A simple interface to SFTP. The module offers high level abstractions and task based routines to handle your SFTP needs. Checkout the Cook Book, in the docs, to see what pysftp can do for you.

import pysftp

with pysftp.Connection('hostname', username='me', password='secret') as sftp:
    with sftp.cd('public'):             # temporarily chdir to public
        sftp.put('/my/local/filename')  # upload file to public/ on remote
        sftp.get('remote_file')         # get a remote file
