Servedit - Update Connections in Batch

When you need to update your connections settings in batch, you can use the "webssh servedit" command line inside mashREPL.

Relatively Young Tool

This tool has been introduced in version 24 of WebSSH in order to help users to update their connections duplicated by the Unified server list for SSH and SFTP feature.
This tool is relatively young and will be improved over time. Feel free to contact me if you have any question or suggestion.

Backup Your Data

This tool is a powerful tool that can alter your data if you don't use it carefully or if a bug occurs (more likely)
It is strongly advised to backup your data before using this tool.

Usage

webssh servedit --help
webssh servedit update --help
webssh servedit delete --help

Update all connections with the only role "SSH" to have the both roles "SSH" and "SFTP" :

webssh servedit update --set-role="SSH" --set-role="SFTP" --where-roles="^SSH$"

Update connections with name containing "myserver" to have only the role "SSH" :

webssh servedit update --set-role="SSH" --where-name="myserver"

Update connections with name starting with "Awesome" to have the both roles "SSH" and "SFTP" :

webssh servedit update --set-role="SSH" --set-role="SFTP" --where-name="^Awesome"

Delete all connections with the only role "SFTP" (useful after the Unified server list for SSH and SFTP update) :

webssh servedit delete --where-roles="^SFTP$"
