Show HN: Shed – Run commands over HTTPS instead of SSH (lambdas / containers)

1 points by orandaio 2 months ago · 0 comments · 1 min read

Hi HN, I needed a way to programmatically execute remote commands in a Docker container without access to the host (no Docker Exec from Codespaces). I also wanted to avoid managing SSH connections for one-off commands in my clients / lambdas. I built Shed, a small Go binary that exposes an /exec endpoint over HTTPS with bearer token auth. It accepts JSON input and produces JSON output. It's early and experimental, but I'm using it in a mobile IDE. Sharing in case others find it useful, and feedback is appreciated.
