The obvious call: subprocess.call(["ssh", "remoteuser@remote", "python", "remote.py", "arg 1", "arg 2", "arg 3"]) won't work because ssh will break up the "arg n" strings. You need to use "'arg n'" or put the whole python command in a string like: "python TEST/testargs.py 'arg 1' 'arg 2' 'arg 3'" -- Piet van Oostrum WWW: http://pietvanoostrum.com/ PGP key: [8DAE142BE17999C4] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Ismael Farfán writes: > How about something like this: > os.system ( 'ssh remoteuser@remote python remote.py "arg 1" "arg 2" "arg 3"' ) That won't work. You need an additional level of quoting because ssh is also a shell so it adds another level of interpretation. The following works: os.system('''ssh remoteuser@remote "python remote.py 'arg 1' 'arg 2' 'arg 3'"''') -- Piet van Oostrum WWW: http://pietvanoostrum.com/ PGP key: [8DAE142BE17999C4] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Use the `subprocess` module instead (with shell=False). You then won't need to worry about escaping. http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html Cheers, Chris -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

You haven't provided very many details, so it's possible ssh is the low-impact solution, but don't discard the possibility of using a TCP socket for this.

Passing arguments to & executing, a python script on a remote machine from a python script on local machine (using ssh ?)
Hi c.l.p folks Here is my situation 1. I have two machines. Lets call them 'local' & 'remote'. Both run ubuntu & both have python installed 2. I have a python script, local.py, running on 'local' which needs to pass arguments ( 3/4 string arguments, containing whitespaces like spaces, etc ) to a python script, remote.py running on 'remote' (the remote machine). I have the following questions: 1. What's the best way to accomplish my task ? I have researched quite a bit & pretty much everybody is using ssh. After googling a bunch, most people are using very complex workarounds to do this sort of thing. I googled & found people using several libraries to accomplish ssh to remote machine & execute a command on remote machine. paramiko ( now forked into the ssh moduke), fabric, pushy ,etc People who have used any of these libraries, which one would you recommend, as the most apt (simple & easy to use, lightweight, best performance, etc) for my situation ? 2. I would prefer a solution, which does NOT require the installation of extra libraries on the local & remote machines. If installing external librar 3. Has anybody been able to do this using os.system ? I tried this >>> import os >>> os.system ("ssh remoteuser@remote python remote.py arg1 arg2 arg3") This worked, but if the arguments i tried to pass, had spaces, i was not able to 'escape' the spaces. Any & all explanations/links/code snippets/thoughts/ideas/suggestions/feedback/comments/ of the Python tutor community would be greatly appreciated.
