how to read from ssh session

[storm dagger]

I don't understand, are you running ssh as an external command line? If so, ssh will run a command remotely and the standard input and output of the ssh command will be connected to the standard output and input of the remotely executed command.

I’m using the ssh command on my client

To connect to my server

And I get those debug messages

And correctly see the output from my server

[storm dagger]

oh, I don't know that client, I can't help

[rain sierra]

The openssh

Command

Ssh

Any ssh client works for connecting tbh

I just wanna do it with golang

like the normal ssh command is what I used

I want an interactive session where I can read from stdout

I’m just running ssh user@myserver

not a single command

[rain sierra]

I don’t want to execute a command

I just want to have a stdin and stdout I can write and read to

With the go ssh library

[storm dagger]

does go have a ssh client in the std lib? 😮

[storm dagger]

this looks like you are not using the executable ssh

[storm dagger]

this looks like you are indeed using the executable ssh

[storm dagger]

this looks like you are running the default shell in the remote machine

if you share a link to your code that may help as right now it's a bit nebulous what you're trying to do and what help you're seeking

[rain sierra]

I am

[rain sierra]

So it works with the ssh executable but fails with golang ssh library

When it works with the ssh executable I get that debug1 output

I’ll show code

[storm dagger]

it might be looking for the standard input to ask for the password and you didn't propagate it

[storm dagger]

if it's interactive, it is a shell, sh/bash/something-else

[storm dagger]

there is always a single command

[rain sierra]

I can authenticate just fine, in both the ssh executable and in golang, the problem is reading from the shell

btw I’m not home yet :/

so no code yet

[storm dagger]

then it might be you are actually reading from the ssh output

[rain sierra]

OMGGGGG

Solved

Ok so I needed to turn on the stdoutpipe before running shell

lol

[storm dagger]

oh, was I right? 😄
