The goal of the API was to make it as simple as using [net/http](https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/), so the API is very similar: ```go package main import ( "github.com/gliderlabs/ssh" "io" "log" ) func main() { ssh.Handle(func(s ssh.Session) { io.WriteString(s, "Hello world\n") }) log.Fatal(ssh.ListenAndServe(":2222", nil)) } ``` This package was built by [@progrium](https://twitter.com/progrium) after working on nearly a dozen projects at Glider Labs using SSH and collaborating with [@shazow](https://twitter.com/shazow) (known for [ssh-chat](https://github.com/shazow/ssh-chat)). ## Examples A bunch of great examples are in the `_examples` directory. ## Usage [See GoDoc reference.](https://godoc.org/github.com/gliderlabs/ssh) ## Contributing Pull requests are welcome! However, since this project is very much about API design, please submit API changes as issues to discuss before submitting PRs. Also, you can [join our Slack](http://slack.gliderlabs.com) to discuss as well. ## Roadmap * Non-session channel handlers * Cleanup callback API * 1.0 release * High-level client? ## Sponsors Become a sponsor and get your logo on our README on Github with a link to your site.
