if len(sys.argv) != 7:
    print 'error param'
    exit()

try:
    fn, host, port, account, password, dest, src = sys.argv

    transport = paramiko.Transport((host, int(port)))
    transport.connect(username=account, password=password)
    sftp = paramiko.SFTPClient.from_transport(transport)

    arr = dest.split('/')
    if len(arr) > 1:
        dir = '/'.join(arr[0:len(arr)-1])
        sftp.mkdir(dir)
        sftp.chdir(dir)
        sftp.put(src, '/'.join(arr[len(arr)-1:]))
    else:
        sftp.put(src, dest)
    sftp.close()
