Installation
------------

Just use `pip` to install the package:

    pip install pystassh
    
`pystassh` is working with python 3+ and pypy.

Requirements
------------

`pystassh` is using libssh to work, you will have to install the library before using
`pystassh`. Only version 0.7.3 was used during the development, but versions 0.5 and above should work fine as well with `pystassh`.
Visit [libssh's official website](https://www.libssh.org/get-it/) for more information.
`libffi-dev` is also required by the `cffi` module.

On Debian and Ubuntu:

    apt-get install libssh-4 libffi-dev
    
On Fedora:

    dnf install libssh libffi-devel

Examples
--------

Running simple commands:

```python
>>> from pystassh import Session
>>> with Session('remote_host.org', username='foo', password='baz') as ssh_session:
...     res = ssh_session.execute('whoami')
>>> res.stdout
'foo'
```
    
Handling errors:

```python
>>> from pystassh import Session
>>> with Session('remote_host.org', username='foo', password='baz') as ssh_session:
...     res = ssh_session.execute('whoam')
>>> res.stderr
'bash: whoam : command not found'
```

Running multiple commands:

```python
>>> from pystassh import Session
>>> with Session('remote_host.org', username='foo', password='baz') as ssh_session:
...     ssh_session.execute('echo "bar" > /tmp/foo')
...     res = ssh_session.execute('cat /tmp/foo')
>>> res.stdout
'bar'
```
    
Use a session without a `with` block:

```python
>>> from pystassh import Session
>>> ssh_session = Session('remote_host.org', username='foo', password='baz')
>>> ssh_session.connect()
>>> res = ssh_session.execute('whoami')
>>> res.stdout
'foo'
>>> ssh_session.disconnect()
```
