The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Net::SSH::Perl::Timeout
DSLIP: MdpOp
description: A wrapper of Net::SSH::Perl that has timeout
userid: AVIVSIM (Aviv Simionovici)
chapterid: 5 (Networking_Devices_IPC)
communities:
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=566455
similar:
Net::OpenSSH
rationale:
I am an experienced software engineer from Israel. In the past 2
years I've worked with perl on linux in order to build a large
automation framework for vmware/emc. I noticed that Net::SSH::Perl
lacks the notion/api for 'timeout'. The other perl module
Net::OpenSSH does not implement the timeout correctly due to
improper implementation in the OpenSSH itself. I wrote a wrapper on
top of Net::SSH::Perl that implements timeout on ssh commands. The
module I wrote uses another thread that monitors the main thread and
can stop it if the timeout elapsed. It uses forks; forks::shared;
Thread::Queue. The module I wrote is just a wrapper on top of
Net::SSH::Perl, adds to it only a few apis that use timeout. All
other Net::SSH::Perl are exposed as in the original Net::SSH::Perl.
