Purpose

A plugin for StashHouse to include a Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) and Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) server without authentication.

Registers a plugin named ssh and provides a --ssh.port argument to configure the port to listen on.

Usage

This package is a plugin for StashHouse. To install the program:

python3 -m pip install stashhouse[ssh]

The following command-line arguments are available:

--ssh.port: The port to start the SCP/SFTP server on
--ssh.host-key-file: The host key file to use.
--ssh.disable-host-key-save: Disables saving a new host key file if one does not exist.

For example, to start the SCP/SFTP server on port 2222 and use the SSH host key file at ssh-host-key, generating it if it does not exist:

stashhouse -e ssh --ssh.port 2222 --ssh.host-key-file ssh-host-key

Security

By default, this plugin should not be deployed in an internet-facing manner to prevent unwanted file uploads. Always deploy it with appropriate security restrictions such as, but not exclusively, firewall rules.
