Net::SSH sudo command hangs after entering password

问题

I've been trying to write a small library using Thor to help assist me in quick creating new projects and sites. I wrote this small method:

def ssh(cmd)
  Net::SSH.start( server_ip, user, :port => port) do |session|
    session.exec cmd
  end
end

to just assist me in running quick commands on remote servers when needed.

The problem is when I need to run a command under sudo on the remote end, the script just seems to hang on me. For example when executing this...

ssh("sudo cp #{file_from_path} #{file_to_path}" )

The script will prompt me for a password

[sudo] password for user:

But then the whole thing hhangs after typing it in.

Would anyone happen to know why it hangs exactly, and what I can do to run sudo command on a remote server under Net::SSH (or some alternative)?

*note: Before suggested, I had originally started writing this library as a recipe under Capistrano, until I came upon Thor, and thought it would be a good chance to try it out. I'm not against having to switch the whole thing back to Capistrano if needed, but I'd just be really surprised if there isn't an easy way to run sudo commands on a remote server.

回答1:

The first thing you might want to try is using public keys instead of passwords to login. Then also try running the command from the interactive shell.

For example:

(This part really depends on the server/client software you have)

$ ssh-keygen
$ scp .ssh/id-dsa.pub server:
$ ssh server
server$ cat id-dsa.pub >> .ssh/authorizedkeys

$ scp -c "ls"

this should work without any prompts, if the key sharing was successful.

I hope this will help someone searching. I also needed to sudo during deployment (restarting thin instances)

# deploy.rake
require 'net/ssh'

# INITIALIZE CONSTANTS HERE
HOST = 'yourwebsite.com'
USER = 'admin'
PASSWORD = 'your server password' # or use ENV variables?
# etc.

namespace :deploy do 
  namespace :staging do  
    task :restart do
      commands = [
        "cd #{PATH_TO_STAGING_APP} && git checkout master",
        "git reset --hard HEAD",
        "git pull origin master",
        "bundle install --without test development",
        "sudo thin restart -C /etc/thin/#{STAGING_APP}.yml"
      ]

      Net::SSH.start(HOST, USER, :password => PASSWORD) do |ssh|
        ssh.open_channel do |channel|
          channel.request_pty do |ch, success|
            if success
              puts "Successfully obtained pty"
            else
              puts "Could not obtain pty"
            end
          end

          channel.exec(commands.join(';')) do |ch, success|
            abort "Could not execute commands!" unless success

            channel.on_data do |ch, data|
              puts "#{data}"
              channel.send_data "#{PASSWORD}\n" if data =~ /password/
            end

            channel.on_extended_data do |ch, type, data|
              puts "stderr: #{data}"
            end

            channel.on_close do |ch|
              puts "Channel is closing!"
            end
          end
        end
        ssh.loop
      end
    end
  end
end

Note that one channel can only execute one command. Hence I chained the commands together with commands.join(';')

Here is a possible solution :

def ssh(cmd)
  Net::SSH.start( server_ip, user, :port => port) do |session|
    result = nil
    session.exec!(cmd) do |channel, stream, data|
      if data =~ /^\[sudo\] password for user:/
        channel.send_data 'your_sudo_password'
      else
        result << data
      end
    end
    result # content of 'cmd' result
  end
end

But with this solution, you have your root password writen in clear in a script file somewhere ...

回答4:

It's possible to set it up with net/ssh, but it's really too much effort, just execute ssh command like this:

system("ssh", "-t", "#{user}@#{host}", "sudo cp #{file_from_path} #{file_to_path}")

This -t means to allocate a tty. Without it it will still work, but your password will be seen in clear.

(I assume you intend to type sudo password manually. If not, go the authorized keys way).

回答5:

I cheated by doing adding this:

sudouser  ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

to /etc/sudoers

Also, be sure to use visudo when editing!!!

回答6:

Actually in the end, I did something very similar to Riba's suggestion (although his/her code is much better and smarter, I think)

def ssh(env, cmd, opts={})
    Net::SSH.start( config[env]["ip"], config[env]["user"], :port => config[env]["port"]) do |session|
        cmd = "sudo #{cmd}" if opts[:sudo]
        print cmd
        session.exec cmd
    end
end
