About ssh_MATLAB

The package provided here attempts to create a link between the localhost and a remote machine like Raspberry Pi or Intel Edison etc.

Once the setup is done, you can give the following command in the MATLAB terminal:-

sshfrommatlab(user_name, host_name, password)

Usage/Setup

Clone/Download the repository into your local machine with MATLAB installed, preferably R2013b (v7.9) or greater

Open MATLAB and change your directory to the place where you cloned this repo.

Open sshfrommatlabinstall.m and run it. It should run without any errors and give a clean install of the Java Secure Shell library.

Now set user_name, host_name and password as per your requirements. In my case it was:-

user_name = 'pi'

host_name = '192.1681.120'

password = 'q'

Now run the following command as metioned earlier:-

`sshfrommatlab(user_name, host_name, password)`

If everything works fine, you should see a valid JavaConnection Object as your answer.

Use:-

sshfrommatlabissue(channel, command)

to issue commands (as strings) to the remote host via the secure shell.

In order to initiate file transfer between MATLAB and the remote host, you should give the following commands:

For sending files to the remote host from MATLAB issue:-

sftpfrommatlab(user_name, host_name, password, local_file_name, remote_file_name)

local___file___name is the COMPLETE address to the file in your system that you want to send to the remote host.

Example ('C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2016a\bin\text.txt') for Windows or ('/home/yourUSERname/python.txt') for Linux

remote___file___name is the COMPLETE address to the file in your remote host where you want it to be stored.

Example ('/home/pi/python.txt') for R-Pi

For sending files from the remote host to MATLAB issue:-

scptomatlab(user_name, host_name, password, local_file_name, remote_file_name)

local___file___name is the COMPLETE address to the file in your system where you want to store the incoming file from the remote host.

Example ('C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2016a\bin\text.txt') for Windows or ('/home/yourUSERname/python.txt') for Linux

remote___file___name is the COMPLETE address to the file in your remote host which you want to be copied to the local host.

Example ('/home/pi/python.txt') for R-Pi
