Creating an Executable File using Paramiko

Posted on July 7, 2022September 7, 2023 By Pythoneo

Paramiko is a Python library that provides support for SSH (Secure Shell) and SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol). With Paramiko, you can automate tasks on remote servers, transfer files securely, and even create executable files within folders and subfolders. This guide will walk you through the steps to accomplish this.

Create Executable Files

You can use the os library to navigate through directories and the echo command to create executable files.

# Define the base directory where you want to create executable files
base_dir = '/path/to/base/directory/'

# List of subfolders (if any)
subfolders = ['subfolder1', 'subfolder2']

# List of executable commands to be added to each file
executable_commands = [
    'echo "This is an executable file in the base directory" > base_executable.sh',
    'echo "This is an executable file in subfolder1" > subfolder1/sub_executable.sh',
    'echo "This is an executable file in subfolder2" > subfolder2/sub_executable.sh'
]

# Iterate through folders and create executable files
for folder in subfolders:
    try:
        os.mkdir(os.path.join(base_dir, folder))
        for command in executable_commands:
            ssh_client.exec_command(f'cd {base_dir}{folder} && {command}')
        print(f"Executable files created in {folder}.")
    except Exception as e:
        print("Error: ", str(e))

# Close the SSH connection
ssh_client.close()

This script assumes you have SSH access to the remote server and the necessary permissions to create files and directories. Ensure you replace the placeholders with your server details and customize the executable commands as needed for your use case.
