Introduction
As a software developer, I constantly work with a bunch of virtual environments used for test. The first step I do - is switch from password ssh authorization to authorization by public key. Let me share with you handy batch, that will add all of your github keys as authorized.
Batch
USERNAME=yourgithubusername
mkdir -p ~/.ssh
if ! [[ -f ~/.ssh/authorized_keys ]]; then
echo "Creating new ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
touch ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
fi
keys=`curl https://api.github.com/users/$USERNAME/keys | grep -o -E "ssh-\w+\s+[^\"]+"`
for key in $keys; do
echo $key
grep -q "$key" ~/.ssh/authorized_keys || echo "$key" >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
done
Usage
Usually I run it as:
curl -L http://bit.ly/easytoremembershortcut | bash -s
This approach has already saved me a lot of time.
