scp client, for use with paramiko.

Project description

A library that implements the client side of the scp (Secure Copy) protocol. It is designed to be used with paramiko (http://www.lag.net/paramiko/).

Writing files

Example:

with closing(Write(ssh_client.get_transport(), '.')) as scp:
    scp.send_file('file.txt', True)
    scp.send_file('../../test.log', remote_filename='baz.log')

    s = StringIO('this is a test')
    scp.send(s, 'test', '0601', len(s.getvalue()))

Writing directories

Example:

with closing(WriteDir(ssh_client.get_transport(), 'subdir')) as scp:
    scp.send_dir('../../manuals', preserve_times=True, progress=progress)

Reading files

Example:

with closing(ReadDir(ssh_client.get_transport(), '.')) as scp:
    scp.receive_dir('foo', preserve_times=True)

Reading directories

Example:

with closing(Read(ssh_client.get_transport(), '.')) as scp:
    scp.receive('file.txt')

Change log

0.2 2011-10-31 Eric V. Smith

  • Removed useless tests.

  • Fixed embarassing last minute typo which broke the code.

  • Included trivial examples in README.txt. Needs much work.

  • Forbid files that contain ‘..’ in the filename. This is an attempt to prevent path traversal. This approach is simplistic, but it’s a reasonable first step and gets the job done.

0.1 2011-10-31 Eric V. Smith

  • Initial release.
