Connection sftp with password

[geannvalfre]

Hi Guys,

I have one .war file to deploy in one specific folder in my server.

I have the user, password and the server, but i couldn't configure it.

script: - pipe: atlassian/sftp-deploy:0.4.0 variables: USER: 'ec2-user' SERVER: '127.0.0.1' REMOTE_PATH: '/var/www/build/' LOCAL_PATH: 'build'

Could you please how to do this? I dont know where i have to put the password.

Hi @geannvalfre , the sftp-deploy pipe currently doesn't support authentication with password. You should use the public key authentication instead. This page shows how to configure ssh keys for pipelines: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/use-ssh-keys-in-bitbucket-pipelines-847452940.html. You can also pass your private key via the SSH_KEY pipe parameter. Hope that helps.

Hi @geannvalfre ,

for now, you can use the new version sftp-deploy:0.5.0 that supports alternative authentication with password.

Before use an alternative authentication with password (see Prerequisites section of the README) you should:

• add the known hosts in your Pipelines settings according to docs.
• setup parameter `PasswordAuthentication yes` in SSH client configuration files on your remote host.

script:
  - pipe: atlassian/sftp-deploy:0.5.0
    variables:
      USER: 'ec2-user'
      SERVER: '127.0.0.1'
      REMOTE_PATH: '/var/www/build/'
      LOCAL_PATH: 'build'
      PASSWORD: $PASSWORD

Cheers,

Alex
