How Shuttle works

Installation

  1. Download Shuttle
  2. Copy to Applications

Customization

The default, out-of-the-box configuration should be good enough to get started. However, if you're looking to customize the appearance further, here are a few advanced tips.

Disabling ~/.ssh/config hosts

By default, Shuttle will parse your ~/.ssh/config file for hosts.

To disable all ~/.ssh/config entries:
"show_ssh_config_hosts": false,

Disable specific hosts:

"ssh_config_ignore_hosts": ["github.com", "git.example.com"],

Disable hosts that contain a keyword:

"ssh_config_ignore_keywords": ["git"],

Nested menus for ~/.ssh/config hosts

Create a menu item at "work" > "servers" > "web01"

Host work/servers/web01
	HostName user@web01.example.com

- or -

Host gandalf
	# shuttle.name = work/servers/web01 (webserver)
	HostName user@web01.example.com

Roadmap

  • Cloud hosting integration
    • AWS, Rackspace, Digital Ocean, etc
    • Using their APIs, automatically add all of your machines to the menu
  • Preferences panel for easier configuration
  • Update notifications
  • Keyboard hotkeys
    • Open menu
    • Select host option within menu

Credits

Shuttle was inspired by SSHMenu, the GNOME applet for Linux.

I also looked to projects such as MLBMenu and QuickSmileText for direction on building a Cocoa app for the status bar.
