Command Execution

When you call Connection::execute() you are returned an ExecutionStream object, this object allows you to receive the command output in various ways. This is a single-use object, you cannot run additions commands on this object, you must call Connection::execute() again.

Receiving Stdout Only

$exec = $command->execute("...");
echo $exec->getOutput();    // will echo everything except stderr

Receiving Stdout & Stderr Separately

$exec = $command->execute("...");
$out = $exec->getSegmentedOutput();
echo $out['stdout'];    // the good
echo $out['stderr'];    // the bad

Receiving Stdout & Stderr Together

This can only be achieved by piping stderr to stdout -

$exec = $command->execute("... 2>&1");
echo $exec->getOutput();    // stderr inline with stdout
