= Net::SFTP
* http://net-ssh.rubyforge.org/sftp
== DESCRIPTION:
Net::SFTP is a pure-Ruby implementation of the SFTP protocol (specifically, versions 1 through 6 of the SFTP protocol). Note that this is the "Secure File Transfer Protocol", typically run over an SSH connection, and has nothing to do with the FTP protocol.
== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:
* Transfer files or even entire directory trees to or from a remote host via SFTP
* Completely supports all six protocol versions
* Asynchronous and synchronous operation
* Read and write files using an IO-like interface
== SYNOPSIS:
In a nutshell:
require 'net/sftp'
Net::SFTP.start('host', 'username', :password => 'password') do |sftp|
# upload a file or directory to the remote host
sftp.upload!("/path/to/local", "/path/to/remote")
# download a file or directory from the remote host
sftp.download!("/path/to/remote", "/path/to/local")
# grab data off the remote host directly to a buffer
data = sftp.download!("/path/to/remote")
# open and write to a pseudo-IO for a remote file
sftp.file.open("/path/to/remote", "w") do |f|
f.puts "Hello, world!\n"
end
# open and read from a pseudo-IO for a remote file
sftp.file.open("/path/to/remote", "r") do |f|
puts f.gets
end
# create a directory
sftp.mkdir! "/path/to/directory"
# list the entries in a directory
sftp.dir.foreach("/path/to/directory") do |entry|
puts entry.longname
end
end
For the full documentation, start with Net::SFTP::Session. Also see Net::SFTP::Operations::Upload, Net::SFTP::Operations::Download, Net::SFTP::Operations::FileFactory, Net::SFTP::Operations::File, and Net::SFTP::Operations::Dir.
== REQUIREMENTS:
* Net::SSH 2
If you wish to run the tests, you'll need:
* Echoe (if you want to use the Rakefile)
* Mocha
== INSTALL:
* gem install net-sftp (might need sudo privileges)
Or, if you prefer to do it the hard way (sans Rubygems):
* tar xzf net-ssh-*.tgz
* cd net-ssh-*
* ruby setup.rb config
* ruby setup.rb install (might need sudo privileges)
