How to make a ssh connection with python?

by

Notice that this doesn’t work in Windows.
The module pxssh does exactly what you want:
For example, to run ‘ls -l’ and to print the output, you need to do something like that :

from pexpect import pxssh
s = pxssh.pxssh()
if not s.login ('localhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword'):
    print "SSH session failed on login."
    print str(s)
else:
    print "SSH session login successful"
    s.sendline ('ls -l')
    s.prompt()         # match the prompt
    print s.before     # print everything before the prompt.
    s.logout()
