SshDomain

The SshDomain struct specifies information about an individual SSH Domain.

It is a lua object with the following fields:

{
    -- The name of this specific domain.  Must be unique amongst
    -- all types of domain in the configuration file.
    name = "my.server",

    -- identifies the host:port pair of the remote server
    -- Can be a DNS name or an IP address with an optional
    -- ":port" on the end.
    remote_address = "192.168.1.1",

    -- Whether agent auth should be disabled.
    -- Set to true to disable it.
    -- no_agent_auth = false,

    -- The username to use for authenticating with the remote host
    username = "yourusername",

    -- If true, connect to this domain automatically at startup
    -- connect_automatically = true,

    -- Specify an alternative read timeout
    -- timeout = 60,

    -- The path to the wezterm binary on the remote host.
    -- Primarily useful if it isn't installed in the $PATH
    -- that is configure for ssh.
    -- remote_wezterm_path = "/home/yourusername/bin/wezterm"
}

You may now specify a table with ssh config overrides:

return {
  ssh_domains = {
    {
      name = "my.server",
      remote_address = "192.168.1.1",
      ssh_option = {
        identityfile = "/path/to/id_rsa.pub",
      }
    }
  }
}

You may now specify the type of multiplexing used by an ssh domain. The following values are possible:

  • "WezTerm" - this is the default; use wezterm's multiplexing client. Having wezterm installed on the server is required to use this mode.
  • "None" - don't use any multiplexing. The connection is an ssh connection using the same mechanism as is used by wezterm ssh; losing connectivity will lose any panes/tabs. This mode of operation is convenient when using SSH to connect automatically into eg: a locally hosted WSL instance, together with the default_domain option.

A new assume_shell option, when coupled with multiplexing = "None", allows wezterm to assume that the remote host uses a specific shell command language dialect, which in turn allows wezterm to respect the current working directory as set by OSC 7 / Shell Integration on the remote host when spawning new panes and tabs. The following values are recognized for assume_shell:

  • "Unknown" - this is the default. We can't make any assumptions about the remote shell.
  • "Posix" - the remote host uses a POSIX/Bourne Shell compatible environment that allows the syntax env -c DIR ENV1=VAL1 ENV2=VAL2 CMD and env -c DIR ENV1=VAL1 ENV2=VAL2 $SHELL.
return {
  ssh_domains = {
    {
      name = "my.server",
      remote_address = "192.168.1.1",
      multiplexing = "None",

      -- When multiplexing == "None", default_prog can be used
      -- to specify the default program to run in new tabs/panes.
      -- Due to the way that ssh works, you cannot specify default_cwd,
      -- but you could instead change your default_prog to put you
      -- in a specific directory.
      default_prog = {"fish"},

      -- assume that we can use syntax like:
      -- "env -C /some/where $SHELL"
      -- using whatever the default command shell is on this
      -- remote host, so that shell integration will respect
      -- the current directory on the remote host.
      assume_shell = "Posix",
    }
  },

  default_domain = "my.server",
}

You may now specify the round-trip latency threshold for enabling predictive local echo using local_echo_threshold_ms. If the measured round-trip latency between the wezterm client and the server exceeds the specified threshold, the client will attempt to predict the server's response to key events and echo the result of that prediction locally without waiting, hence hiding latency to the user. This option only applies when multiplexing = "WezTerm".

return {
  ssh_domains = {
    {
      name = "my.server",
      remote_address = "192.168.1.1",
      local_echo_threshold_ms = 10,
    }
  },
}
