I need to ssh into a remote machine and check if mytest.log file is
there. I have setup ssh keys to handle login authentications.
How do I determine if mytest.log is there by using Pexpect. What I
have done so far is spawned a child for ssh.
1) Now what do I do to execute shell_cmd(ls and grep), spawn another
child?
2) Can I use the same child that was spawned for ssh, if so how?
3) After executing the ls -l|grep mystest.log, how do I get the value
from pexpect?
shell_cmd = 'ls -l | grep mytest.log'
child = pexpect.spawn ('ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]')
#child.sendline(shell_cmd)
>>> child.sendline("ls")
3
>>> print child.before
:~[
>>> child.after
'[EMAIL PROTECTED] '
>>> child.sendline('/bin/bash', ['-c',shell_cmd])
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: sendline() takes at most 2 arguments (3 given)
thanks,
joe
