sssh is a Bash script designed to streamline the process of using ecs-exec to execute commands in Amazon ECS Fargate containers. It provides an interactive experience for selecting ECS profiles, clusters, services, containers, and tasks to run shell commands or port forwarding.
This is an actively maintained fork of the original sssh project. Contributions and feedback are welcome!
Note: Ensure that your AWS CLI session profile is set to output in JSON format before running the script. This is crucial as the script may not function correctly otherwise. You can set the output format to JSON by executing aws configure sso.
To install sssh, clone the repository and run the script as follows:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/sssh.git
cd sssh

# AWS profile, cluster, service, container, and task.

# selected container. You'll need to provide the remote host's address, the
# remote port, and a local port to forward to.
