Net::SSH 7.x

Docs: http://net-ssh.github.io/net-ssh
Issues: https://github.com/net-ssh/net-ssh/issues
Codes: https://github.com/net-ssh/net-ssh
Email: net-ssh@solutious.com

As of v2.6.4, all gem releases are signed. See INSTALL.

DESCRIPTION:

Net::SSH is a pure-Ruby implementation of the SSH2 client protocol.
It allows you to write programs that invoke and interact with processes on remote servers, via SSH2.

FEATURES:

Execute processes on remote servers and capture their output
Run multiple processes in parallel over a single SSH connection
Support for SSH subsystems
Forward local and remote ports via an SSH connection

Supported Algorithms

Net::SSH 6.0 disables by default the usage of weak algorithms.
We strongly recommend that you install a servers's version that supports the latest algorithms.

It is possible to return to the previous behavior by adding the option : append_all_supported_algorithms: true

Unsecure algoritms will definitely be removed in Net::SSH 8.*.

SYNOPSIS:

In a nutshell:

require 'net/ssh'

Net::SSH.start('host', 'user', password: "password") do |ssh|

# capture all stderr and stdout output from a remote process
output = ssh.exec!("hostname")
puts output

# capture only stdout matching a particular pattern
stdout = ""
ssh.exec!("ls -l /home/jamis") do |channel, stream, data|
  stdout << data if stream == :stdout && /foo/.match(data)
end
puts stdout

# run multiple processes in parallel to completion
ssh.exec "sed ..."
ssh.exec "awk ..."
ssh.exec "rm -rf ..."
ssh.loop

# open a new channel and configure a minimal set of callbacks, then run
# the event loop until the channel finishes (closes)
channel = ssh.open_channel do |ch|
  ch.exec "/usr/local/bin/ruby /path/to/file.rb" do |ch, success|
    raise "could not execute command" unless success

    # "on_data" is called when the process writes something to stdout
    ch.on_data do |c, data|
      $stdout.print data
    end

    # "on_extended_data" is called when the process writes something to stderr
    ch.on_extended_data do |c, type, data|
      $stderr.print data
    end

    ch.on_close { puts "done!" }
  end
end

channel.wait

# forward connections on local port 1234 to port 80 of www.capify.org
ssh.forward.local(1234, "www.capify.org", 80)
ssh.loop { true }
end

See Net::SSH for more documentation, and links to further information.

REQUIREMENTS:

Net::SSH requires Ruby 2.7 or newer and the Ruby openssl gem version 3.2.0 or newer.
The openssl gem uses the OpenSSL library Ruby is built against. You can verify the loaded gem and library with:

ruby -ropenssl -e 'puts OpenSSL::VERSION; puts OpenSSL::OPENSSL_VERSION'

If openssl cannot be required, rebuild Ruby with OpenSSL support or install the Ruby openssl gem separately.

Ed25519, curve25519-sha256, and chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com support also require an OpenSSL backend with Ed25519, X25519, ChaCha20, and Poly1305 enabled.

INSTALL:

gem install net-ssh # might need sudo privileges

NOTE: If you are running on jruby on windows you need to install jruby-pageant manually
(gemspec doesn't allow for platform specific dependencies at gem installation time).

However, in order to be sure the code you're installing hasn't been tampered with,
it's recommended that you verify the signature.
To do this, you need to add my public key as a trusted certificate (you only need to do this once):

# Add the public key as a trusted certificate
# (You only need to do this once)
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/net-ssh/net-ssh/master/net-ssh-public_cert.pem
gem cert --add net-ssh-public_cert.pem

Then, when install the gem, do so with high security:

gem install net-ssh -P HighSecurity

If you don't add the public key, you'll see an error like "Couldn't verify data signature".
If you're still having trouble let me know and I'll give you a hand.

Ed25519 public key auth is backed by Ruby OpenSSL. The bcrypt_pbkdf gem is only needed when loading bcrypt-encrypted OpenSSH private keys.

gem install bcrypt_pbkdf

RUBY SUPPORT

See net-ssh.gemspec for current versions ruby requirements

RUNNING TESTS

If you want to run the tests or use any of the Rake tasks, you'll need Mocha and
other dependencies listed in Gemfile

Run the test suite from the net-ssh directory with the following command:

bundle exec rake test

NOTE : you can run test on all ruby versions with docker :

docker-compose up --build

Run a single test file like this:

ruby -Ilib -Itest test/transport/test_server_version.rb

To run integration tests see here

BUILDING GEM

rake build

GEM SIGNING (for maintainers)

If you have the net-ssh private signing key, you will be able to create signed release builds. Make sure the private key path matches the signing_key path set in net-ssh.gemspec and tell rake to sign the gem by setting the NET_SSH_BUILDGEM_SIGNED flag:

NET_SSH_BUILDGEM_SIGNED=true rake build

For time to time, the public certificate associated to the private key needs to be renewed. You can do this with the following command:

gem cert --build netssh@solutious.com --private-key path/2/net-ssh-private_key.pem
mv gem-public_cert.pem net-ssh-public_cert.pem
gem cert --add net-ssh-public_cert.pem

or rake cert:update_public_when_expired
