Description
There is no easy way to walk through all the Host
s in a config file if it uses Include
. You have to basically detect that there is an include and manually load each config (taking wildcards into account) and walk them.
Instead, it would be nice if:
Config.Expand()
returned aConfig
with all the includes expanded, which would allowConfig.Hosts
to show all hosts.- A
Config.walk(callback Function(host Host))
was added.
My use case is I'm trying to write an ssh-completion script that returns all possible completions for use with shells and fzf.
Ideally, if it was passed a partial string (e.g. ssh-host-lister gith
) it would narrow the results down to ones that start with or contain gith
.
I have another use case, which is that openssh versions prior to 7.3 do not handle Include
. This could be used to flatten multiple configuration files (via Include) into one.
