Paramiko
Posted : admin On 1/26/2022- Paramiko Expect provides an expect-like extension for the Paramiko SSH library which allows scripts to fully interact with hosts via a true SSH connection. The class is constructed with an SSH Client object (this will likely be extended to support a transport in future for more flexibility).

Note
This module is part of ansible-base
and included in all Ansibleinstallations. In most cases, you can use the short module nameparamiko_ssh even without specifying the collections:
keyword.Despite that, we recommend you use the FQCN for easy linking to the moduledocumentation and to avoid conflicting with other collections that may havethe same module name.
Paramiko.ChannelFile from paramiko.Channel. Etc Is there a simple way for me to only get the 'clean' stdout output returned from execcommand? I know I can parse the present output (to obtain only 0 in this particular case), but I believe there must be another solution by paramiko's design. It is explain about: What is paramiko? Python module to connect with remote server? I am going to release complete videos on paramiko module.



Use the python ssh implementation (Paramiko) to connect to targets
The paramiko transport is provided because many distributions, in particular EL6 and before do not support ControlPersist in their SSH implementations.
This is needed on the Ansible control machine to be reasonably efficient with connections. Thus paramiko is faster for most users on these platforms. Users with ControlPersist capability can consider using -c ssh or configuring the transport in the configuration file.
This plugin also borrows a lot of settings from the ssh plugin as they both cover the same protocol.
