Hi! Thanks for writing scp; it's made my life a lot easier!

I am running into a problem with recursive gets that I think may be unicode related, but I'm not entirely sure. I'm running scp 0.10.2 on Python 2.7.6. In my code, I have:

scp.get(runtime_dir + "/*.txt", local_path=args.test_id)

Indeed, this works fine via scp on the command line (scp [email protected]:/home/ubuntu/testdir/module/*.txt .). However, when I try using the module, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./script.py", line 116, in <module>
    scp.get(runtime_dir + "/*.txt", local_path=args.test_id)
  File "/Users/patcable/Virtualenvs/osclient/lib/python2.7/site-packages/scp.py", line 198, in get
    self._recv_all()
  File "/Users/patcable/Virtualenvs/osclient/lib/python2.7/site-packages/scp.py", line 348, in _recv_all
    raise SCPException(asunicode(msg[1:]))
scp.SCPException: scp: /home/ubuntu/testdir/module/*.txt: No such file or directory

Am I missing something simple? It seems like this should work; for now I just work around by using os.subprocess, but figured it'd be neat if it worked in the module. In any case, thanks for your time!

I need to send file content directly to a remote name over SCP.

I currently use this module by first creating a temporary file with the content and then copying said file, but it would be much nicer if I could do away with the logic and just pass the data directly.

Assuming this is not impossible for some reason, would you accept patches to that end?

It is misleading when your tests fail on the Travis build because it no longer supports Python 2.6, which is depreciated now anyway.

This issue is very similar to #32. I actually found another similar scenario that throws an SCPException and breaks the process. This one is when you are copying a file to a destination that has a directory that is the same name as the file that you are copying. Here is an example where I try to recursively copy one directory to a remote device. In the local directory, there is a file gres-tp, and in the remote directory there already existed a directory gres-tp/, creating the following stack trace:

Traceback (most recent call last):23123123

scp.SCPException: scp: /var/tmp///gres-tp: Is a directory 

The recursion stops and any other files/folders are not copied. For completeness, here is an example of the scp command handling this:

$ scp -r ~/desktop-link/scp/tmp/* [email protected]:/var/tmp

._open() only check if channel is None and not if channel is closed. Hence if SCPException that closes the channel the ._open() method won't open it. Ref: Screenshot

This is not compatible with Python 3 because it mixes bytes and unicode (str).

I'd like to add two utility functions to the scp module -- get and put, something like;

def get(transport, remote_path, local_path='',
        recursive=False, preserve_times=False):
     return SCPClient(transport).get(...)

In many one-off use cases, creating an SCPClient object is more syntactic noise than necessary.

I'd be happy to work on patches if this sounds reasonable.

Im using the lib in a automatic testing scripts and notice that if send a config file via scp and using it immediately after (in my case, usinga api service that used this conf file) the OS dont notice the changes in file.
I solved this using a wait() after the scp finish

Is it possible to emulate the native scp command's handling for when it comes across a permission error on a file within a recursive transfer? For example, the operate user in these cases doesn't have access to the op-script.log file (only root has read access). The scp command handles permissions errors natively on mac OS X by just continuing with the next file:

$ scp -r [email protected]:/var/log ~/desktop-link/scp/
[email protected]'s password: 
utmp                                                                                  100%    0     0.0KB/s   00:00

Here is an implementation of the SCP module for python:

Traceback (most recent call last):s/nprintz/desktop-link/scp/log/log/pppoed_era_jpppoed_era_in_progress.log.2

scp.SCPException: scp: /var/log/op-script.log: Permission denied
T1351695717 0 1351695717 0

I removed the error catching for SCPException so you can see the stack trace. This implementation is trying to receive a directory from a Juniper device (which runs on FreeBSD).

I didn't know if this was a known limitation that can't be helped, or if there is a way to skip and continue on to the next file. Perhaps an optional parameter could be passed to get() and put() to allow for skipping permission error files, or throwing an SCPException if the implementation desires it?

https://bitbucket.org/pypa/pypi/issues/349/get-of-scpscpclient-not-accepting-wildcard

I recently upgraded the scp to 0.10.2 after years, and the get() no longer accept wildcard "*" to get all the files from a specific folder.

I have updated details there as well.

There is a put method that takes paths and a putfo method that takes a file object instead. On the other hand there is only a get method and no getfo method. Could it be added?

Obviously scp.get("File with spaces.mov") fails.

print('initializing ssh client')
    #initialize ssh client

        instance = ec2_resource.Instance(instance_id)
        ssh.connect(instance.public_ip_address, username='ubuntu', pkey=key)
        scp = SCPClient(ssh.get_transport())
        scp.put('cluster_ips.txt', 'flock.jar')
        scp.close()

no idea why it happened. the txt file went through alright, but the jar file was corrupted, different sums

How can i copy directory from a remote machine using scp.py??

It looks like the SCPClient context accepts a transport internally and then executes on a channel, but it doesn't appear to provide a mechanism for accessing the channel's return code.

    with scp.SCPClient(transport) as scp_transport:
        scp_transport.put(localpath, remotepath)

With the above code, the scp_transport.channel is None after put is executed and scp_transport does not contain the return code.

Proposal here is to capture return code information prior to running a self.close at the end of put. New code is below:

class SCPClient(object):
    """

    Raises SCPException for all transport related errors. Local filesystem
    and OS errors pass through.
    Main public methods are .put and .get
    The get method is controlled by the remote scp instance, and behaves
    accordingly. This means that symlinks are resolved, and the transfer is
    halted after too many levels of symlinks are detected.
    The put method uses os.walk for recursion, and sends files accordingly.
    Since scp doesn't support symlinks, we send file symlinks as the file
    (matching scp behaviour), but we make no attempt at symlinked directories.

Paramiko has a putfo method that allows uploading file-like objects.

Shall we add a similar method to this library as well? I need this feature to enable openwisp2 to push configurations to small routers that are not running an SFTP server by default. OpenWISP 2 generates the configuration directly in memory, it can write to disk, but we avoid that as much as possible because it wouldn't scale for thousands of devices.

I'm willing to put effort in adding this feature, I hope to hear back from you and receive some guidance about the best way to do it.

As a starter, I'm looking at the putfo method implementation in paramiko although I'm not sure it can be replicated when I look at the implementation of _send_files in scp.py.

Thanks for this -- it's useful! Would you be willing to package it and upload to pypi, so it can be installed & managed with standard tools?

This thing is great, except you cannot specify wildcards in get() ie, get("/var/log/messages*") will say that it doesn't exist, because it's looking for a literal single file named that. specifying a single file that exists, with the same code works great, so it looks to me like it's definitely a wildcarding issue. Is there a workaround, is this a bug, or is this not how the code is intended to be used and won't be fixed/changed?

Not sure what the best way to handle this is, but it seems like scp doesn't do it implicitly...

If I want to get a whole directory full of objects, but its parent directory name has a UUID appended to the known string, like:

scp /path/to/thing-I-know*/objects/

Is that a use case this module is intended to support? Or do I have to ssh in there first and try to figure out the directory name?

Hi,

I've been using this library for a little Python GUI client I've written for some of our depositors (I even managed to package it up into an executable for use on Windows, which was a real coup), and I'm generally very happy with it, but is there any way to make the transfer more resilient? A recursive directory transfer seems to be dying after around 64gb across a very fast local network. I know we're dealing with the limits of scp here, and it probably wouldn't be any easier to try to pack in an rsync or something, but if you have any ideas, I'd appreciate it!

I got an issue copying a .tar.gz from a server to local and afterwardy copying that .tar.gz to another server. It seems like get command is not blocking or returns before the whole file is copied, so in the next step a file which is not fully copied yet gets copied to another server, which results in having a corrupted file.
I guess directly copying between the remote machiens would work - still trying to figure out how.

Hi, thanks for this great package! I'm having an issue but I'm not sure if the problem is in scp or paramiko, perhaps you have some insight.

First, this works:

ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()
ssh.load_system_host_keys()
ssh.connect(hostname=HOST, username=USER, key_filename=KEY)
x = scp.SCPClient(ssh.get_transport())
with x as c:
    print(c)

But identical code where I have just moved the connection creation to a separate function doesn't work:

def get_client():
    ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()
    ssh.load_system_host_keys()
    ssh.connect(hostname=HOST, username=USER, key_filename=KEY)
    return scp.SCPClient(ssh.get_transport())
with get_client() as c:
    print(c)

I get the following error:

SSHException: SSH session not active

Am I doing something wrong here or is there a bug in scp or paramiko? Thanks for any help!

This PR (a57e683) was merged which updated the documentation according to that new code but a new package was never built.

Hello,

I've made some tests with OpenSSH and Dropbear, and it seems that filenames should not be escaped when sending files (*)

I wrote a test suite to test this behavior against different version of paramiko and it runs good without the "shquote", the shquote has the effect of adding unnecessary " ' ", your split(" ", 2) seems correct though

            self.assertTrue(os.path.isfile("./good ol' spaces #!${"))

Currently scp doesn't show the progress of a file transfer. It would be helpful if it can display the progress, especially in the context of large files

Local paths may be either PurePath or Path, while remote paths must be PurePath.

I'm debugging a few problems I have with this module, and if I understand correctly, if there's an exception in downloading or uploading files, you can't use the client object again. You get a "this channel is not open" error. If I'm not mistaken, that's because you try to reuse the dead channel instead of creating a new one. Could it be because you haven't put self.close() inside a finally clause?

Looks like py3 support was added. Could you update the release version?

Hello!
Thank you for this module. I noticed the transfer time can be quite slow (compared to command line scp). An order of magnitude or more slower. Is this an issue of the scp module or perhaps of the underlying paramiko/ssh settings?

Last update to PyPI is from May 2015, a PyPI update would be nice (especially for putfo)

os.utime is called with (path, (mtime, atime)), but the actual parameters should be (path, (atime, mtime)).

Current put() method executes "scp -t " on remote server and receives file then being sent via chan.sendall() over the channel.

I'm getting intermittent failures and I'd like to get verbose output from scp to help trace issue. I can manually change scp.py to execute "scp -v -t " however no idea where the stdout is being sent to ?

Any ideas ?

Hi,
this line https://github.com/jbardin/scp.py/blob/master/scp.py#L348 masks IOError exception when no file or directory exists, which makes it hard to catch the exception:

  File "/home/ngoldin/virtualenv/lago-venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/scp.py", line 198, in get

If I understand correctly, the docs state that all IOError errors should be thrown.

I want to scp a file(having a space in the file-name itself) from a remote machine. Here is the script which i use to scp a file.

import paramiko
from paramiko import SSHClient
from scp import SCPClient
ssh = SSHClient()
pkey = paramiko.RSAKey.from_private_key_file("/home/dummy/.ssh/id_rsa")
ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())

ssh.connect("example.com", username="root",pkey=pkey)
scp = SCPClient(ssh.get_transport())
filename='testing out'
scp.get(filename)

I am getting the following error
scp.SCPException: '\x01scp: testing: No such file or directory\n\x01scp: out: No such file or directory\n'

I have changed the scp.py script to match my criteria.

110,115c110
< remote_path=remote_path.replace(" "," ")
< remote_path='"'+remote_path+'"'
< print remote_path
< cmd = 'scp%s%s -f %s' % (rcsv, prsv, remote_path)
< print cmd
< self.channel.exec_command(cmd)

--- self.channel.exec_command('scp%s%s -f %s' % (rcsv, prsv, remote_path))

However,with this change the file is getting saved locally as "testing" instead of "testing out" file.

Digging through the code base I found the progress call back you can pass to the scpclient class. I found that pretty helpful and it would be a good thing to document in the readme.

Hello there,

Would you mind updating pypi. Thanks.

SCP'ing single file to Cisco Device fails in 0.7.0 but working fine in 0.5.1.

Error is: No such file or directory.

Hi,

I'm afraid I'm pretty confused by this one -- when calling scp.put with a remote path parameter specified, I'm getting a "got multiple values for keyword argument" error, which doesn't seem to make any sense:

scp.put(zipname, zipname, remote_path='./deposit_here')
TypeError: put() got multiple values for keyword argument 'remote_path'

I tried both ~/deposit_here and ./deposit_here and both are throwing the same issue. Anything dumb I'm missing? Thanks!

Hello,

I am facing issue during transfer of a file of size ~ 200MB. scp.put fails with below error:

Hi, not sure what this is about:

bag_dir_parent
'C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpxniltb'
remote_path
'~/deposit_here/324-444'
scp.put(bag_dir_parent, remote_path, recursive="True")

This is newest scp.py from pip, in Python 2.7.3. If you don't have any idea what's going on I can try to update Python version or duplicate in OSX/Linux later on...

Tested on 0.8.0 and 0.10.0 on OSX, python 3.4
