Consider adding ignite exec [vm] [command]

[luxas]

It would:
a) use ssh internally
b) require a command, unlike ssh

Don't know if we want to do this or not

[BenTheElder]

This would be pretty useful for my use cases, especially if it preserved the exit code :-)

I took a quick look, this seems doable, any thoughts on why we might not want this?

[luxas]

Ok, great!
Let's add it to the v0.5.0 milestone.
Can you help out with making it happen?

[BenTheElder]

Yes, I think I can help with this!

Side note: WDYT about https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/crypto/ssh ? I'm pretty sure go has decent SSH clients that we could use to avoid manipulating the host machine's known hosts etc. EG https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/crypto/ssh#Dial

Wonderful, thank you!

Thanks for the pointer! I've never used it (yet!), but would be happy to do so. Exec'ing out to ssh was just the fastest way to implement this :)
I'll add this to #150
