Dear everyone

I have a friend who needs help with something. Is anyone able to help her
out?

"I'm supposed to write a config app that reads from an sftp server. It's
supposed to drop and fetch files from it. Any idea on how to go about it?"

Any kind of help will be much appreciated. Thanks a lot for your help in
advance.

Regards
Jessica

I am still very new to Python, so I cannot really help with code so
much. However, to solve the problem, it is important to understand what
an sftp server is - it is simply an SSH server.

So, all that is needed is to use a Python SSH module (seems paramiko is
considered the best). Alternatively, there is also pysftp.

With this background info, I hope your friend can do it.

Thank You so Much.

I've used pysftp module and it worked wonders. I can list everything on the
server just have to work on how to put on something and retreave something.
Being file or folder. Thank you so much guys. Below is the code i've used.
Incase anyone has an idea on how I can go about dropping and fetching, I'll
appreciate it so much.

#code is down here

import pysftp

srv = pysftp.Connection(host="10.42.8.161",
username="omagano",password="omagano")
local_path = "C:/Users/Omagano Boom/Downloads/God is reason.jpg"
remote_path = "Omagano"

srv.put(local_path, remote_path)
srv.get(remote_path)


# Get the directory and file listing
data = srv.listdir()

# Closes the connection
srv.close()

# Prints out the directories and files, line by line
for i in data:
    print i


Regards.

Hi Oumagano,

I see there's a nice example of how to do that at the start of: 
https://pysftp.readthedocs.io/en/release_0.2.9/
