SSHKit::Sudo

SSHKit extension, for sudo operation with password input.

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

ruby gem 'sshkit-sudo'

And then execute:

$ bundle

If you’re using Capistrano, add the following to your Capfile:

ruby require 'sshkit/sudo'

Usage

This gem adds sudo and execute! command to SSHKit backends.

To execute a command with sudo, call sudo instead of execute.

```ruby sudo :cp, ‘~/something’, ‘/something’

Or as follows:

execute! :sudo, :cp, ‘~/something’, ‘/something’ ```

Examples in Capistrano tasks

```ruby # Executing a command with sudo in Capistrano task namespace :nginx do desc ‘Reload nginx’ task :reload do on roles(:web), in: :sequence do sudo :service, :nginx, :reload end end

desc ‘Restart nginx’ task :restart do on roles(:web), in: :sequence do execute! :sudo, :service, :nginx, :restart end end end

namespace :prov do desc ‘Install nginx’ task :nginx do on roles(:web), in: :sequence do

  within '/etc/apt' do
    unless test :grep, '-Fxq', '"deb http://nginx.org/packages/debian/ wheezy nginx"', 'sources.list'
      execute! :echo, '"deb http://nginx.org/packages/debian/ wheezy nginx"', '|', 'sudo tee -a sources.list'
      execute! :echo, '"deb-src http://nginx.org/packages/debian/ wheezy nginx"', '|', 'sudo tee -a sources.list'

      execute! :wget, '-q0 - http://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key', '|', 'sudo apt-key add -'

      sudo :'apt-get', :update
    end
  end
