Module Hierarchy

• paramiko: Paramiko (a combination of the esperanto words for "paranoid" and "friend") is a module for python 2.3 or greater that implements the SSH2 protocol for secure (encrypted and authenticated) connections to remote machines.
  • paramiko.agent: SSH Agent interface for Unix clients.
  • paramiko.auth_handler: AuthHandler
  • paramiko.ber
  • paramiko.buffered_pipe: Attempt to generalize the "feeder" part of a Channel: an object which can be read from and closed, but is reading from a buffer fed by another thread.
  • paramiko.channel: Abstraction for an SSH2 channel.
  • paramiko.client: SSHClient.
  • paramiko.common: Common constants and global variables.
  • paramiko.compress: Compression implementations for a Transport.
  • paramiko.config: SSHConfig.
  • paramiko.dsskey: DSSKey
  • paramiko.file: BufferedFile.
  • paramiko.hostkeys: HostKeys
  • paramiko.kex_gex: Variant on KexGroup1 where the prime "p" and generator "g" are provided by the server.
  • paramiko.kex_group1: Standard SSH key exchange ("kex" if you wanna sound cool).
  • paramiko.logging22: Stub out logging on python < 2.3.
  • paramiko.message: Implementation of an SSH2 "message".
  • paramiko.packet: Packetizer.
  • paramiko.pipe: Abstraction of a one-way pipe where the read end can be used in select().
  • paramiko.pkey: Common API for all public keys.
  • paramiko.primes: Utility functions for dealing with primes.
  • paramiko.resource: Resource manager.
  • paramiko.rsakey: RSAKey
  • paramiko.server: ServerInterface is an interface to override for server support.
  • paramiko.sftp
  • paramiko.sftp_attr
  • paramiko.sftp_client: Client-mode SFTP support.
  • paramiko.sftp_file: SFTPFile
  • paramiko.sftp_handle: Abstraction of an SFTP file handle (for server mode).
  • paramiko.sftp_server: Server-mode SFTP support.
  • paramiko.sftp_si: SFTPServerInterface is an interface to override for SFTP server support.
  • paramiko.ssh_exception: Exceptions defined by paramiko.
  • paramiko.transport: Transport handles the core SSH2 protocol.
  • paramiko.util: Useful functions used by the rest of paramiko.
  • paramiko.win_pageant: Functions for communicating with Pageant, the basic windows ssh agent program.
