[FEATURE]: Rework SSH Credentials #593

@404invalid-user

Description

@404invalid-user

Title

allow user to provide ssh key and ssh password when setting up credentials, then add snippet to auto fill password when clicked

Platform

N/A

Is it related to an issue?

There are many scenarios where you may want to enter your account password during a session this includes sudo but isn't limited to sudo eg another command may be su this also streamlines logging in. e.g. you have a server you haven't setup a ssh key on yet, instead of having to add the host with password, login, add ssh key, logout, update host from password to ssh key you can add ssh key and password then termix will detect login methods and if ssh key isn't an option it will use password (with a warning?)

The Solution

first remove "Sudo Password Auto-Fill" option under host > ssh > terminal settings
remove the SSH Key/password toggle under add credential > authentication and have it so its just one page where you add password and/or ssh key details

under tools tab > SSH Tools ( or snippets) have a button (Fill password) optionally also have a dialog box that shows up up when ttl receives Password:

Additional Context

i also think this new feature would be helpful in instances where server sharing is setup where the servers details are hidden from the user where they have to use termix to access and that access can easily be removed.
