  • paramiko.file.BufferedFile: Reusable base class to implement Python-style file buffering around a simpler stream.
  • paramiko.buffered_pipe.BufferedPipe: A buffer that obeys normal read (with timeout) & close semantics for a file or socket, but is fed data from another thread.

  • paramiko.config.LazyFqdn: Returns the host's fqdn on request as string.
  • paramiko._winapi.MemoryMap: A memory map object which can have security attributes overrideden.
  • paramiko.message.Message: An SSH2 message is a stream of bytes that encodes some combination of strings, integers, bools, and infinite-precision integers (known in Python as longs).
  • paramiko.client.MissingHostKeyPolicy: Interface for defining the policy that `.SSHClient` should use when the SSH server's hostname is not in either the system host keys or the application's keys.
  • paramiko.primes.ModulusPack: convenience object for holding the contents of the /etc/ssh/moduli file, on systems that have such a file.
  • paramiko.pipe.OrPipe
  • paramiko.util.PFilter
  • paramiko.pkey.PKey: Base class for public keys.
  • paramiko.packet.Packetizer: Implementation of the base SSH packet protocol.
  • paramiko.win_pageant.PageantConnection: Mock "connection" to an agent which roughly approximates the behavior of a unix local-domain socket (as used by Agent).
  • paramiko.pipe.PosixPipe
  • paramiko.proxy.ProxyCommand: Wraps a subprocess running ProxyCommand-driven programs.
  • paramiko.sftp_attr.SFTPAttributes: Representation of the attributes of a file (or proxied file) for SFTP in client or server mode.
  • paramiko.sftp_handle.SFTPHandle: Abstract object representing a handle to an open file (or folder) in an SFTP server implementation.
  • paramiko.sftp_si.SFTPServerInterface: This class defines an interface for controlling the behavior of paramiko when using the `.SFTPServer` subsystem to provide an SFTP server.
  • paramiko.client.SSHClient: A high-level representation of a session with an SSH server.
  • paramiko.config.SSHConfig: Representation of config information as stored in the format used by OpenSSH.
  • paramiko.transport.SecurityOptions: Simple object containing the security preferences of an ssh transport.
  • paramiko.server.ServerInterface: This class defines an interface for controlling the behavior of Paramiko in server mode.
  • paramiko.pipe.WindowsPipe: On Windows, only an OS-level "WinSock" may be used in select(), but reads and writes must be to the actual socket object.
  • paramiko.compress.ZlibCompressor
  • paramiko.compress.ZlibDecompressor
  • basestring: Type basestring cannot be instantiated; it is the base for str and unicode.
    • str: str(object='') -> string
  • int: int(x=0) -> int or long int(x, base=10) -> int or long
    • paramiko.py3compat.long
