ShellFamily enum

The command-language family of a node's interactive shell.

The interactive connect/resume loop drives the remote shell with a prompt-completion marker and a command wrapper whose syntax depends on the shell: a POSIX shell (/bin/sh, bash, including Git Bash/WSL on Windows), Windows PowerShell, or cmd.exe. The node reports which family it launched so the client emits the matching dialect (see ShellDialect).

Static Methods

fromWire(String? value) → ShellFamily

Decodes a wire token, defaulting to posix for unknown/absent values so older peers (which never send the field) are treated as POSIX.

Constants

values → const List<ShellFamily>

A constant List of the values in this enum, in order of their declaration.
