> The Glider Labs SSH server package is dope. —[@bradfitz](https://twitter.com/bradfitz), Go team member
This Go package wraps the [crypto/ssh
package](https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/crypto/ssh) with a higher-level API for
building SSH servers. The goal of the API was to make it as simple as using
[net/http ](https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/ ), so the API is very similar:
```go
package main
import (
"github.com/gliderlabs/ssh"
"io"
"log"
)
func main() {
ssh.Handle(func(s ssh.Session) {
io.WriteString(s, "Hello world\n")
})
log.Fatal(ssh.ListenAndServe(":2222", nil))
}
```
This package was built by [@progrium ](https://twitter.com/progrium ) after working on nearly a dozen projects at Glider Labs using SSH and collaborating with [@shazow ](https://twitter.com/shazow ) (known for [ssh-chat ](https://github.com/shazow/ssh-chat )).
## Examples
A bunch of great examples are in the `_examples` directory.
## Usage
[See GoDoc reference. ](https://godoc.org/github.com/gliderlabs/ssh )
## Contributing
Pull requests are welcome! However, since this project is very much about API
design, please submit API changes as issues to discuss before submitting PRs.
Also, you can [join our Slack ](http://slack.gliderlabs.com ) to discuss as well.
## Roadmap
* Non-session channel handlers
* Cleanup callback API
* 1.0 release
* High-level client?
