> Terminal access in browser over http/https
Terminal over HTTP and https. WeTTy is an alternative to ajaxterm and anyterm
but much better than them because WeTTy uses xterm.js which is a full fledged
implementation of terminal emulation written entirely in JavaScript. WeTTy uses
websockets rather then Ajax and hence better response time.
## Prerequisites
- node >=6.9
- make
- python
- build-essential
## Install
```sh
yarn global add wetty
```
## Usage
```sh
wetty [-h] [--port PORT] [--base BASE] [--sshhost SSH_HOST] [--sshport SSH_PORT] [--sshuser SSH_USER] [--host HOST] [--command COMMAND] [--bypasshelmet] [--title TITLE] [--sslkey SSL_KEY_PATH] [--sslcert SSL_CERT_PATH]
```
Open your browser on `http://yourserver:3000/wetty` and you will prompted to
login. Or go to `http://yourserver:3000/wetty/ssh/<username>` to specify the
user before hand.
If you run it as root it will launch `/bin/login` (where you can specify the
user name), else it will launch `ssh` and connect by default to `localhost`.
If instead you wish to connect to a remote host you can specify the `--sshhost`
option, the SSH port using the `--sshport` option and the SSH user using the
`--sshuser` option.
