wshterm
wshterm is a terminal emulator for the browser.
wshterm combines hterm with a backend application to provide a terminal emulator for the browser. Communication is done via websockets.
Features
- Runs most CLI and TUI programs (haven't found one that didn't work yet)
- Ability to display images using the iTerm inline image escape sequences
- Supports resizing the terminal
- Run an arbitary command on connection.
It currently does not support SSL, it is currently expected that if you need SSL, you will put it behind a reverse proxy such as NGINX.
It currently does not drop priveleges. Don't run it as root. Use the provided ssh_local script if you want to authenticate.
Usage
Simply run as the user you want to run as, and specify a command to be executed.
sudo -u nobody wshterm ./ssh_local
