We just pushed out version 0.0.5 of our Strongspace Ruby Gem and command line utility – this adds the ability to upload, download, mkdir and delete files and folders from the command line. Since it is all in Ruby it works great on Mac, Windows, Linux and Solaris or wherever else you’ve got Ruby.

To install or update run sudo gem install strongspace

The updated command set:

$ strongspace help
=== General Commands
help                                              # show this usage

mkdir <remote_path>                               # create a folder on Strongspace

keys                                              # show your user's public keys
keys:add [<path to keyfile>]                      # add a public key
keys:remove <id>                                  # remove a key by id
keys:clear                                        # remove all keys

spaces                                            # show your user's spaces
spaces:create <space_name> [type]                 # add a new space. type => (normal,public,backup)
spaces:delete <space_name> [type]                 # remove a space by and destroy its data
spaces:snapshots <space_name>                     # show a space's snapshots
spaces:create_snapshot <space_name@snapshot_name> # take a space of a space.
spaces:delete_snapshot <space_name@snapshot_name> # remove a snapshot from a space

Here is the API for listing, creating and removing SSH Keys. Successful API calls return HTTP status codes in the 200s and errors have codes 400 and higher. This will be documented more fully in the future when we’ve settled on all the error codes across a wider array of functions.

The prettyjson command is optional, just for readability.

List your SSH Keys

GET /api/v1/ssh_keys

Example:

curl -u hemancuso/token:***** https://www.strongspace.com/api/v1/ssh_keys | prettyjson
{
    "ssh_keys": [
        {
            "name": "jmancuso@mactop.local", 
            "key": "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIw......Az4GLQHoVcyw== jmancuso@mactop.local", 
            "id": 1
        }, 
        {
            "name": "jmancuso@blog.expandrive.com", 
            "key": "ssh-dss AAAAB3NzaC...ovUGhwtD41cHgxEzBeVvjkcN4= root@db1.expandrive.com", 
            "id": 2
        }
    ]
}

Add SSH key

POST /api/v1/ssh_keys
      :key
      :name [optional - key nickname]

Example:

curl -u hemancuso/token:***** -F 'key=ssh-dss AAAAB3NzaC1kc3MAAACBAL....HgxEzBeVvjkcN4= jmancuso@blog.expandrive.com' https://www.strongspace.com/api/v1/ssh_keys
{"status": "ok"}

If the key already exits, it returns an error code and the body:

{"status":"duplicate key"}

Delete SSH key

DELETE /api/v1/ssh_keys/:id

Example:

 curl -X DELETE -u hemancuso/token:*****  https://www.strongspace.com/api/v1/ssh_keys/2
 {"status": "ok"}

If the key doesn’t exist or user doesn’t have access:

{"status": "permission denied"}
