DefaultSftpSessionFactory using privateKey string


I am looking for a way to create DefaultSftpSessionFactory using private key string. The different functions available in this are using the private Key Resource(local file) instead.

Any ideas to create SessionFactory needed for SftpRemoteFileTemplate? I have the user, host and the private key as a String.

-Thanks


Solution

  • The setter takes a Resource...

    /**
     * Allows you to set a {@link Resource}, which represents the location of the
     * private key used for authenticating against the remote host. If the privateKey
     * is not provided, then the {@link DefaultSftpSessionFactory#setPassword(String) password}
     * property is mandatory (or {@link #setUserInfo(UserInfo) userInfo} that returns a
     * password.
     * @param privateKey The private key.
     * @see JSch#addIdentity(String)
     * @see JSch#addIdentity(String, String)
     */
    public void setPrivateKey(Resource privateKey) {
        this.privateKey = privateKey;
    }
    

    There are many kinds of Resource, including ByteArrayResource, where you can use

    setPrivateKey(new ByteArrayResource(myKeyString.getBytes());
