Laravel - returning SSH output - php

Question

Thanks for interest to this topic. I'm pretty new in Laravel and i have a little question. Maybe it's easy!
I have an SSH module in my Laravel that works this way:
The user fills the textarea element with Linux commands.
The command is passed with Ajax to a method called getExecute() located in the 'controllers' folder
I would like that this method returns me the full response of my SSH server, but this isn't happening. The only thing that the method returns is a blank space.
For example: I pass the command 'ls -la', and my response is all folders that the Linux find, like on terminal.
Can someone help me please?
Here is my code:
public function getExecute()
{
if(\Request::ajax()):
$ssh_command = \Input::get('ssh_command');
$ssh_response = null;
\SSH::run($ssh_command, function($line)
{
return $line.PHP_EOL;
});
endif;
}
OBS: The Ajax connection was tested and it's ok!
Thank you!

Finally solved! Solution below:
First i've created a variable called $output in my class.
private $output;
Then i modified my method to this:
public function postExecute()
{
$ssh_command = \Input::get('ssh_command');
$ssh_response = \SSH::run($ssh_command, function($line)
{
$this->output = $line.PHP_EOL;
});
return $this->output;
}
My method is not more Ajax, but i hope that all that i have to do is rollback to my ajax method like before.Thanks for all!
