4. File storage structure

Currently you can only store your hosts in a yaml file, which is called hosts.yaml. The file is located in your user config folder which exact path depends on a running platform:

• on Linux, it's in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/goto or $HOME/.config/goto;
• on Mac, it's in $HOME/Library/Application Support/goto;
• on Windows, it's in %AppData%\goto.

Usually you don't need to edit this file manually, but sometimes it's much more convenient to edit it into your favorite text editor, than using goto utility. The file structure is very simple and self-explanatory:

- host:
    title: kernel.org
    description: Server 1
    address: 127.0.0.1
- host:
    title: microsoft.com
    description: Server 2
    address: 127.0.0.1
    network_port: 22
    username: satya
    identity_file_path: /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa_microsoft
