NAME¶

wayprompt-ssh-askpass - Wayland-native ssh-askpass implementation

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶

The wayprompt-ssh-askpass executable described in this manual page represents the ssh-askpass implementation based on wayprompt. For general information on wayprompt, read wayprompt(1).

USE WITH SSH¶

To use wayprompt-ssh-askpass as the askpass program for ssh(1) as well as for programs that wrap it, like git(1) or rsync(1), you need to set and export the SSH_ASKPASS env var to the path to the wayprompt-ssh-askpass executable.

By default, ssh will only use the configured askpass program if it is not attached to a terminal. To force ssh to always use the askpass program, set and export SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE=force.

RETURN VALUE¶

wayprompt-ssh-askpass will exit with one of the following commands.
