SSH
Available as of Camel 2.10
The SSH component enables access to SSH servers such that you can send an SSH command, and process the response.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:
| Code Block |
|---|
|
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-ssh</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

ssh:[username[:password]@]host[:port][?options]
|
Options
| Wiki Markup |
|---|
{div:class=confluenceTableSmall}
|| Name || Default Value || Description ||
| {{host}} | {{null}} | Hostname of SSH Server |
| {{port}} | {{22}} | Port of the SSH Server |
| {{username}} | {{null}} | Username used for authenticating with SSH Server. |
| {{password}} | {{null}} | Password used for authenticating with SSH Server. Used if {{keyPairProvider}} is null. |
| {{keyPairProvider}} | {{null}} | Refers to a {{org.apache.sshd.common.KeyPairProvider}} to use for loading keys for authentication. If this option is used, then {{password}} is not used. |
| {{keyType}} | ssh-rsa | Refers to a key type to load from {{keyPairProvider}}. The key types can for example be "ssh-rsa" or "ssh-dss". |
| {{certResource}} | {{null}} | *Camel 2.11:* Path reference to a public key certificate. Prefix path with {{classpath:}}, {{file:}}, or {{http:}}. |
| -{{certFilename}}- | {{null}} | *@deprecated:* Use {{certResource}} instead. Refers to a filename to use within file based {{keyPairProvider}}. |
| {{timeout}} | {{30000}} | Milliseconds to wait beforing timing out connection to SSH Server. |
{div} |
Consumer Only Options
| Wiki Markup |
|---|
{div:class=confluenceTableSmall}
|| Name || Default Value || Description ||
| {{initialDelay}} | {{1000}} | Milliseconds before polling the SSH server starts. |
| {{delay}} | {{500}} | Milliseconds before the next poll of the SSH Server. |
| {{useFixedDelay}} | {{true}} | Controls if fixed delay or fixed rate is used. See ScheduledExecutorService in JDK for details. |
| {{pollCommand}} | {{null}} | Command to send to SSH Server during each poll cycle. You may need to end your command with a newline, and that must be URL encoded {{%0A}}. |
{div} |
Usage as a Producer endpoint
When the SSH Component is used as a Producer (.to("ssh://...")), it will send the message body as the command to execute on the remote SSH server.
Here is an example of this within the XML DSL. Note that the command has an XML encoded newline ( ).
| Code Block |
|---|
|
<route id="camel-example-ssh-producer">
<from uri="direct:exampleSshProducer"/>
<setBody>
<constant>features:list </constant>
</setBody>
<to uri="ssh://karaf:karaf@localhost:8101"/>
<log message="${body}"/>
</route>
|
Authentication
The SSH Component can authenticate against the remote SSH server using one of two mechanisms: Public Key certificate or username/password. Configuring how the SSH Component does authentication is based on how and which options are set.
- First, it will look to see if the
certResource option has been set, and if so, use it to locate the referenced Public Key certificate and use that for authentication. - If
certResource is not set, it will look to see if a keyPairProvider has been set, and if so, it will use that to for certificate based authentication. - If neither
certResource nor keyPairProvider are set, it will use the username and password options for authentication.
The following route fragment shows an SSH polling consumer using a certificate from the classpath.
In the XML DSL,
| Code Block |
|---|
|
<route>
<from uri="ssh://scott@localhost:8101?certResource=classpath:test_rsa&useFixedDelay=true&delay=5000&pollCommand=features:list%0A"/>
<log message="${body}"/>
</route>
|
In the Java DSL,
| Code Block |
|---|
|
from("ssh://scott@localhost:8101?certResource=classpath:test_rsa&useFixedDelay=true&delay=5000&pollCommand=features:list%0A")
.log("${body}");
|
An example of using Public Key authentication is provided in examples/camel-example-ssh-security.
Certificate Dependencies
You will need to add some additional runtime dependencies if you use certificate based authentication. The dependency versions shown are as of Camel 2.11, you may need to use later versions depending what version of Camel you are using.
