Quick Start


See command execution script <https://github.com/ParallelSSH/ssh-python/blob/master/examples/exec.py>_ for complete example.

Features


The library uses Cython_ based native code extensions as wrappers to libssh.

  • Thread safe - GIL released as much as possible

    • libssh threading limitations apply - anything not supported in C is not supported in Python
  • Very low overhead thin wrapper

  • Object oriented

    • Memory freed automatically and safely as objects are garbage collected by Python
  • Uses Python semantics where applicable

    • channel/file handle context manager support
    • channel/file handle iterator support
  • Raises low level C errors as Python exceptions
