20    """This class extends pexpect.spawn to specialize setting up SSH
21    connections. This adds methods for login, logout, and expecting the shell
22    prompt. It does various tricky things to handle many situations in the SSH
23    login process. For example, if the session is your first login, then pxssh
24    automatically accepts the remote certificate; or if you have public key
25    authentication setup then pxssh won't wait for the password prompt.
26
27    pxssh uses the shell prompt to synchronize output from the remote host. In
28    order to make this more robust it sets the shell prompt to something more
29    unique than just $ or #. This should work on most Borne/Bash or Csh style
30    shells.
31
32    Example that runs a few commands on a remote server and prints the result::
33
34        import pxssh
35        import getpass
36        try:
37            s = pxssh.pxssh()
38            hostname = raw_input('hostname: ')
39            username = raw_input('username: ')
40            password = getpass.getpass('password: ')
41            s.login (hostname, username, password)
42            s.sendline ('uptime')  # run a command
43            s.prompt()             # match the prompt
44            print s.before         # print everything before the prompt.
45            s.sendline ('ls -l')
46            s.prompt()
47            print s.before
48            s.sendline ('df')
49            s.prompt()
50            print s.before
51            s.logout()
52        except pxssh.ExceptionPxssh, e:
53            print "pxssh failed on login."
54            print str(e)
55
56    Note that if you have ssh-agent running while doing development with pxssh
57    then this can lead to a lot of confusion. Many X display managers (xdm,
58    gdm, kdm, etc.) will automatically start a GUI agent. You may see a GUI
59    dialog box popup asking for a password during development. You should turn
60    off any key agents during testing. The 'force_password' attribute will turn
61    off public key authentication. This will only work if the remote SSH server
62    is configured to allow password logins. Example of using 'force_password'
63    attribute::
64
65            s = pxssh.pxssh()
66            s.force_password = True
67            hostname = raw_input('hostname: ')
68            username = raw_input('username: ')
69            password = getpass.getpass('password: ')

164        more easily matched. The default 'original_prompt' is very optimistic
