This is a small collection of base classes used for interacting with

remote machines over ssh.  With them, you can use AMQP (via Symphony) to

run batch commands, execute templates as scripts, and perform any

batch/remoting stuff you can think of without the need of a separate

client agent.

These classes assume you have a user that can connect and login to

remote machines using a password-less ssh keypair.  They are not meant

to be used directly.  Subclass them!

See the rdoc for additional information and examples.

Symphony-ssh uses

Configurability[https://rubygems.org/gems/configurability] to determine

behavior.  The configuration is a YAML[http://www.yaml.org/] file. 

    symphony:

        ssh:

            path: /usr/bin/ssh

            user: root

            key: /path/to/a/private_key.rsa

            opts:

              - -e

              - none

              - -T

              - -x

              - -o

              - CheckHostIP=no'

              - -o

              - BatchMode=yes'

              - -o

              - StrictHostKeyChecking=no

**NOTE**: If you've upgrade from a version pre 0.2.0, the

Configurability path has changed from `symphony_ssh`, to an `ssh` key

under the `symphony` top level.

The absolute path to the ssh binary.

The default user to connect to remote hosts with.  This can be

changed per connection in the AMQP payload.

An absolute path to a password-less ssh private key.

SSH client options, passed to the ssh binary on the command line.  Note

that the defaults have been tested fairly extensively, these are just

exposed if you have very specific needs and you know what you're doing.

    gem install symphony-ssh

After checking out the source, run:

    $ rake

This task will run the tests/specs and generate the API documentation.

If you use {rvm}[http://rvm.io/], entering the project directory will

install any required development dependencies.
