Interface Session

session.go:22–85

Session provides access to information about an SSH session and methods to read and write to the SSH channel with an embedded Channel interface from crypto/ssh. When Command() returns an empty slice, the user requested a shell. Otherwise the user is performing an exec with those command arguments.

type Session interface {
	gossh.Channel

	// User returns the username used when establishing the SSH connection.
	User() string

	// RemoteAddr returns the net.Addr of the client side of the connection.
	RemoteAddr() net.Addr

	// LocalAddr returns the net.Addr of the server side of the connection.
	LocalAddr() net.Addr

	// Environ returns a copy of strings representing the environment set by the
	// user for this session, in the form "key=value".
	Environ() []string

	// Exit sends an exit status and then closes the session.
	Exit(code int) error

	// Command returns a shell parsed slice of arguments that were provided by the
	// user. Shell parsing splits the command string according to POSIX shell rules,
	// which considers quoting not just whitespace.
	Command() []string

	// RawCommand returns the exact command that was provided by the user.
	RawCommand() string

	// Subsystem returns the subsystem requested by the user.
	Subsystem() string

	// PublicKey returns the PublicKey used to authenticate. If a public key was not
	// used it will return nil.
	PublicKey() PublicKey

	// Context returns the connection's context. The returned context is always
	// non-nil and holds the same data as the Context passed into auth
	// handlers and callbacks.
	//
	// The context is canceled when the client's connection closes or I/O
	// operation fails.
	Context() Context

	// Permissions returns a copy of the Permissions object that was available for
	// setup in the auth handlers via the Context.
	Permissions() Permissions

	// Pty returns PTY information, a channel of window size changes, and a boolean
	// of whether or not a PTY was accepted for this session.
	Pty() (Pty, <-chan Window, bool)

	// Signals registers a channel to receive signals sent from the client. The
	// channel must handle signal sends or it will block the SSH request loop.
	// Registering nil will unregister the channel from signal sends. During the
	// time no channel is registered signals are buffered up to a reasonable amount.
	// If there are buffered signals when a channel is registered, they will be
	// sent in order on the channel immediately after registering.
	Signals(c chan<- Signal)
