sshcmd
Runs a command on a remote host (via paramiko).
Operates in two modes:
- exec_command
- Executes the command directly.
- sendall
- Executes the command via a shell. Sometimes needed when the exec_command version is not fully supported, (e.g. some Cisco devices)
Returns the output as a string.
Invocation
e.g.:
import sshcmd
cnx = sshcmd.SSHCmdExec(hostname='192.168.0.1', username='username', pkeyfile='./id_rsa', password='pkey_pass')
(stdin, stdout, stderr) = cnx.exec_command("ls -la /etc/")
print stdout.read()
cnx = sshcmd.SSHCmdSendAll(hostname='192.168.0.1', username='username', password='userpass')
cnx.send_command("terminal length 0") # Disable paging (e.g. for Cisco devices)
print cnx.send_command("ls -la /var/")Requirements
