When I try to use ping in colab I get:
!ping binance.com
/bin/bash: ping: command not found
The quick reference guide is not showing ping:
%quickref
But using os library seems to execute the ping command:
import os
os.system("ping binance.com")
32512
What is the meaning of the result? (32512)
I think at this time, there is no other ways of using a terminal in google colab unless you pay for the pro. The 32512 in ping means Keys expired.
import os
hostname = "binance.com"
response = os.system("ping -c 1 " + hostname)
if response == 0:
print(hostname, 'Connected')
else:
print(hostname, 'Connect Fail')
You can try this code and should give you a clearer result which is 'Connect Fail' In the past, you can use Teleconsole, however it was shut down since 04.09.2021

Hello I am making a discord bot with Python but I am not getting to how to add ping in bot...like how much ping does Bor have .I have searched on ggl but it is now working if you know please let me know
For python3 use module ping3: (pip install ping3, needs root privileges).
from ping3 import ping, verbose_ping
ping('google.com') # Returns delay in seconds. 0.0010232925415039062
If your running environment is not windows, you can do this.
You just have to call a system command and check the return code.
If you want to improve this example, you can test the current OS and run the apropriate command.
import os
hostname = "yoururl.com"
response = os.system("ping -c 1 " + hostname)
if response == 0:
print hostname, 'Up'
else:
print hostname, 'Unreachable'
i created a script which runs on boot which checks if there's an internet connection on my raspberry pi, and at the same time updates the time (care of ntp) - via os.system().
import datetime, os, socket, subprocess
from time import sleep
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
def internet(host="8.8.8.8"):
result = subprocess.call("ping -c 1 "+host, stdout=open(os.devnull,'w'), shell=True)
if result == 0:
return True
else:
return False
timestr = time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d--%H:%M:%S")
netstatus = internet()
while netstatus == False:
sleep(30)
netstatus = internet()
if netstatus == True:
print "successfully connected! updating time . . . "
os.system("sudo bash "+dir_path+"/updatetime.sh")
print "time updated! time check %s"%datetime.datetime.now()
where updatetime.sh contains the following:
service ntp stop
ntpd -q -g
service ntp start
this script runs at reboot/boot and i'm running this in our workplace, 24/7. also, outputs from scripts like these are saved in a log file. it's working fine, but is there a way how NOT to output connect: Network is unreachable
if there's no internet connection? thanks.
edit
i run this script via a shell script i named launch.sh which runs check_net.py (this script's name), and other preliminary scripts, and i placed launch.sh in my crontab to run on boot/reboot:
#reboot sh /home/pi/launch.sh > /home/pi/logs/cronlog 2>&1
from what i've read in this thread: what does '>/dev/null/ 2>&1' mean, 2 handles stderr where as 1 handles stdout.
i am new to this. I wish to see my stdout - but not the stderrs (in this case, the connect: Network is unreachable messages (only)..
/ogs
As per #shellter 's link suggestion in the comments, i restructured my cron to:
#reboot sh /home/pi/launch.sh 2>&1 > /home/pi/logs/cronlog | grep "connect: Network is unreachable"
alternatively, i also came up of an alternative solution, which involves a different way of checking an internet connection with the use urllib2.urlopen():
def internet_init():
try:
urllib2.urlopen('https://www.google.com', timeout=1)
return True
except urllib2.URLError as err:
return False
either of the two methods above omitted any connect: Network is unreachable error output in my logs.
thanks!

I'm using Python to automate copying binaries off a network sensor using scp. I want to add in some error checking and I can't figure out how to reliably check if SSH throws errors, such as a hostname resolution error. I'm currently using .communicate() to collect stdout, and then matching on "ssh" in the error message. The reason I'm checking if err starts with "ssh" is because if no error is thrown, that err variable contains the banner of the sensor it's logging in to, so I don't really have a way to reliably check if err actually has a value or not (If that makes sense). I'm also checking error codes in case a file is not found or some other error is tossed. Is there a better method?
This is the currently working code:
sp = Popen(['scp', '#'.join([self.user, self.sensor]) + ':{0}{1}'.format(self.binPath, self.binName), self.storePath], stdout = PIPE, stderr = PIPE)
data, error = sp.communicate()
if error.startswith("ssh"):
print("ERROR: {}".format(error))
else:
if sp.returncode == 1:
print("ERROR: {} - No such file or directory".format(self.binPath + self.binName))
elif sp.returncode == 0:
self.hashCMP(self.storePath, self.binName, md5Sum)
else:
pass
Would one way around this be to create a test for the domain? For example using something like:
from socket import getaddrinfo
result = getaddrinfo("www.google.com", None)
print result[0][4]
I notice you are using popen - if your OS has nc (netcat) could you maybe run the command:
nc -v <host> <port> #I believe this uses the getaddrinfo under the hood as well ;-)
Thanks,
//P
Flow of the program is:
Connect to OpenSSH server on Linux machine using Paramiko library
Open X11 session
Run xterm executable
Run some other program (e.g. Firefox) by typing executable name in the terminal and running it.
I would be grateful if someone can explain how to cause some executable to run in a terminal which was open by using the following code and provide sample source code (source):
import select
import sys
import paramiko
import Xlib.support.connect as xlib_connect
import os
import socket
import subprocess
# run xming
XmingProc = subprocess.Popen("C:/Program Files (x86)/Xming/Xming.exe :0 -clipboard -multiwindow")
ssh_client = paramiko.SSHClient()
ssh_client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
ssh_client.connect(SSHServerIP, SSHServerPort, username=user, password=pwd)
transport = ssh_client.get_transport()
channelOppositeEdges = {}
local_x11_display = xlib_connect.get_display(os.environ['DISPLAY'])
inputSockets = []
def x11_handler(channel, (src_addr, src_port)):
local_x11_socket = xlib_connect.get_socket(*local_x11_display[:3])
inputSockets.append(local_x11_socket)
inputSockets.append(channel)
channelOppositeEdges[local_x11_socket.fileno()] = channel
channelOppositeEdges[channel.fileno()] = local_x11_socket
transport._queue_incoming_channel(channel)
session = transport.open_session()
inputSockets.append(session)
session.request_x11(handler = x11_handler)
session.exec_command('xterm')
transport.accept()
while not session.exit_status_ready():
readable, writable, exceptional = select.select(inputSockets,[],[])
if len(transport.server_accepts) > 0:
transport.accept()
for sock in readable:
if sock is session:
while session.recv_ready():
sys.stdout.write(session.recv(4096))
while session.recv_stderr_ready():
sys.stderr.write(session.recv_stderr(4096))
else:
try:
data = sock.recv(4096)
counterPartSocket = channelOppositeEdges[sock.fileno()]
counterPartSocket.sendall(data)
except socket.error:
inputSockets.remove(sock)
inputSockets.remove(counterPartSocket)
del channelOppositeEdges[sock.fileno()]
del channelOppositeEdges[counterPartSocket.fileno()]
sock.close()
counterPartSocket.close()
print 'Exit status:', session.recv_exit_status()
while session.recv_ready():
sys.stdout.write(session.recv(4096))
while session.recv_stderr_ready():
sys.stdout.write(session.recv_stderr(4096))
session.close()
XmingProc.terminate()
XmingProc.wait()
I was thinking about running the program in child thread, while the thread running the xterm is waiting for the child to terminate.
Well, this is a bit of a hack, but hey.
What you can do on the remote end is the following: Inside the xterm, you run netcat, listen to any data coming in on some port, and pipe whatever you get into bash. It's not quite the same as typing it into xterm direclty, but it's almost as good as typing it into bash directly, so I hope it'll get you a bit closer to your goal. If you really want to interact with xterm directly, you might want to read this.
For example:
terminal 1:
% nc -l 3333 | bash
terminal 2 (type echo hi here):
% nc localhost 3333
echo hi
Now you should see hi pop out of the first terminal. Now try it with xterm&. It worked for me.
Here's how you can automate this in Python. You may want to add some code that enables the server to tell the client when it's ready, rather than using the silly time.sleeps.

s.connect((SSHServerIP, NETCAT_PORT))
s.send("echo \"Hello there! Are you watching?\"\n")

XmingProc.terminate()
XmingProc.wait()
I tested this on a Mac, so I commented out the XmingProc bits and used /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox as FIREFOX_CMD (and xclock).
The above isn't exactly a secure setup, as anyone connecting to the port at the right time could run arbitrary code on your remote server, but it sounds like you're planning to use this for testing purposes anyway. If you want to improve the security, you could make netcat bind to 127.0.0.1 rather than 0.0.0.0, setup an ssh tunnel (run ssh -L3333:localhost:3333 username#remote-host.com to tunnel all traffic received locally on port 3333 to remote-host.com:3333), and let Python connect to ("localhost", 3333).
Now you can combine this with selenium for browser automation:
Follow the instructions from this page, i.e. download the selenium standalone server jar file, put it into /path/to/some/place (on the server), and pip install -U selenium (again, on the server).
Next, put the following code into selenium-example.py in /path/to/some/place:
#!/usr/bin/env python
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.common.exceptions import NoSuchElementException
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time
browser = webdriver.Firefox() # Get local session of firefox
browser.get("http://www.yahoo.com") # Load page
assert "Yahoo" in browser.title
elem = browser.find_element_by_name("p") # Find the query box
elem.send_keys("seleniumhq" + Keys.RETURN)
time.sleep(0.2) # Let the page load, will be added to the API
try:
browser.find_element_by_xpath("//a[contains(#href,'http://docs.seleniumhq.org')]")
except NoSuchElementException:
assert 0, "can't find seleniumhq"
browser.close()
and change the firefox command:
FIREFOX_CMD="cd /path/to/some/place && python selenium-example.py"
And watch firefox do a Yahoo search. You might also want to increase the time.sleep.
If you want to run more programs, you can do things like this before or after running firefox:
# start up xclock, wait for some time to pass, kill it.
s.send("xclock&\n")
time.sleep(1)
s.send("XCLOCK_PID=$!\n") # stash away the process id (into a bash variable)
time.sleep(30)
s.send("echo \"killing $XCLOCK_PID\"\n")
s.send("kill $XCLOCK_PID\n\n")
time.sleep(5)
If you want to do perform general X11 application control, I think you might need to write similar "driver applications", albeit using different libraries. You might want search for "x11 send {mouse|keyboard} events" to find more general approaches. That brings up these questions, but I'm sure there's lots more.
If the remote end isn't responding instantaneously, you might want to sniff your network traffic in Wireshark, and check whether or not TCP is batching up the data, rather than sending it line by line (the \n seems to help here, but I guess there's no guarantee). If this is the case, you might be out of luck, but nothing is impossible. I hope you don't need to go that far though ;-)
One more note: if you need to communicate with CLI programs' STDIN/STDOUT, you might want to look at expect scripting (e.g. using pexpect, or for simple cases you might be able to use subprocess.Popen.communicate](http://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.Popen.communicate)).
I am using ssh to log into a camera, scp a tarball over to it and extract files from the tarbal and then run the script. I am having problems with Pexpect, though. Pexpect times out when the tarball is being copied over. It seem's not to wait until it is done. And then it start's doing the same thing with the untar command, The code I have is below:
ssh_newkey = 'Are you sure you want to continue connecting'
copy = pexpect.spawn('ssh service#10.10.10.10')
i=copy.expect([ssh_newkey,'password:',pexpect.EOF])
if i==0:
copy.sendline('yes')
i=copy.expect([ssh_newkey,'password:',pexpect.EOF])
if i==1:
copy.sendline("service")
print 'Password Accepted'
copy.expect('service#user:')
copy.sendline('su - root')
i=copy.expect('Password:')
copy.sendline('root')
i=copy.expect('#')
copy.sendline('cd /tmp')
i=copy.expect("#")
copy.sendline('scp user#20.20.20.20:/home/user/tarfile.tar.gz .')
i=copy.expect([ssh_newkey,'password:',pexpect.EOF])
if i==0:
copy.sendline('yes')
i=copy.expect([ssh_newkey,'password:',pexpect.EOF])
else:
pass
copy.sendline('userpwd')
i=copy.expect('#')
copy.sendline('tar -zxvf tarfile.tar.gz bin/installer.sh')
i=copy.expect("#")
copy.sendline("setsid /tmp/bin/installer.sh /tmp/tarfile.tar.gz > /dev/null 2>&1 &")
elif i==2:
print "I either got key or connection timeout"
else:
pass
Can anyone help find a solution for this?
Thanks
I'm not sure if this is correct, but I'd try setting the timeout to None:
copy = pexpect.spawn('ssh service#10.10.10.10', timeout=None)
According to the source code, pexpect seems to not check the timeout when it's set to None.
Anyway, the reason I'm answering this even though I'm not sure whether it solves your problem is that I wanted to recommend using paramiko instead. I had good experience using it for communication over SSH in the past.
Is there a reason your using pexpect or even paramiko?
if you setup a public/private key then you can just use as a single example:
command = "scp user#20.20.20.20:/home/user/tarfile.tar.gz"
split_command = shlex.split(command)
subprocess.call(split_command)
Then as per the suggestion above use paramiko to send commands.
you can use the keyfile for that as well:
The following class method will give you a persistent session (although it is untested):
