How do use paramiko.RSAKey.from_private_key()?

Question

Any idea how I can use the paramiko.RSAKey.from_private_key() function?

I know there is a from_private_key_file(), but I\'m interested in us

Answer 1

Lev's method worked for me:

>>> import paramiko
>>> f = open('/path/to/key.pem','r')
>>> s = f.read()
>>> import StringIO
>>> keyfile = StringIO.StringIO(s)
>>> mykey = paramiko.RSAKey.from_private_key(keyfile)
>>> ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
>>> ssh.connect('myserver.compute-1.amazonaws.com', username='ubuntu', pkey=mykey)
>>> stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command('uptime')
>>> stdout.readlines()
