twisted.conch.endpoints.SSHCommandClientEndpoint : API documentation

def __init__(self, creator, command): (source)

Parameters	creator	An `_ISSHConnectionCreator` provider which will be used to set up the SSH connection which will be used to run a command. (type: `_ISSHConnectionCreator` provider)
	command	The command line to execute on the SSH server. This byte string is interpreted by a shell on the SSH server, so it may have a value like `"ls /"`. Take care when trying to run a command like `"/Volumes/My Stuff/a-program"` - spaces (and other special bytes) may require escaping. (type: `bytes`)

@classmethod
def newConnection(cls, reactor, command, username, hostname, port=None, keys=None, password=None, agentEndpoint=None, knownHosts=None, ui=None): (source)

Create and return a new endpoint which will try to create a new connection to an SSH server and run a command over it. It will also close the connection if there are problems leading up to the command being executed, after the command finishes, or if the connection Deferred is cancelled.

Parameters	reactor	The reactor to use to establish the connection. (type: `IReactorTCP` provider)
	command	See `__init__`'s `command` argument.
	username	The username with which to authenticate to the SSH server. (type: `bytes`)
	hostname	The hostname of the SSH server. (type: `bytes`)
	port	The port number of the SSH server. By default, the standard SSH port number is used. (type: `int`)
	keys	Private keys with which to authenticate to the SSH server, if key authentication is to be attempted (otherwise `None`). (type: `list` of `Key`)
	password	The password with which to authenticate to the SSH server, if password authentication is to be attempted (otherwise `None`). (type: `bytes` or `None`)
	agentEndpoint	An `IStreamClientEndpoint` provider which may be used to connect to an SSH agent, if one is to be used to help with authentication. (type: `IStreamClientEndpoint` provider)
	knownHosts	The currently known host keys, used to check the host key presented by the server we actually connect to. (type: `KnownHostsFile`)
	ui	An object for interacting with users to make decisions about whether to accept the server host keys. If `None`, a `ConsoleUI` connected to /dev/tty will be used; if /dev/tty is unavailable, an object which answers `b"no"` to all prompts will be used. (type: `None` or `ConsoleUI`)
Returns	A new instance of `cls` (probably `SSHCommandClientEndpoint`).

@classmethod
def existingConnection(cls, connection, command): (source)

Create and return a new endpoint which will try to open a new channel on an existing SSH connection and run a command over it. It will not close the connection if there is a problem executing the command or after the command finishes.

Parameters	connection	An existing connection to an SSH server. (type: `SSHConnection`)
	command	See `SSHCommandClientEndpoint.newConnection`'s `command` parameter. (type: `bytes`)
Returns	A new instance of `cls` (probably `SSHCommandClientEndpoint`).

def connect(self, protocolFactory): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IStreamClientEndpoint

Set up an SSH connection, use a channel from that connection to launch a command, and hook the stdin and stdout of that command up as a transport for a protocol created by the given factory.

Parameters	protocolFactory	A `Factory` to use to create the protocol which will be connected to the stdin and stdout of the command on the SSH server.
Returns	A `Deferred` which will fire with an error if the connection cannot be set up for any reason or with the protocol instance created by `protocolFactory` once it has been connected to the command.

def _executeCommand(self, connection, protocolFactory): (source)

Given a secured SSH connection, try to execute a command in a new channel created on it and associate the result with a protocol from the given factory.

Parameters	connection	See `SSHCommandClientEndpoint.existingConnection`'s `connection` parameter.
	protocolFactory	See `SSHCommandClientEndpoint.connect`'s `protocolFactory` parameter.
Returns	See `SSHCommandClientEndpoint.connect`'s return value.
