base on Your entire server infrastructure at your fingertips <p align="center"> <a href="https://xpipe.io" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> <img src="https://github.com/xpipe-io/.github/raw/main/img/banner.png" alt="XPipe Banner" /> </a> </p> <h1></h1> ## About XPipe is a new type of shell connection hub and remote file manager that allows you to access your entire server infrastructure from your local machine. It works on top of your installed command-line programs and does not require any setup on your remote systems. So if you normally use CLI tools like `ssh`, `docker`, `kubectl`, etc. to connect to your servers, you can just use XPipe on top of that. XPipe fully integrates with your tools such as your favourite text/code editors, terminals, shells, command-line tools and more. The platform is designed to be extensible, allowing anyone to add easily support for more tools or to implement custom functionality through a modular extension system. It currently supports: - [SSH](https://www.ssh.com/academy/ssh/protocol) connections, config files, and tunnels - [Docker](https://www.docker.com/), [Podman](https://podman.io/), and [LXD](https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/introduction/) container instances located on any host - [Proxmox PVE](https://www.proxmox.com/en/proxmox-virtual-environment/overview) virtual machines and containers - [Hyper-V](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/about/), [KVM/QEMU](https://linux-kvm.org/page/Main_Page), [VMware Player/Workstation/Fusion](https://www.vmware.com/products/desktop-hypervisor/workstation-and-fusion) virtual machines - [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/) clusters, pods, and containers - [Windows Subsystem for Linux](https://ubuntu.com/wsl), [Cygwin](https://www.cygwin.com/), and [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/) instances - [Powershell Remote Sessions](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/learn/remoting/running-remote-commands?view=powershell-7.3) - [Teleport tsh connections](https://goteleport.com/) - VNC connections - Any other custom remote connection methods that work through the command-line ## Connection hub - Easily connect to and access all kinds of remote connections in one place - Organize all your connections in hierarchical categories so you can keep an overview hundreds of connections - Create specific login environments on any system to instantly jump into a properly set up environment for every use case - Quickly perform various commonly used actions like starting/stopping containers, establishing tunnels, and more - Create desktop shortcuts that automatically open remote connections in your terminal without having to open any GUI  ## Powerful file management - Interact with the file system of any remote system using a workflow optimized for professionals - Quickly open a terminal session into any directory in your favourite terminal emulator - Utilize your entire arsenal of locally installed programs to open and edit remote files - Dynamically elevate sessions with sudo when required without having to restart the session - Seamlessly transfer files from and to your system desktop environment - Work and perform transfers on multiple systems at the same time with the built-in tabbed multitasking  ## Terminal launcher - Boots you into a shell session in your favourite terminal with one click.

The XPipe application does not send any personal or sensitive information to outside services. - Vault changes can be pushed and pulled from your own remote git repository by multiple team members across many systems ## Programmatic connection control via the API - The XPipe API provides programmatic access to XPipe’s features via an HTTP interface - Manage all your remote systems and access their file systems in your own favorite programming language - Either call the API directly or with the help of the [python library](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe-python-api) - Full documentation can be either found in the application itself under the API tab or in the [OpenAPI](/openapi.yaml) spec file # Downloads Note that this is a desktop application that should be run on your local desktop workstation, not on any server or containers. It will be able to connect to your server infrastructure from there. ## Windows Installers are the easiest way to get started and come with an optional automatic update functionality: - [Windows .msi Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-windows-x86_64.msi) You can also install XPipe by pasting the installation command into your terminal. This will perform the .msi setup for the current user automatically: ``` powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command iwr "https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/raw/master/get-xpipe.ps1" -OutFile "$env:TEMP\get-xpipe.ps1" ";" "&" "$env:TEMP\get-xpipe.ps1" ``` If you don't like installers, you can also use a portable version that is packaged as an archive: - [Windows .zip Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-windows-x86_64.zip) Alternatively, you can also use the following package managers: - [choco](https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/xpipe) to install it with `choco install xpipe`. - [winget](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli) to install it with `winget install xpipe-io.xpipe --source winget`. ## Linux You can install XPipe the fastest by pasting the installation command into your terminal. This will perform the setup automatically. The script supports installation via `apt`, `dnf`, `yum`, `zypper`, `rpm`, and `pacman` on Linux: ``` bash <(curl -sL https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/raw/master/get-xpipe.sh) ``` Of course, there are also other installation methods available. ### Debian-based distros The following debian installers are available: - [Linux .deb Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-x86_64.deb) - [Linux .deb Installer (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-arm64.deb) Note that you should use apt to install the package with `sudo apt install <file>` as other package managers, for example dpkg, are not able to resolve and install any dependency packages. ### RHEL-based distros The following rpm installers are available: - [Linux .rpm Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-x86_64.rpm) - [Linux .rpm Installer (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-arm64.rpm) The same applies here, you should use a package manager that supports resolving and installing required dependencies if needed. ### Arch There is an official [AUR package](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xpipe) available that you can either install manually or via an AUR helper such as with `yay -S xpipe`. ### NixOS There's an official [xpipe nixpkg](https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=unstable&show=xpipe&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=xpipe) available that you can install with `nix-env -iA nixos.xpipe`. This one is however not always up to date. There is also a custom repository that contains the latest up-to-date releases: https://github.com/xpipe-io/nixpkg. You can install XPipe by following the instructions in the linked repository. ### Portable In case you prefer to use an archive version that you can extract anywhere, you can use these: - [Linux .tar.gz Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-x86_64.tar.gz) - [Linux .tar.gz Portable (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-arm64.tar.gz) Alternatively, there are also AppImages available: - [Linux .AppImage Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-x86_64.AppImage) - [Linux .AppImage Portable (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-arm64.AppImage) Note that the portable version assumes that you have some basic packages for graphical systems already installed as it is not a perfect standalone version. It should however run on most systems. ## macOS Installers are the easiest way to get started and come with an optional automatic update functionality: - [MacOS .pkg Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-macos-x86_64.pkg) - [MacOS .pkg Installer (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-macos-arm64.pkg) You also can install XPipe by pasting the installation command into your terminal. This will perform the `.pkg` installation automatically: ``` bash <(curl -sL https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/raw/master/get-xpipe.sh) ``` If you don't like installers, you can also use a portable version that is packaged as an archive: - [MacOS .dmg Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-macos-x86_64.dmg) - [MacOS .dmg Portable (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-macos-arm64.dmg) Alternatively, you can also use [Homebrew](https://github.com/xpipe-io/homebrew-tap) to install XPipe with `brew install --cask xpipe-io/tap/xpipe`. ## Early access releases Prior to major releases, there will be several Public Test Build (PTB) releases published at https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe-ptb to see whether everything is production ready and contain the latest new features. In case you're interested in trying out the PTB versions, you can easily do so without any limitations. The regular releases and PTB releases are designed to not interfere with each other and can therefore be installed and used side by side. ## XPipe Webtop XPipe is a desktop application first and foremost. It requires a full desktop environment to function with various installed applications such as terminals, editors, shells, CLI tools, and more. So there is no true web-based interface for XPipe. Since it might make sense however to access your XPipe environment from the web, there is also a so-called webtop docker container image for XPipe. [XPipe Webtop](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe-webtop) is a web-based desktop environment that can be run in a container and accessed from a browser via KasmVNC. The desktop environment comes with XPipe and various terminals and editors preinstalled and configured. # Further information ## Open source model XPipe follows an open core model, which essentially means that the main application is open source while certain other components are not. This mainly concerns the features only available in the homelab/professional plan and the shell handling library implementation. Furthermore, some CI pipelines and tests that run on private servers are also not included in the open repository. The distributed XPipe application consists out of two parts: - The open-source core that you can find this repository. It is licensed under the [Apache License 2.0](/LICENSE.md). - The closed-source extensions, mostly for homelab/professional plan features, which are not included in this repository Additional features are available in the homelab/professional plan . For more details see https://xpipe.io/pricing. If your enterprise puts great emphasis on having access to the full source code, there are also full source-available enterprise options available. ## More links You have more questions?
