ExecuteSSHCommand Method
Sends an SSH command to the server in the middle of SFTP session.
Syntax
sftpclient.executeSSHCommand(command, [callback])
Callback
The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).
The callback for this method is defined as:
function(err, buffer){ }
'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.
'buffer' is the value returned by the method.
'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:
err.code err.message
Remarks
Use this command to send an SSH command to the server in the middle of an SFTP session. The command is executed in a secondary channel, so the SFTP connection is not affected.
This method is suitable for simple commands that do not require interaction with the user. The call returns the command output.
