How to write SFTP client using Apache MINA library

Question

I tried finding Java code for SFTP client using Apache MINA library but couldn't find it.

Could someone show me how to write a simple password authentication based SFTP client using Apache MINA library.

If you are unlucky finding Apache MINA examples, and you are allowed to use any other library, perhaps you could try [Jsch](http://www.jcraft.com/jsch/). You can find several examples here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14617/how-to-retrieve-a-file-from-a-server-via-sftp — aaguilera, Mar 13 '19 at 08:48

Based on the examples in the README.md in the root of apache-sshd-2.2.0-src package:

SshClient client = SshClient.setupDefaultClient();
// override any default configuration...
client.setSomeConfiguration(...);
client.setOtherConfiguration(...);
client.start();

try (ClientSession session = client.connect(user, host, port).verify(timeout).getSession()) {
    session.addPasswordIdentity(password);
    session.auth.verify(timeout);

    // User-specific factory
    try (SftpClient sftp = DefaultSftpClientFactory.INSTANCE.createSftpClient(session)) {
        // use sftp here
    }
}
