ssh-lite 1.1

An easy encapsulation for paramiko library which contains only common operations (ssh, sftp, expect..)

An easy encapsulation for paramiko library which contains only common operations. Version 1.1 is migrated from the original code for automatic testing / operation.

Features

• Interactive shell commands without blocking

  • send for sending a command only

  • send_and_read is the most common, for sending a command and read all returnes in a timeout period (timeout will be updated after receiving any bytes)

  • get_buff for reading all buffers from the terminal in a timeout period

• Uploading or downloading files between local and remote server

• Expect function (may raise an exception for timeout)

• Grep function and keys abbreviations

QuickStart

install

pip install ssh-lite

or update

pip install -U ssh-lite

a simple example

from ssh_lite import Server

ci = Server("127.0.0.1", "123456", "root")
ci.send_and_read("")    # waiting connection output done, avoid getting extra output before "ls -l" like "Last login: Tue ..."
print(ci.send_and_read("ls -l"))
del ci

the effect is like

ls -l
total 1736
-rw-r--r-- 1 root  root  1775417 Aug 25  2019 get-pip.py
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root  root      289 Feb 20 12:00 temp.py
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root  root      136 Nov 22 21:18 upload

another little complex example to explain the functions

from ssh_lite import Server, KeyAbbr

remote = "/docker_binding_path"
file = "test.file"

with Server("127.0.0.1", "123456", "root", port=22, key_path=None) as ci:  # type: Server  # rsa keys are supported
    ci.debug = True     # to see server inputs and outputs
    ci.get_file("/a_log_file_to_get", ".")      # getting files doesn't need destination filename
    ci.send_and_read("mkdir -p " + remote, timeout=1)
    ci.send_and_read("rm -f {}*".format(remote), timeout=1)
    ci.put_file("prepare/" + file, remote + file)      # putting files strictly need destination filename
    ci.send_and_read("", timeout=1)
    cmd = 'docker exec -i container_name curl -v "http://127.0.0.1:9990/upload?file=/reference_path/{}&uri=me"'.format(
        file)
    print("inner cmd is: {}".format(cmd))
    ci.send(cmd)
    ci.expect("< HTTP/1.1 200 OK", timeout=30)      # will raise an exception if we cannot see 200 OK response in 30 secs
    ci.send(KeyAbbr.CTRL_C, end="")      # sending a CTRL+C to exit the HTTP2 long connection
    ci.send('exit')       # exit from container to release the connection
