ClusterSSH::Host

SYNOPSIS

    use ClusterSSH::Host;
    my $host = ClusterSSH::Host->new({
        hostname => 'hostname',
    });
    my $host = ClusterSSH::Host->parse_host_string('username@hostname:1234');

DESCRIPTION

Object representing a host. Include details to contact the host such as hostname/ipaddress, username and port.

METHODS

$host=ClusterSSH::Host->new ({ hostname => 'hostname' }): Create a new host object. 'hostname' is a required arg, 'username' and 'port' are optional. Raises exception if an error occurs.
$host->get_hostname
$host->get_username
$host->get_port
$host->get_master: Return specific details about the host
$host->set_username
$host->set_port
$host->set_master: Set specific details about the host after its been created.
get_realname: If the server name provided is not an IP address (either IPv4 or IPv6) attempt to resolve it and retun the discovered names.
get_givenname: Alias to get_hostname, for use when " get_realname " might return something different
parse_host_string: Given a host string, returns a host object. Parses hosts such as
check_ssh_hostname: Check the objects hostname to see whether or not it may be configured within the users $HOME/.ssh/config configuration file

host
192.168.0.1
user@host
user@192.168.0.1
host:port
[1234:1234:1234::4567]:port
1234:1234:1234::4567

and so on. Cope with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses - raises a warning if the IPv6 address is ambiguous (i.e. in the last example, is the 4567 part of the IPv6 address or a port definition?) and assumes it is part of address. Use brackets to avoid seeing warning.
