This is a command build just for learn a bit of golang that depends on openconnect and any post script you want to execute it before.
Bear in mind that this is a first language project just to play a bit with golang and cobra for the cli. Generating more than 4MB binary for something that you would do it with a simple bash script is too much, by the way it works!
On the other hand, thanks to CodelyTV and friendsofgo for introducing me to golang.
- Openconnect. This is a simple wrapper to use openconnect, so you might have installed it as well as any additional dependency to connect your VPN
- In addition, you could install vpn-slice and use it as part of your setup with the post script information
VPN_POST_SCRIPT
- Download the release binary
- Make it executable:
chmod +x vpn - Copy it to the place you want to use it (f.i.
/usr/local/bin) - Execute it with:
vpn connect -h
And follow the instructions:
> vpn connect -h
Helper to connect to a VPN through openconnect.
Note that this is able to read `.env` files (by default in `/home/$USER/.vpn`)
Usage:
vpn-cli connect [flags]
Flags:
-a, --flags string additional flags for openconnect - VPN_ADDITIONAL_FLAGS at .env
-h, --help help for connect
-v, --host string host to use for the vpn - VPN_HOST at .env
-p, --password string static password - VPN_STATIC_PASSWORD at .env
-s, --script string script to execute - VPN_POST_SCRIPT at .env
-t, --token string dynamic token key
-u, --user string user to use - VPN_USER at .env
If you want to save part of the configuration, just get the .env.dist file, edit it and save it at /home/$USER/.vpn
