I have to generate and put some files on WinSCP using java program. For connecting to box (with WinSCP), I use following credentials:
host name:
username:
port:
private key file:
I searched through How to retrieve a file from a server via SFTP? and found below code:
import com.jcraft.jsch.*;
public class TestJSch
{
public static void main(String args[]) {
JSch jsch = new JSch();
Session session = null;`enter code here`
try {
session = jsch.getSession("username", "127.0.0.1", 22);
session.setConfig("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
session.setPassword("password");
session.connect();
Channel channel = session.openChannel("sftp");
channel.connect();
ChannelSftp sftpChannel = (ChannelSftp) channel;
sftpChannel.get("remotefile.txt", "localfile.txt");
sftpChannel.exit();
session.disconnect();
} catch (JSchException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SftpException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
All these codes are using password whereas I don't have password but a private key file.Can anybody help me to know how can I connect to server using a private key file only?
