```


## Usage


## Usage Examples


### 0. Project Directory Management
You can manage project directories (create, list, delete, upload, download, rename) for Python, Ansible, Terraform, and more, from both Python and the Dashboard.

#### A. Send a Local Directory to Remote
```python
client.send_Directory('local_folder', '/remote/path/target_folder')
```

#### B. Use Directory for Terraform/Ansible
You can specify a directory for Terraform/Ansible execution via the dashboard or API:
```json
{
   "directory_name": "my_project_dir"
}
```
This will use the directory under the managed `projects/` folder for execution. You can also browse, upload, download, and rename files/folders from the Dashboard UI (Projects tab).


See the `demo/` folder for more examples.

### 1. Connect and Run Commands
```python
from remoteinfra import SSHClient

client = SSHClient(hostname='192.168.1.10', username='user', password='pass')
client.login()

# Run shell command
result = client.run_command('ls -l')
print(result)

# Run PowerShell command (on Windows target)
ps_result = client.run_powershell_command('Get-Process')
print(ps_result)

client.close()
```

### 2. File Transfer
```python
# Send a file
client.send_File('local_file.txt')
# Receive a file
client.receive_File('/remote/path/file.txt', 'downloaded.txt')
# Send a directory (recursively)
client.send_Directory('local_folder', '/remote/path/target_folder')
```

### 3. Docker Management
```python
# List containers, images, networks, volumes
print(client.docker_list_containers())
print(client.docker_list_images())
print(client.docker_list_networks())
print(client.docker_list_volumes())

# Start/Stop/Remove containers
client.docker_start_container('container_name')
client.docker_stop_container('container_name')
client.docker_remove_container('container_name')

# Remove image
client.docker_remove_image('image_name')

# Inspect container
print(client.docker_inspect_container('container_id'))

# Get container logs
print(client.docker_container_logs('container_id', tail=100))

# Run Docker Compose project
client.docker_compose_project_action('docker-compose.yml', action='up', detach=True)
```

### 4. Ansible Automation
```python
# Run playbook
client.run_ansible_playbook('test_playbook.yml', inventory_file='inventory.ini')

# Run ad-hoc command
client.run_ansible_playbook('uptime', inventory_file='inventory.ini')
```

### 5. Terraform Automation
```python
# Local execution
client.run_terraform_init(work_dir='terraform/aws')
client.run_terraform_plan(work_dir='terraform/aws', vars_dict={'instance_type': 't2.micro'})
client.run_terraform_apply(work_dir='terraform/aws', plan_file='tfplan')

# Remote execution (if SSH target has Terraform)
client.run_terraform_init(work_dir='terraform/aws', remote=True)
```

### 6. Web Dashboard


```python
from remoteinfra import Dashboard
dashboard = Dashboard(host='localhost', port=8000)
dashboard.serve()  # Starts the Flask dashboard
```

#
# Remote Terminal Access (Web-based SSH)
#

## New Feature: Browser-based SSH Terminal

remoteinfra now supports accessing remote machine terminals directly from your browser, similar to PuTTY/MobaXterm. You can use interactive editors (vi, nano, etc.) and run any shell command in a real SSH session.

### How it works
- The dashboard provides a web-based terminal using xterm.js and WebSocket.
- Connect to any configured machine and get a full interactive shell (with editor support).
- All terminal I/O is streamed live between browser and remote host.

### Usage
1. Go to the "Terminal" tab in the dashboard UI.
2. Select a machine and click "Connect".
3. Use the terminal as you would in PuTTY/MobaXterm (edit files, run commands, etc.).
4. Disconnect when done.

### Supported Features
- Full shell access (bash, sh, zsh, etc.)
- Interactive editors (vi, nano, vim, etc.)
- Real-time output and input
- Resize, clear, fullscreen terminal
- Multiple sessions (per browser tab)

### Requirements
- The remote machine must support SSH and have a shell (Linux, macOS, or Windows with OpenSSH).
- No extra software needed on the remote host.

### Troubleshooting
- If you cannot connect, check SSH credentials and network/firewall settings.
- For best experience, use a modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox).

#### Project Directory Management in Dashboard
- Create/list/delete/rename project directories from the web UI (Projects tab)
- Upload/download files and folders
- Use directories for Python, Terraform, Ansible execution

#### Docker Management in Dashboard
- View Docker info, images, containers, networks, and volumes (local & remote)
- Start/stop/remove containers, remove images, inspect containers, view logs
- Pull images, run containers, execute commands inside containers
- All Docker actions available via REST API and UI

#### Execution Management
- View all running, completed, and failed executions
- Cancel running executions from the dashboard

#### Project Directory Management in Dashboard
- Create/list/delete project directories from the web UI (Projects tab)
- Use directories for Terraform/Ansible execution
- Upload/download files and folders

#### Docker Management in Dashboard
- View Docker info, images, containers, networks, and volumes (local & remote)
- Start/stop/remove containers, remove images, inspect containers, view logs
- All Docker actions available via REST API and UI


#### 6. Docker Management (localhost)
You can manage Docker containers and images from both the Dashboard (web UI) and directly using Python code with remoteinfra methods. This is useful for DevOps, automation, and enterprise infrastructure.

**A. Using Dashboard (Web UI):**
```python
from remoteinfra import Dashboard
client = Dashboard(host='localhost', port=8000)
client.serve()
# Open http://localhost:8000 in your browser
# Go to Docker tab to manage containers/images easily
```

**B. Using Python Code ([demo/docker/docker_example.py](https://github.com/dsharathrao/remoteinfra/blob/main/demo/docker/docker_example.py)):**
```python
from remoteinfra import SSHClient

# Connect to localhost (Docker must be installed)
client = SSHClient(hostname="localhost", username="your_username", password="your_password")
client.login()

# List Docker containers
containers = client.docker_list_containers()
print("Containers:", containers)

# List Docker images
images = client.docker_list_images()
print("Images:", images)

# Start a container
result = client.docker_start_container(container_id_or_name="my_container")
print("Start container result:", result)

# Stop a container
result = client.docker_stop_container(container_id_or_name="my_container")
print("Stop container result:", result)

# Remove a container
result = client.docker_remove_container(container_id_or_name="my_container")
print("Remove container result:", result)

# Remove an image
result = client.docker_remove_image(image_id_or_name="my_image")
print("Remove image result:", result)

client.close()
```

For a full working example, see [demo/docker/docker_example.py](https://github.com/dsharathrao/remoteinfra/blob/main/demo/docker/docker_example.py).

#### 7. Run Ansible Playbook ([demo/Ansible/main.py](https://github.com/dsharathrao/remoteinfra/blob/main/demo/Ansible/main.py))
```python
client.run_ansible_playbook('test_playbook.yml', inventory_file='inventory.ini')
```

#### 8. Run Terraform ([demo/terraform/main.py](https://github.com/dsharathrao/remoteinfra/blob/main/demo/terraform/main.py))
```python
client.run_terraform_init(work_dir='terraform/aws')
client.run_terraform_plan(work_dir='terraform/aws')
client.run_terraform_apply(work_dir='terraform/aws', plan_file='tfplan')
```
