Jcabi Ssh Save

More details are here: ssh.jcabi.com.

Also, read this blog post: Simple Java SSH Client.

It is a convenient SSH client for Java:

import com.jcabi.ssh.Shell;
import com.jcabi.ssh.Ssh;
Shell shell = new Ssh("example.com", 22, "username", "key...");
String stdout = new Shell.Plain(shell).exec("echo 'Hello, world!'");

The key here is your private SSH key, usually the one you have in ~/.ssh/id_rsa.

There is also a convenient SSHD class, a runner of ssh daemon, for unit testing:

try (Sshd sshd = new Sshd()) {
  String uptime = new Shell.Plain(
    Ssh(sshd.host(), sshd.login(), sshd.port(), sshd.key())
  ).exec("uptime");
}

Version 1.6 works under Java 1.8+. If your Java version is ealier, use version 1.5.2.
