It supports the SSH2 protocol (there is no support for SSH1) with all of the key exchanges, ciphers, and compression of libssh2. Even if the module can be compiled and linked against very old versions of the library, nothing below 1.5.0 should really be used (older versions were quite buggy and unreliable) and version 1.7.0 or later is recommended. =head2 Error handling Unless otherwise indicated, methods return a true value on success and C on failure; use the L method to get extended error information. B: methods in Net::SSH2 not backed by libssh2 functions (i.e. L or L related methods) require libssh2 1.7.0 or later in order to set the error state. That means that after any of those methods fails, L would not return the real code but just some bogus result when an older version of the library is used. =head2 Typical usage The typical usage order is as follows: =over 4 =item 1 Create the SSH2 object calling L. =item 2 Configure the session if required. For instance, enabling compression or picking some specific encryption methods. =item 3 Establish the SSH connection calling the method L. =item 4 Check the remote host public key calling L. =item 5 Authenticate calling the required L. =item 6 Call L and related methods to create new bidirectional communication channels over the SSH connection. =item 7 Close the connection letting the Net::SSH2 object go out of scope or calling L explicitly. =back =head1 CONSTANTS All the constants defined in libssh2 can be imported from Net::SSH2. For instance: use Net::SSH2 qw(LIBSSH2_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA_MERGE LIBSSH2_CHANNEL_FLUSH_ALL LIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_POLICY_ASK); Though note that most methods accept the uncommon part of the constant name as a string. For instance the following two method calls are equivalent: $channel->ext_data(LIBSSH2_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA_MERGE); $channel->ext_data('merge'); Tags can be used to import the following constant subsets: callback channel error socket trace hash method disconnect policy fx fxf sftp The tag C can also be used to import all of them. =head1 METHODS =head2 new ( %options ) Create new Net::SSH2 object representing a SSH session. The accepted options are as follows: =over 4 =item timeout Sets the default timeout in milliseconds. See L. =item trace Sets tracing. See L. Example: my $ssh2 = Net::SSH2->new(trace => -1); Note that tracing requires a version of libssh2 compiled with debugging support. =item debug Enable debugging. See L. =item compress Sets flag C. See L. =item sigpipe Sets flag C. See L. =back =head2 banner ( text ) Set the SSH2 banner text sent to the remote host (prepends required "SSH-2.0-"). =head2 version In scalar context, returns libssh2 version/patch e.g. 0.18 or "0.18.0-20071110". In list context, returns that version plus the numeric version (major, minor, and patch, each encoded as 8 bits, e.g. 0x001200 for version 0.18) and the default banner text (e.g. "SSH-2.0-libssh2_0.18.0-20071110"). =head2 error Returns the last error code. In list context, returns (code, error name, error string). Note that the returned error value is only meaningful after some other method indicates an error by returning false. =head2 die_with_error ( [message] ) Calls C with the given message and the error information from the object appended. For instance: $ssh2->connect("ajhkfhdklfjhklsjhd", 22) or $ssh2->die_with_error; # dies as: # Unable to connect to remote host: Invalid argument (-1 LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_NONE) =head2 sock Returns a reference to the underlying L object (usually a derived class as L or L), or C if not yet connected. =head2 trace Calls C with supplied bitmask. In order to enable all tracing pass C<-1> as follows: $ssh2->trace(-1); A version of libssh2 compiled with tracing support is required. =head2 timeout ( timeout_ms ) Enables a global timeout (in milliseconds) which will affect every action (requires libssh2 1.2.9 or later). By default, or if you set the timeout to zero, Net::SSH2 has no timeout. Note that timeout errors may leave the SSH connection in an inconsistent state and further operations may fail or behave incorrectly. Actually, some methods are able to recover after a timeout error and others are not. I =head2 method ( type [, values... ] ) Sets or gets a method preference. For get, pass in the type only; to set, pass in either a list of values or a comma-separated string. Values can only be queried after the session is connected. The following methods can be set or queried: =over 4 =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_KEX Key exchange method names. Supported values: =over 4 =item diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 Diffie-Hellman key exchange with SHA-1 as hash, and Oakley Group 2 (see RFC 2409). =item diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 Diffie-Hellman key exchange with SHA-1 as hash, and Oakley Group 14 (see RFC 3526). =item diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 Diffie-Hellman key exchange with SHA-1 as hash, using a safe-prime/generator pair (chosen by server) of arbitrary strength (specified by client) (see IETF draft secsh-dh-group-exchange). =back =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_HOSTKEY Public key algorithms. Supported values: =over 4 =item ssh-dss Based on the Digital Signature Standard (FIPS-186-2). =item ssh-rsa Based on PKCS#1 (RFC 3447). =back =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_CRYPT_CS Encryption algorithm from client to server. Supported algorithms: =over 4 =item aes256-cbc AES in CBC mode, with 256-bit key. =item rijndael-cbc@lysator.liu.se Alias for aes256-cbc. =item aes192-cbc AES in CBC mode, with 192-bit key. =item aes128-cbc AES in CBC mode, with 128-bit key. =item blowfish-cbc Blowfish in CBC mode. =item arcfour ARCFOUR stream cipher. =item cast128-cbc CAST-128 in CBC mode. =item 3des-cbc Three-key 3DES in CBC mode. =item none No encryption. =back =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_CRYPT_SC Encryption algorithm from server to client. See the C entry above for supported algorithms. =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_MAC_CS Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms from client to server. Supported values: =over 4 =item hmac-sha1 SHA-1 with 20-byte digest and key length. =item hmac-sha1-96 SHA-1 with 20-byte key length and 12-byte digest length. =item hmac-md5 MD5 with 16-byte digest and key length. =item hmac-md5-96 MD5 with 16-byte key length and 12-byte digest length. =item hmac-ripemd160 RIPEMD-160 algorithm with 20-byte digest length. =item hmac-ripemd160@openssh.com Alias for hmac-ripemd160. =item none No encryption. =back =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_MAC_SC Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms from server to client. See L for supported algorithms. =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_COMP_CS Compression methods from client to server. Supported values: =over 4 =item zlib The "zlib" compression method as described in RFC 1950 and RFC 1951. =item none No compression =back =item LIBSSH2_METHOD_COMP_SC Compression methods from server to client. See L for supported compression methods. =back =head2 connect ( handle | host [, port]) The argument combinations accepted are as follows: =over 4 =item a glob or C object reference Note that tied file handles are not acceptable. The underlying libssh2 requires real file handles. =item host [, port] In order to handle IPv6 addresses the optional module L is required. The port number defaults to 22. =back This method used to accept a C argument. That feature has been replaced by the constructor C option but note that it takes milliseconds instead of seconds! =head2 disconnect ( [description [, reason [, language]]] ) Sends a clean disconnect message to the remote server. Default values are empty strings for description and language, and C for the reason. =head2 hostname The name of the remote host given at connect time or retrieved from the TCP layer. =head2 port The port number of the remote SSH server. =head2 hostkey_hash ( hash type ) Returns a hash of the host key; note that the key is raw data and may contain nulls or control characters. The type may be as follows: =over 4 =item LIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_HASH_MD5 MD5 hash, 16 bytes long (requires libssh2 compiled with MD5 support). =item LIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_HASH_SHA1 SHA1 hash, 20 bytes long. =back Note: in previous versions of the module this method was called C. =head2 remote_hostkey Returns the public key from the remote host and its type which is one of C, C, or C. =head2 check_hostkey( [policy, [known_hosts_path [, comment] ] ] ) Looks for the remote host key inside the given known host file (defaults to C<~/.ssh/known_hosts>). On success, this method returns the result of the call done under the hood to C (i.e. C, C, C or C). On failure it returns C. The accepted policies are as follows: =over 4 =item LIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_POLICY_STRICT Only host keys already present in the known hosts file are accepted. This is the default policy. =item LIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_POLICY_ASK If the host key is not present in the known hosts file, the user is asked if it should be accepted or not. If accepted, the key is added to the known host file with the given comment. =item LIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_POLICY_TOFU Trust On First Use: if the host key is not present in the known hosts file, it is added there and accepted. =item LIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_POLICY_ADVISORY The key is always accepted, but it is never saved into the known host file. =item callback If a reference to a subroutine is given, it is called when the key is not present in the known hosts file or a different key is found. The arguments passed to the callback are the session object, the matching error (C, C or C) and the comment. =back =head2 auth_list ( [username] ) Returns the authentication methods accepted by the server. In scalar context the methods are returned as a comma separated string. When the server accepted an unauthenticated session for the given username, this method returns C but L returns true. =head2 auth_ok Returns true when the session is authenticated. =head2 auth_password ( username [, password [, callback ]] ) Authenticates using a password. If the password has expired, if a callback code reference was given, it's called as C and should return a password. If no callback is provided, LIBSSH2_ERROR_PASSWORD_EXPIRED is returned. =head2 auth_password_interact ( username [, callback]) Prompts the user for the password interactively (requires L). =head2 auth_publickey ( username, publickey_path, privatekey_path [, passphrase ] ) Authenticate using the given private key and an optional passphrase. When libssh2 is compiled using OpenSSL as the crypto backend, passing this method C as the public key argument is acceptable (OpenSSL is able to extract the public key from the private one). =head2 auth_publickey_frommemory ( username, publickey_blob, privatekey_blob [, passphrase ] ) Authenticate using the given public/private key and an optional passphrase. The keys must be PEM encoded (requires libssh2 1.6.0 or later with the OpenSSL backend). =head2 auth_hostbased ( username, publickey, privatekey, hostname, [, local username [, passphrase ]] ) Host-based authentication using an optional passphrase. The local username defaults to be the same as the remote username. =head2 auth_keyboard ( username, password | callback ) Authenticate using C. Takes either a password, or a callback code reference which is invoked as C(self, username, name, instruction, prompt...)> (where each prompt is a hash with C and C keys, signifying the prompt text and whether the user input should be echoed, respectively) which should return an array of responses. If only a username is provided, the default callback will handle standard interactive responses (requires L) =head2 auth_agent ( username ) Try to authenticate using an SSH agent (requires libssh2 1.2.3). =head2 auth ( ... ) This is a general, prioritizing authentication mechanism that can use any of the previous methods. You provide it some parameters and (optionally) a ranked list of methods you want considered (defaults to all). It will remove any unsupported methods or methods for which it doesn't have parameters (e.g. if you don't give it a public key, it can't use publickey or hostkey), and try the rest, returning whichever one succeeded or C if they all failed. If a parameter is passed with an C value, a default value will be supplied if possible. The parameters are: =over 4 =item rank An optional ranked list of methods to try. The names should be the names of the L C methods, e.g. C or C, with the addition of C for automated C and C which prompts the user for the password interactively. =item username =item password =item publickey =item privatekey C and C are file paths. =item passphrase =item hostname =item local_username =item interact If this option is set to a true value, interactive methods will be enabled. =item fallback If a password is given but authentication using it fails, the module will fall back to ask the user for another password if this parameter is set to a true value. =item cb_keyboard L callback. =item cb_password L callback. =back For historical reasons and in order to maintain backward compatibility with older versions of the module, when the C argument is given, it is also used as the passphrase (and a deprecation warning generated). In order to avoid that behaviour the C argument must be also passed (it could be C). For instance: $ssh2->auth(username => $user, privatekey => $privatekey_path, publickey => $publickey_path, password => $password, passphrase => undef); This work around will be removed in a not too distant future version of the module. =head2 flag (key, value) Sets the given session flag. The currently supported flag values are: =over 4 =item LIBSSH2_FLAG_COMPRESS If set before the connection negotiation is performed, compression will be negotiated for this connection. Compression can also be enabled passing option C to the constructor L. =item LIBSSH2_FLAG_SIGPIPE if set, Net::SSH2/libssh2 will not attempt to block SIGPIPEs but will let them trigger from the underlying socket layer. =back =head2 keepalive_config(want_reply, interval) Set how often keepalive messages should be sent. C indicates whether the keepalive messages should request a response from the server. C is number of seconds that can pass without any I/O. =head2 keepalive_send Send a keepalive message if needed. On failure returns undef. On success returns how many seconds you can sleep after this call before you need to call it again. Note that the underlying libssh2 function C can not recover from EAGAIN errors. If this method fails with such error, the SSH connection may become corrupted. The usage of this function is discouraged. =head2 channel ( [type, [window size, [packet size]]] ) Creates and returns a new channel object. See L. Type, if given, must be C (a reminiscence of an old, more generic, but never working wrapping). =head2 tcpip ( host, port [, shost, sport ] ) Creates a TCP connection from the remote host to the given host:port, returning a new channel. The C and C arguments are merely informative and passed to the remote SSH server as the origin of the connection. They default to 127.0.0.1:22. Note that this method does B open a new port on the local machine and forwards incoming connections to the remote side. =head2 listen ( port [, host [, bound port [, queue size ]]] ) Sets up a TCP listening port on the remote host. Host defaults to 0.0.0.0; if bound port is provided, it should be a scalar reference in which the bound port is returned. Queue size specifies the maximum number of queued connections allowed before the server refuses new connections. Returns a new Net::SSH2::Listener object. =head2 scp_get ( remote_path [, local_path ] ) Retrieve a file with SCP. Local path defaults to basename of remote. Alternatively, C may be an already open file handle or an IO::Handle object (e.g. IO::File, IO::Scalar). =head2 scp_put ( local_path [, remote_path ] ) Send a file with SCP. Remote path defaults to same as local. Alternatively, C may be an already open file handle or a reference to a IO::Handle object (it must have a valid stat method). =head2 sftp Return SecureFTP interface object (see L). Note that SFTP support in libssh2 is pretty rudimentary. You should consider using L with the L backend L instead. =head2 public_key Return public key interface object (see L). =head2 known_hosts Returns known hosts interface object (see L). =head2 poll ( timeout, arrayref of hashes ) B: the poll functionality in libssh2 is deprecated and its usage disregarded. Session methods L and L can be used instead to integrate Net::SSH2 inside an external event loop. Pass in a timeout in milliseconds and an arrayref of hashes with the following keys: =over 4 =item handle May be a L or L object, integer file descriptor, or perl file handle. =item events Requested events. Combination of LIBSSH2_POLLFD_* constants (with the POLL prefix stripped if present), or an arrayref of the names ('in', 'hup' etc.). =item revents Returned events. Returns a hash with the (lowercased) names of the received events ('in', 'hup', etc.) as keys with true values, and a C key with the integer value. =back Returns undef on error, or the number of active objects. =head2 block_directions Get the blocked direction after some method returns C. Returns C or/and C. =head2 debug ( state ) Class method (affects all Net::SSH2 objects). Pass 1 to enable, 0 to disable. Debug output is sent to C. =head2 blocking ( flag ) Enable or disable blocking. A good number of the methods in Net::SSH2/libssh2 can not work in non-blocking mode. Some of them may just forcibly enable blocking during its execution. A few may even corrupt the SSH session or crash the program. The ones that can be safely called are C and, with some caveats, C.
