🌐 A headless login and logout CLI for gateway (10.0.0.55) at BIT, now in Rust.

Install

One-line install (Linux / macOS, recommended)

• curl -fsSL https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/spencerwooo/bitsrun-rs@main/install.sh | sh -

Ubuntu / Debian (recommended for systemd support)

• Download the latest .deb package from Releases.
• sudo apt install </path/to/file>.deb

If bitsrun.service systemd service required:

• Edit /lib/systemd/system/bitsrun.service to specify absolute config path
• Then start service with sudo systemctl start bitsrun

Cargo

• cargo install bitsrun

Download binary

• Download the latest binary from Releases.
• Uncompress file: tar -xvf <file>.tar.gz
• Move binary to $PATH, such as: mv <file>/bitsrun ~/.local/bin/

Usage

To log into or out of the campus network, simply:

$ bitsrun login -u <username> -p <password>
bitsrun: <ip> (<username>) logged in

$ bitsrun logout -u <username>
bitsrun: <ip> logged out

To check device login status:

$ bitsrun status
bitsrun: <ip> (<username>) is online
┌────────────────┬───────────────┬───────────────┬─────────┐
│ Traffic Used   │ Online Time   │ User Balance  │ Wallet  │
├────────────────┼───────────────┼───────────────┼─────────┤
│ 188.10 GiB     │ 2 months      │ 10.00         │ 0.00    │
└────────────────┴───────────────┴───────────────┴─────────┘

To keep the session alive, use bitsrun keep-alive:

$ bitsrun keep-alive
 INFO  bitsrun::daemon > starting daemon (<username>) with polling interval=3600s
 INFO  bitsrun::daemon > <ip> (<username>): login success,
 ...
 ^C INFO  bitsrun::daemon > <username>: gracefully exiting

Note

Use available system service managers to run bitsrun keep-alive as a daemon. (e.g., systemd for Linux, launchd for macOS, and Windows Service for Windows).

Config and credentials

To save your credentials and configurations, create config file bit-user.json under an available config path as:

{
  "username": "<username>",
  "password": "<password>",
  "dm": true,
  "poll_interval": 3600
}

• dm is for specifying whether the current device is a dumb terminal, and requires logging out through the alternative endpoint. Set to true (no quotes!) if the device you are working with is a dumb terminal.
• poll_interval is an optional field for specifying the interval (in seconds) of polling login requests. Default is 3600 seconds (1 hour). Used by bitsrun keep-alive only.

Available config file paths can be listed with:

$ bitsrun config-paths
bitsrun: list of possible config paths
┌──────────┬─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Priority │ Possible Config Path                                        │
├──────────┼─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ 1        │ /Users/spencerwoo/.config/bit-user.json                     │
│ 2        │ /Users/spencerwoo/.config/bitsrun/bit-user.json             │
│ 3        │ /Users/spencerwoo/Library/Preferences/bitsrun/bit-user.json │
│ 4        │ bit-user.json                                               │
└──────────┴─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Note

The config file location is OS-dependent. Run the command to check the accepted locations on your system.

Set permissions of this file to 600 on Linux and macOS, or bitsrun will refuse to read it.

$ chmod 600 <path/to/bit-user.json>
