=head1 NAME

Anvil::Tools::Remote

Provides all methods related to accessing a remote system. Currently, all methods use SSH for remote access

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Anvil::Tools;

 # Get a common object handle on all Anvil::Tools modules.
 my $anvil = Anvil::Tools->new();
 
 # Access to methods using '$anvil->Storage->X'. 
 # 
 # Example using 'find()';
 my $foo_path = $anvil->Storage->find({file => "foo"});

=head2 add_target_to_known_hosts

This checks the C<< user >>'s C<< ~/.ssh/known_hosts >> file for the presence of the C<< target >>'s SSH RSA fingerprint. If it isn't found, it uses C<< ssh-keyscan >> to add the host. Optionally, it can delete any existing fingerprints (useful for handling a rebuilt machine).

Returns C<< 0 >> on success, C<< 1 >> on failure.

Parameters;

=head3 delete_if_found (optional, default 0)

If set, and if a previous fingerprint was found for the C<< target >>, the old fingerprint will be removed.

B<< NOTE >>: Obviously, this introduces a possible security issue. Care needs to be taken that the key being removed is, in fact, no longer needed.

=head3 port (optional, default 22)

This is the TCP port to use when connecting to the C<< target >> over SSH.

=head3 target (required)

This is the IP address or (resolvable) host name of the machine who's key we're recording.

=head3 user (optional, defaults to user running this method)

This is the user who we're recording the key for.

=head2 call

This does a remote call over SSH. The connection is held open and the file handle for the target is cached and re-used unless a C<< close >> is set to C<< 1 >>. 

Example;

 # Call 'hostnamectl' on a node.
 my ($output, $error, $return_code) = $anvil->Remote->call({
 	target      => "an-a01n01.alteeve.com",
 	password    => "super secret password",
 	remote_user => "admin",
 	shell_call  => "/usr/bin/hostnamectl",
 });
 
 # Make a call with sensitive data that you want logged only if $anvil->Log->secure is set and close the 
 # connection when done.
 my ($output, $error, $return_code) = $anvil->Remote->call({
 	target      => "an-a01n01.alteeve.com",
 	password    => "super secret password",
 	remote_user => "root",
 	shell_call  => "/usr/sbin/fence_ipmilan -a an-a01n02.ipmi -l admin -p \"super secret password\" -o status",
 	secure      => 1,
	'close'     => 1, 
 });

If there is any problem connecting to the target, C<< $error >> will contain a translated string explaining what went wrong. Checking if this is B<< false >> is a good way to verify that the call succeeded.

Any output from the call will be stored in C<< $output >>. STDERR and STDOUT are merged into the C<< $output >> array reference.

B<NOTE>: By default, a connection to a target will be held open and cached to increase performance for future connections. 

B<NOTE>: If the C<< target >> is actually the local system, C<< System->call >> is called instead, and the C<< error >> variable will be set to C<< local >>.

Parameters;

=head3 close (optional, default '0')

If set, the connection to the target will be closed at the end of the call.

=head3 log_level (optional, default C<< 3 >>)

If set, the method will use the given log level. Valid values are integers between C<< 0 >> and C<< 4 >>.

=head3 no_cache (optional, default C<< 0 >>)

If set, and if an existing cached connection is open, it will be closed and a new connection to the target will be established.

=head3 ossh_opts (optional, default [])

This is a ref to an array of named elements which extends the options passed to Net:OpenSSH->new().

=head3 password (optional)

This is the password used to connect to the remote target as the given user.

B<NOTE>: Passwordless SSH is supported. If you can ssh to the target as the given user without a password, then no password needs to be given here.

=head3 port (optional, default C<< 22 >>)

This is the TCP port to use when connecting to the C<< target >>. The default is port 22.

B<NOTE>: See C<< target >> for optional port definition.

=head3 remote_user (optional, default root)

This is the user account on the C<< target >> to connect as and to run the C<< shell_call >> as. The C<< password >> if so this user's account on the C<< target >>.

=head3 secure (optional, default C<< 0 >>)

If set, the C<< shell_call >> is treated as containing sensitive data and will not be logged unless C<< $anvil->Log->secure >> is enabled.

=head3 shell_call (required)

This is the command to run on the target machine as the target user.

=head3 target (required)

This is the host name or IP address of the target machine that the C<< shell_call >> will be run on.

B<NOTE>: If the target matches an entry in '/etc/ssh/ssh_config', the port defined there is used. If the port is set as part of the target name, the port in 'ssh_config' is ignored.

B<NOTE>: If the C<< target >> is presented in the format C<< target:port >>, the port will be separated from the target and used as the TCP port. If the C<< port >> parameter is set, however, the port split off the C<< target >> will be ignored.

=head3 timeout (optional, default '10')

B<NOTE>: This is the timeout for the command to return, in seconds. This is NOT the connection timeout!

If this is set to a numeric whole number, then the called shell command will have the set number of seconds to complete. If this is set to C<< 0 >>, then no timeout will be used.

=head2 read_snmp_oid

This connects to a remote machine using SNMP and reads (if possible) the OID specified. If unable to reach the target device, C<< !!no_connection!! >> is returned. If there is a problem with the call made to this method, C<< !!error!! >> is returned. 

Otherwise, two values are returned; first the data and second the data type.

Parameters;

=head3 community (optional)

This is the SNMP community used to connect to.

=head3 mib (optional)

If set to a path to a file, the file is treated as a custom MIB to be fed into C<< snmpget >>

=head3 oid (required)

This is the OID string to query.

=head3 target (required)

This is the IP or (resolvable) host name to query.

=head3 version (optional, default '2c')

This is the SNMP protocol version to use when connecting to the target.

=head2 test_access

This attempts to log into the target to verify that the target is up and reachable. It returns C<< 1 >> on access, C<< 0 >> otherwise.

 my $access = $anvil->Remote->test_access({
 	target   => "remote_host",
 	password => "secret",
 });

Parameters;

=head3 close (optional, default '1')

If set, the SSH connection used to test the access to the remote host wil be closed. This can be useful it there might be a delay between when the connecton is tested and when it is used again.

=head3 password (optional)

This is the password used to connect to the remote target as the given user.

B<NOTE>: Passwordless SSH is supported. If you can ssh to the target as the given user without a password, then no password needs to be given here.

=head3 port (optional, default '22')

This is the TCP port to use when connecting to the C<< target >> over SSH.

=head3 target (required)

This is the IP address or (resolvable) host name of the machine who's key we're recording.

=head3 user (optional, defaults to user running this method)

This is the user who we're recording the key for.

=head2 _call_ssh_keyscan

Returns C<< 0 >> if the addition failed, returns C<< 1 >> if it was successful.

Parameters;

=head3 known_hosts (required)

This is the specific C<< known_hosts >> file we're checking.

=head3 port (optional, default 22)

This is the SSH TCP port used to connect to C<< target >>.

=head3 target (required)

This is the IP or (resolvable) host name of the machine who's RSA fingerprint we're checking.

=head3 user (optional, default to user running this method)

=head3 _check_known_hosts_for_target

This checks to see if a given C<< target >> machine is in the C<< user >>'s C<< known_hosts >> file.

Returns C<< 0 >> if the target is not in the C<< known_hosts >> file, C<< 1 >> if it was found.

Parameters;

=head3 delete_if_found (optional, default 0)

Deletes the existing RSA fingerprint if one is found for the C<< target >>.

=head3 known_hosts (required)

This is the specific C<< known_hosts >> file we're checking.

=head3 port (optional, default 22)

This is the SSH TCP port used to connect to C<< target >>.

=head3 target (required)

This is the IP or (resolvable) host name of the machine who's RSA fingerprint we're checking.

=head3 user (optional, default to user running this method)

This is the user who's C<< known_hosts >> we're checking.
