Usage

Getting the result of a command

To check if your command ran ok

$process->isSuccessfull();

This is how you can get the output

$process->getOutput();

Running multiple commands

To run multiple commands pass an array to the execute method.

$process = Ssh::create('user', 'host')->execute([
   'first command',
   'second command',
]);

Choosing a port

You can choose a port by passing it to the constructor.

$port = 123;

Ssh::create('user', 'host', $port);

Alternatively you can use the usePort function:

Ssh::create('user', 'host')->usePort($port);

Specifying the private key to use

You can use usePrivateKey to specify a path to a private SSH key to use.

Ssh::create('user', 'host')->usePrivateKey('/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa');
