I'm looking for a way to set a timeout for this:
transport = paramiko.Transport((host, port)) transport.connect(username = username, password = password) sftp = paramiko.SFTPClient.from_transport(transport) sftp.get(remotepath, localpath) sftp.close() transport.close()
The connection timeout can be set with the timeout parameter (that indicated the number of seconds for the time out as described here) of the connect function. @kukosk It would help if you mentioned the unit in which timeout is to be given, I guess its seconds. Note that timeout parameter sets TCP timeout.
banner_timeout - an optional timeout (in seconds) to wait for the SSH banner to be presented. timeout - an optional timeout (in seconds) for the TCP connect. auth_timeout - an optional timeout (in seconds) to wait for an authentication response.
SSH client & key policies class paramiko.client. SSHClient. A high-level representation of a session with an SSH server. This class wraps Transport , Channel , and SFTPClient to take care of most aspects of authenticating and opening channels.
A Paramiko SSH Example: Connect to Your Server Using a Password. This section shows you how to authenticate to a remote server with a username and password. To begin, create a new file named first_experiment.py and add the contents of the example file. Ensure that you update the file with your own Linode's details.
The connection timeout can be set with the timeout
parameter (that indicated the number of seconds for the time out as described here) of the connect
function.
ssh = paramiko.SSHClient() ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy()) ssh.connect(host, username=username, password=password, timeout=10) sftp = ssh.open_sftp() sftp.get(remotepath, localpath) sftp.close()
