();
sshWidget.appendTo('#widget');
 
sshWidget.on('newKey', function (key) {
  console.log('user submitted a new key: ' + key);
  sshWidget.emit('addKeyToList', key);
});

In this example when a user submits a new key, the widget emits newKey event. We just log this to console and emit it back to ssh widget via addKeyToList event so it was added to the list of existing keys. Similarly by using addKeyToList you can submit all other user keys to the list.

Todo: deleting keys.

Methods

var sshWidget = sshWidget()

Return a new ssh widget instance.

keyboard.appendTo(target)

Append the ssh widget to the dom element or query selector string target.

Events

keyboard.on('newKey', function (key) { })

Ssh widget emits the newKey events when you add a new key. The callback receives key parameter which is the key the user pasted in the textarea.

keyboard.emit('addKeyToList', key);

Ssh widget listens for addKeyToList events so you can update the list of all the user's ssh keys.

Todo: deleting keys.

Install

With npm do:

npm install ssh-key-widget

Use browserify to require('ssh-key-widget').
