lifo / remote-control example snippets

// Raw control object for low level access (see 2nd example for an easier approach)
$rc = new RemoteControl("ssh username@hostname", array(
    'auto_start' => true,
    'log_stdout' => true,
    // more options available
));

// generic prompt for "cisco" devices; your milage may vary.
$prompt = '[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+ ?(\(config[^\)]*\))? ?[$#>] ?(\(enable\))? *$';

// wait for output from the process and act upon various patterns.
// Each pattern can be a closure or simple variable. If any closure
// returns true or RemoteControl::WAIT_DONE then the wait loop will end.
$res = $rc->wait(array(
    //    REGEX/GLOB/STR => Closure or mixed value
    array($prompt        => true ),
    array('yes/no\)\?'   => function($rc){ $rc->writeln('yes'); } ),
    array('[Pp]assword:' => function($rc){ $rc->writeln('password'); } ),

// attempt another command and wait for prompt
$rc->writeln("show clock");
$rc->wait($prompt);

// OR ... (this is preferred over the low-level method above)

// High level control object for easier access of network type devices
$d = new NetworkDevice(array(
    'protocol' => 'ssh',
    'host'     => 'hostname',
    'username' => 'username',
    'password' => 'password',

    //    'log_stdout' => true,
    //)
));
$d->verbose(true); // for debugging/troubleshooting only; same as setting log_stdout = true

// login method handles a lot of variations for different devices and 
// will enable if possible. You can call $d->enable() manually too.
if (!$d->login()) {
    die("Error logging in!\n");
}

// basic method to send a command and wait for a prompt. Returns 
// any output received after the commmand.
echo $d->send("show version");
