[paramiko] paramiko + tarfile

[José Arthur Benetasso Villanova]

Hi all.

I'm trying to simulate the command 'tar -czf - . | ssh root at 172.16.0.2 tar
-xzf -' with paramiko.

Unfortunately,I'm missing something. Here my code:

###############################################################################
import tarfile
import paramiko


client = paramiko.SSHClient()
client.load_system_host_keys()
client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())

client.connect(
    '172.16.0.2',
    username='root',
    password='123456',
    timeout=60)
ssh_stdin, ssh_stdout, ssh_stderr = client.exec_command('tar -C /tmp/x -xzf
-')

tfile = tarfile.open(mode='w|gz', fileobj=ssh_stdin)
tfile.add('.')
tfile.close()
client.close()
###############################################################################

Sometimes, files doesn't appear on destination. I'm thinking the problem is
the flow control of ssh_stdin.

Does someone did a similar code? How can I control stdin to not loss data
(if it is a problem).

Thanks in advance.
