NAME

       Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl - Net::OpenSSH adapter for Net::SSH::Perl API compatibility

SYNOPSIS

         use Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl qw(:supplant);

         use Net::SSH::Perl;

         my $ssh = Net::SSH::Perl->new('host');
         $ssh->login($user, $passwd);

         my ($out, $err, $rc) = $ssh->cmd($cmd);

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements a subset of Net::SSH::Perl API on top of Net::OpenSSH.

       After the module is loaded as...

         use Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl qw(:supplant);

       ... it supplants the Net::SSH::Perl module as if it were installed on the machine using
       Net::OpenSSH under the hood to handle SSH operations.

   Setting defaults
       The hash %Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl::DEFAULTS can be used to set default values for
       Net::OpenSSH and other modules called under the hood and otherwise not accesible through
       the Net::SSH::Perl API.

       The entries currently supported are:

       connection => [ %opts ]
           Extra options passed to "Net::OpenSSH::new" constructor.

           Example:

             $Net::OpenSSH::Compat::SSH::Perl::DEFAULTS{connection} =
               [ ssh_path => "/opt/SSH/bin/ssh" ];

BUGS AND SUPPORT

       This is a work in progress.

       "register_handler" method is not supported.

       Net::SSH::Perl submodules (i.e. Net::SSH::Perl::Channel) are not emulated.

       Anyway, if your Net::SSH::Perl script fails, fill a bug report at the CPAN RT bugtracker
       (https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Create.html?Queue=Net-OpenSSH-Compat
       <https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Create.html?Queue=Net-OpenSSH-Compat>) or just send me an
       e-mail with the details.

       Include at least:

       1 - The full source of the script
       2 - A description of what happens in your machine
       3 - What you thing it should be happening
       4 - What happens when you use the real Net::SSH::Perl
       5 - The version and name of your operating system
       6 - The version of the OpenSSH ssh client installed on your machine ("ssh -V")
       7 - The Perl version ("perl -V")
       8 - The versions of the Perl packages Net::OpenSSH, IO::Pty and this Net::OpenSSH::Compat.
