Class

Session

Extends: Object

Attributes Methods

Encapsulates a single session (connection) to a server via SSH.

Public Attributes
connection	The underlying connection
host	The name of the host that this session is connected to.
options	The hash of options that were used to establish this session.
registry	The dependency-injection registry used by this session.

Public Methods
close	Closes the session, if it is open. If it is not open, this does nothing.
loop	Enters the main communication loop. This processes events occuring over the channel. If a block is given, the loop will continue for as long as the block returns `true`. Otherwise, the loop continues until there are no more open channels. (See Net::SSH::Connection::Driver#loop).
method_missing	Provides convenient access to services that have been registered with the session, such as "process" and "forward".
new	Create a new SSH session. This method polymorphically accepts a variable number of parameters, as follows:
open?	Returns `true` if the session is currently open.
open_channel	Opens a new communication channel over the current connection. This returns immediately. The block will be invoked when then the channel has been opened. (See Net::SSH::Connection::Driver#open_channel).

Private Methods
host_key_verifier_from
process_arguments	Processes the argument list, determining the meaning of each argument and allowing polymorphic argument lists. (See #initialize).
sanity_check	Make sure we’re in an acceptible state.
