Description

Note: This wrapper is not enabled by default

In addition to accepting traditional URI login details, the ssh2 wrappers will also reuse open connections by passing the connection resource in the host portion of the URL.

Examples

Example #1 Opening a stream from an active connection

<?php
$session = ssh2_connect('example.com', 22);
ssh2_auth_pubkey_file($session, 'username', '/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa.pub',
                                            '/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa', 'secret');
$stream = fopen("ssh2.tunnel://$session/remote.example.com:1234", 'r');
?>

Example #2 This $session variable must be kept available!

In order to use the ssh2.*://$session wrappers you must keep the $session resource variable. The code below will not have the desired effect:

<?php
$session = ssh2_connect('example.com', 22);
ssh2_auth_pubkey_file($session, 'username', '/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa.pub',
                                            '/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa', 'secret');
$connection_string = "ssh2.sftp://$session/";
unset($session);
$stream = fopen($connection_string . "path/to/file", 'r');
?>

unset() closes the session, because $connection_string does not hold a reference to the $session variable, just a string cast derived from it. This also happens when the unset() is implicit because of leaving scope (like in a function).
