This process lets you efficiently manage multiple servers and their credentials, providing quick access through Oysape's easy-to-use interface. The ability to save and reuse credentials, along with options to add tags and startup tasks, makes it a powerful tool for server management and DevOps workflows.
- The main Oysape interface lists existing servers on the left sidebar. To add a new server, click the "…" icon and choose "Add a new server" in the dropdown menu.
- This opens a "New Server" tab in the main workspace area. Here, you'll need to fill in the following details:
- Server Name: Enter a unique name for your server
- Hostname: Provide the IP address or domain name which could be defined in your hosts file
- Port: Default is set to 22 (standard SSH port)
- Tags: Add relevant tags to categorize your server (e.g., "aws" for Amazon Web Services)
Please note that login credentials are managed separately in [My Credentials] and are not stored within the server settings. Credentials are specific to your device and are never uploaded or stored outside of it.
After filling in the required information, you can click "Save" to create the server, or "Run it" to immediately run a task on the server.
Once saved, the new server will appear on the left sidebar with its assigned tags.
To manage credentials for the new server, click on the "Credential" option when hovering over the server name.
This opens a "Choose Credential" dialogue where you can add, remove, or select existing credentials for the server. The dialogue shows a list of available credentials, their types (e.g., Private Key), and options to choose, edit, or delete each credential.
- After setting up the credentials, you can connect to the server. Here are a few options:
- Enter @ in the quick search bar, choose the server
- Use the quick access toolbar at the bottom of the server item, which includes options for Run Task, Terminal, Edit, Delete, and other tools
