Unable to log input/output of a pexpect.spawn instance to log file and sys.stdout. I am writing a function "connect()" to spawn ssh connection to a linux server. From another function get_build(), I am calling connect() function. After creating bld_server_socket instance, I am trying to log the o/p of the child to file and standard o/p. I do not see any o/p on the stdout nor the file.
def connect(dev_ip, user, password):
child = pexpect.spawn('ssh {}@{}'.format(user, self.dev_ip))
tries = 0
while tries < 5:
i = child.expect(['[pP]assword:', '\(yes/no\)', ">", "[#$]", pexpect.EOF, pexpect.TIMEOUT])
if i == 0:
child.sendline(password)
if i == 1:
child.sendline('yes')
if i == 2:
child.sendline('enable')
if i == 3:
child.sendline('\n')
break
tries += 1
print type(child)
return child
def get_build(version, build_server_ip, mod):
bld_server_socket = connect(build_server_ip, 'root', 'password')
file = open('sshlog.txt', 'a')
bld_server_socket.logfile = file
bld_server_socket.logfile = sys.stdout
bld_server_socket.expect('$')
bld_server_socket.sendline('ls')
