<?php

class Test extends CI_Controller
{
  public function deploy_test() {
      $connection = ssh2_connect("123.45.67.890", 23);
  
      if(!$connection) {
         echo json_encode('Connection failed');
      }
  
      ssh2_auth_password($connection, "username", "password");
      $stream = ssh2_exec($connection, "ls -l");
      stream_get_blocking($stream, true);
      $output = "";
      while($line = fgets($stream)) {
          $output .= $line;
      }
      echo json_encode($line);
  }
}

you have a typo on "stream_set_blocking "
