sshkit v0.0.2 SSHKit.SSH

Provides convenience functions for working with SSH connections and executing commands on remote hosts.

Examples

{:ok, conn} = SSHKit.SSH.connect("eg.io", user: "me")
{:ok, output, status} = SSHKit.SSH.run(conn, "uptime")
:ok = SSHKit.SSH.close(conn)

Enum.each(output, fn
  {:stdout, data} -> IO.write(data)
  {:stderr, data} -> IO.write([IO.ANSI.red, data, IO.ANSI.reset])
end)

IO.puts("$?: #{status}")

Summary

Functions

Closes an SSH connection

Establishes a connection to an SSH server

Executes a command on the remote and aggregates incoming messages

Functions

close(connection)

Closes an SSH connection.

Uses SSHKit.SSH.Connection.close/1 to close the connection.

Example

:ok = SSHKit.SSH.close(conn)
connect(host, options \\ [])

Establishes a connection to an SSH server.

Uses SSHKit.SSH.Connection.open/2 to open a connection.

Example

{:ok, conn} = SSHKit.SSH.connect("eg.io", port: 2222, user: "me", timeout: 1000)
run(connection, command, options \\ [])

Executes a command on the remote and aggregates incoming messages.

Using the default handler, returns {:ok, output, status} or {:error, reason}. By default, command output is captured into a list of tuples of the form {:stdout, data} or {:stderr, data}.

A custom handler function can be provided to handle channel messages.

For further details on handling incoming messages, see SSHKit.SSH.Channel.loop/4.

Options

  • :timeout - maximum wait time between messages, defautls to :infinity
  • :fun - handler function passed to SSHKit.SSH.Channel.loop/4
  • :acc - initial accumulator value used in the loop

Example

{:ok, output, status} = SSHKit.SSH.run(conn, "uptime")
IO.inspect(output)
