With NFC tags being so cheap, been having a play.
This is a reminder of what needs to be on an NFC tag to make Connectbot open an ssh connection to a server.
It mainly comes down to remembering that you launch applictions in android via intents.
Examples of intents connectbot (an ssh client) understands are shown here
In short it looks like this:-
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="ssh" />
<data android:scheme="telnet" />
<data android:scheme="local" />
<!-- format: ssh://user@host:port/#nickname -->
<!-- format: telnet://host:port/#nickname -->
<!-- format: local:// -->
</intent-filter>ssh://username@server.somedomain.com:portnumber/#nickname
Then use something like NFC task launcher to attach and open URL action to your tag.
