#Paramiko 4.0 is out

https://www.paramiko.org/changelog.html#4.0.0

https://pypi.org/project/paramiko/4.0.0/

Arguably a negative release of everybody's favorite, if slightly long in the tooth, #Python SSH implementation:

- removed functionality (DSA)
- removed Python interpreter support (Python 3.9 is the new MSV)
- added instability (overhauled packaging practices)

but hey! it took quite a while anyways…

Is also prep for some other security-focused shenanigans coming down the pipe, so stay tuned.

TIL: According to the ssh_config man page, comments in ~/.ssh/config need to be on their own line. In other words,

Host foo # my awesome host

is not a valid comment.

The ssh command seems pretty relaxed about this, but other tools (e.g. Paramiko) are not necessarily.

https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/issues/2111

I see #OpenSSH got to fully removing DSA key support, so that means my “probably do that in #Paramiko” todo list item has no more excuses

Well, ok, it still has a few excuses (will be years before the average sshd is OpenSSH 10.0+) but still. Needs happenin' sometime and it ain't like old releases go away, so.

#Paramiko 3.5 is out, with AES-GCM cipher support https://www.paramiko.org/changelog.html#3.5.0 #SSH #Python #hashtags

Mal eine Frage an die #python Spezialisten.

Also ich bin auf der Suche nach einer "#einfachen" Lösung womit ich ohne #Subprocess Ordner mit möglichen Unterordner von einem #Remote Server auf dem lokalen Server auf dem auch das Skript läuft zu kopieren.

Wichtig es sind nicht nur Dateien sondern Ordner mit Unterordner.
Hierzu habe ich schon #Paramiko ausprobiert komme da aber nicht auf eine einfache Lösung und irgendwas vergisst er dann immer.
Des weiteren hab ich versucht mit #pyrsync zu kopieren - aber entweder hab ich Tomaten auf den Augen - jedenfalls finde ich keine Sync Funktion dazu.

Hat hier noch jemand eine andere Idee

Excited to share my latest project, Hacker News Over SSH!

Dive into your favorite tech stories directly from your terminal. This custom SSH server lets you browse Hacker News articles and comments interactively, offering a streamlined, text-based browsing experience.

Demo:
$ ssh hn.parishod.com

Source code: https://github.com/adeekshith/hn-over-ssh

Inspired by a recent project where they setup a coffee shop accessible only via SSH. I liked the idea to have more apps like this accessible via the terminal so built this. Built using #Python, #Paramiko

Also, I'm currently exploring new opportunities. Know of any openings or consulting work? Let's connect!

#til want to run a single #linux app remotely? #xpra needs to be installed both in client and server. can use either #ssh or #paramiko. if for some reason it can't connect, you can run `xpra start --bind-tcp localhost:port` on the server, use ssh's `LocalForward` option, ssh into the server, and then `xpra start tcp://localhost:port/` on the client. If it complains about keyboard bindings, try `--keyboard-layout=LAYOUT`. In my case it got confused between the local us_intl and the remote azerty.

I know and Paramiko. That said, I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a pure python #SSH client library (without native dependencies). I ask for pure #Python because I'm looking at compiling something for multiple platforms. I'm assuming one must exist. It seems like Nuitka may work with #Paramiko , but I'd love to find something that could work with other compilers & Python implementations.

Playing with #Python #paramiko to upload via #SFTP some files:

#Python #paramiko zdaje się podążać zasadą: jeśli istnieje zagmatwana paczka, która rozwiązuje jakiś trywialny problem, musimy koniecznie jej użyć. Dodatkowe punkty, jeśli zamiast użyć jej bezpośrednio będziemy importować wersję włączoną w inną ciężką zależność.

https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/blob/162213fa1a4551bd955134c97ca5276a5f29e907/tests/conftest.py#L7

Pusta klasa działa równie dobrze (a "dataclass" byłoby poprawnym rozwiązaniem):

https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/dev-python/paramiko/files/paramiko-3.2.0-nih-test-deps.patch?id=580240beb0451c74ebde79904f3bec0b7f907287#n108

#Python #paramiko development is like: if there's a complex and convoluted third-party package solving a trivial problem, we must use it! Extra points if instead of using it directly we use the version bundled in another convoluted package. Sigh.

Protip: an empty class works as well (and a dataclass would be the correct solution):

#Fabric 3.1 / #Paramiko 3.2 out now, after months of hacking, rewriting, cursing ancient design decisions that don't work w/ non-OpenSSH targets, & so on & so forth.

Most of this is opt-in, experimental, and incomplete - but hey, it works well enough that my colleagues can get their ssh-agents and passphraseless pubkeys working with both #OpenSSH and #Teleport!

Solid foundation, living room furnished…rest of house forthcoming

https://www.fabfile.org/changelog.html#3.1.0
https://www.paramiko.org/changelog.html#3.2.0

Trying out some #Python #SFTP with #paramiko ... as Shiffman used to say "I'm not qualified for any of this" (or something to the effect)

import paramiko

with paramiko.SSHClient() as ssh:
ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
ssh.connect(host, username=username, password=password)

with ssh.open_sftp() as sftp:
sftp.chdir(remote_dir)
sftp.put(local_file, remote_filename)

Got to a good place with my ongoing #Paramiko (#Fabric #Python #SSH etc) work* great way to end the week!

Also weedwhacked the absolute shit out of a lawnfull of dandelions this afternoon.

It is time for some well-earned (#Akashi white label #whisky) and (#Hapkido starting Angela Mao, aka "Lady #KungFu”).

* For those interested in Protocol Bullshit and/or Software Architecture Bullshit, see https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/issues/23#issuecomment-1516536336 and subsequent comment(s).

Finally getting a few #Fabric / #Paramiko #Python somewheres.

1. New PKey property spits out proper SHA256 fingerprint so you can compare to`ssh` logs or `ssh-add -l`

2. New auth PoC works enough to try multiple auth sources in any order, & logging more obviously than the old code did (first 3 lines of screenshot)

3. …and that flow yields a useful result, which also has a useful __str__ (last 2 lines of screenshot). Maps the auth source to the resulting exception or server response.

Any #paramiko likers out there, I'm going to merge https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/pull/2166 by this Friday at the latest (unless something real nasty shows up).

If you've got more time than sense and want to trawl through looking for serious issues, I'm listening!
