1.0.0

1.0.0 Release

Changes from 1.0.0 RC1

No changes.

Changes from 0.9x series API

• ParallelSSHClient.join no longer consumes output buffers
• Command output is now a dictionary of host name -> host output object with stdout and et al attributes. Host output supports dictionary-like item lookup for backwards compatibility. No code changes are needed to output use though documentation will from now on refer to the new attribute style output. Dictionary-like item access is deprecated and will be removed in future major release, like 2.x.
• Made output encoding configurable via keyword argument on run_command and get_output
• pssh.output.HostOutput class added to hold host output
• Added copy_remote_file function for copying remote files to local ones in parallel
• Deprecated since 0.70.0 ParallelSSHClient API endpoints removed
• Removed setuptools >= 28.0.0 dependency for better compatibility with existing installations. Pip version dependency remains for Py 2.6 compatibility with gevent - documented on project's readme
• Documented use_pty parameter of run_command
• SSHClient read_output_buffer is now public function and has gained callback capability
• If using the single SSHClient directly, read_output_buffer should now be used to read output buffers - this is not needed for ParallelSSHClient
• run_command now uses named positional and keyword arguments

1.0.0 Beta 4

Changes

• Made output encoding configurable via keyword argument on run_command and get_output
• Refactoring for py2/3 compatibility for all of code, tests and embedded server without use of 2to3

1.0.0 beta 3

Release 1.0.0 Beta 3

Changes

• Command output is now a dictionary of host name -> host output object with stdout and so on attributes. Host output supports dictionary-like item lookup for backwards compatibility. No code changes are needed to output use though documentation will from now on refer to the new attribute style output. Dictionary-like item access is deprecated and will be removed in future major release, like 2.x
• run_command now uses named positional and keyword arguments

1.0.0 beta 2

1.0.0 Beta release 2

Changes

• ParallelSSHClient.join no longer consumes output buffers
• Documented use_pty parameter of run_command
• Misc documentation updates
• SSHClient read_output_buffer is now public function and has gained callback capability
• If using the single SSHClient directly, read_output_buffer should now be used to read output buffers - this is not needed for ParallelSSHClient

ParallelSSHClient.join change means that the following two code sections are now equivalent

output = client.run_command(<..>)
stdout = list(output[host]['stdout']
exit_code = output[host]['exit_code']

output = client.run_command(<..>)
client.join(output)
exit_code = output[host]['exit_code']
stdout = list(output[host]['stdout']

stdout in the second section will contain standard output. Previously it would be empty if client.join was called before stdout iteration. Exit codes will be available in both cases, as previously.
