I found a solution
step one: install the Paramiko library on the application server
(SERVER_ONE)
step two: import the paramiko library
step three: use the "putfo" method
here is an example
def file_upload():
import paramiko
form = FORM(
DIV(
INPUT(
_type = "file",
_name = "file",
)
),
DIV(
INPUT(
_type = "submit",
_value = "UPLOAD IMAGE"
)
),
_enctype="multipart/form-data",
)
if (form.process().accepted):
client = paramiko.SSHClient()
client.load_system_host_keys()
t = paramiko.Transport("www.server_two_url.com", 22)
t.connect(username = SERVER_TWO_LOGIN_STRING, password =
SERVER_TWO_PASSWORD_STRING) # for example:
t.connect(username = "root", password = "abc123")
sftp = paramiko.SFTPClient.from_transport(t)
sftp.putfo(form.vars.file.file, "/root/auden.jpg")
sftp.close()
t.close()
return dict(
form = form,
)
THAT WORKS FINE! (on SERVER_TWO server using WinSCP I go to the /root
folder on the VPS and there is the file)
