Python, paramiko, invoke_shell and ugly characters

问题

When I run the Python code below:

import workflow
import console
import paramiko
import time

strComputer = 'server.com'
strUser = 'user'
strPwd = 'passwd'

client = paramiko.SSHClient()
client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
client.connect(hostname=strComputer, username=strUser, password=strPwd)

channel = client.invoke_shell()
channel.send('ls\n')
time.sleep(3)
output=channel.recv(2024)
print(output)

#Close the connection
client.close()
print('Connection closed.')

I get the desired output mixed with ugly characters:

Can anyone explain me what is going on, and how to get a pretty output instead? Thanks

回答1:

those are terminal color codes used by ls to highlight directories, executable files etc. you can call /bin/ls (or, on some distributions, ls --color=never) explicitly to avoid calling aliases etc. and get un-colored output.

the colors are defined using those cryptic codes like [0m[01;34m. here's how the terminal looks like when ls coloring is enabled:
