termishare

Peer to peer terminal sharing

ezgif com-gif-maker-2

The motivation behind termishare is to provide a safe and fast way to access a remote terminal.

In order to achieve that, termishare uses a combination of WebSocket and WebRTC:

WebSocket - is used only for signaling - which is a process to establish WebRTC connection
WebRTC - the primary connection to stream your terminal to other clients

brew tap qnkhuat/tap && brew install termishare

Go to our release page and get a pre-built binary of termishare. Make sure you get the one that match your OS.
Untar the package tar -xzf termishare_x.y.z.tar.gz
(Optional) Move it to /usr/local/bin folder so that you could use termishare anywhere : mv termishare /usr/local/bin

To start a sharing session, just run termisnare
Termishare will echo out a connection url you can use to connect via:
- browser
- terminal with command :termishare {{connection_url}}

There are chances where a direct peer-to-peer connection can't be established, so I included a TURN server that I created using CoTURN.

If relay to the TURN server is something you don't want, you can:

Disable the usage of turn server (with -no-turn flag)
Creates your own TURN server connect to it by changing in cfg/termishare.go then re-compile termishare (sorry)

Termishare server is a jar file, it contains both the signaling server and the UI, so it's fairlly simple to self-host termishare:

Install java
Download termishare.jar from our release page
Start it with java -jar termishare.jar, by default it'll start at localhost:3000. You can use TERMISHARE_HOST and TERMISHARE_PORT env to change the default values.
Now you can connect to your server using termishare with termishare -server localhost:3000
