text: py.test plugin to locally test sftp server connections.
  Project description
  pytest-sftpserver is a plugin for pytest that provides a local SFTP-Server fixture.
  The SFTP-Server provided by this fixture serves content not from files but directly from Python objects.
  Quickstart
  Assume you want to test a function that downloads a file from an SFTP-Server:
  from contextlib import closing import paramiko def get_sftp_file(host, port, username, password, path): with closing(paramiko.Transport((host, port))) as transport: transport.connect(username=username, password=password) with closing(paramiko.SFTPClient.from_transport(transport)) as sftpclient: with sftpclient.open(path, "r") as sftp_file: return sftp_file.read()
  This plugin allows to test such functions without having to spin up an external SFTP-Server by providing a pytest fixture called sftpserver. You use it simply by adding a parameter named sftpserver to your test function:
  def test_sftp_fetch(sftpserver): with sftpserver.serve_content({'a_dir': {'somefile.txt': "File content"}}): assert get_sftp_file(sftpserver.host, sftpserver.port, "user", "pw", "/a_dir/somefile.txt") == "File content"
  As can be seen from this example sftpserver serves content directly from python objects instead of files.

  Inspiration
  The implementation and idea for this plugin is in part based upon:
  - pytest-localserver
  - sftpserver
  - The Twisted Conch in 60 Seconds series (although I ended up not using twisted, this was very helpful understanding SFTP internals)
