@page sftp Chapter 5: The SFTP subsystem
|
||||
@section sftp_subsystem The SFTP subsystem
|
||||
|
||||
SFTP stands for "Secure File Transfer Protocol". It enables you to safely
|
||||
transfer files between the local and the remote computer. It reminds a lot
|
||||
of the old FTP protocol.
|
||||
|
||||
SFTP is a rich protocol. It lets you do over the network almost everything
|
||||
that you can do with local files:
|
||||
- send files
|
||||
- modify only a portion of a file
|
||||
- receive files
|
||||
- receive only a portion of a file
|
||||
- get file owner and group
|
||||
- get file permissions
|
||||
- set file owner and group
|
||||
- set file permissions
|
||||
- remove files
|
||||
- rename files
|
||||
- create a directory
|
||||
- remove a directory
|
||||
- retrieve the list of files in a directory
|
||||
- get the target of a symbolic link
|
||||
- create symbolic links
|
||||
- get information about mounted filesystems.
|
||||

@subsection sftp_section Opening and closing a SFTP session
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike with remote shells and remote commands, when you use the SFTP subsystem,
|
||||
you don't handle directly the SSH channels. Instead, you open a "SFTP session".
|
||||
|
||||
The function sftp_new() creates a new SFTP session. The function sftp_init()
|
||||
initializes it. The function sftp_free() deletes it.
|
||||
|
||||
As you see, all the SFTP-related functions start with the "sftp_" prefix
|
||||
instead of the usual "ssh_" prefix. In case of a problem, you use
|
||||
sftp_get_error() instead of ssh_get_error() to get the English error message.
|
||||
|
||||
The example below shows how to use these functions:
|
||||
|
||||
@code
|
||||
#include <libssh/sftp.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int sftp_helloworld(ssh_session session)
|
||||
{
|
||||
sftp_session sftp;
|
||||
int rc;
|
||||
|
||||
sftp = sftp_new(session);
|
||||
if (sftp == NULL)
|
||||
{
|
||||
fprintf(stderr, "Error allocating SFTP session: %s\n", ssh_get_error(session));
|
||||
return SSH_ERROR;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
rc = sftp_init(sftp);
|
||||
if (rc != SSH_OK)
|
||||
{
|
||||
fprintf(stderr, "Error initializing SFTP session: %s.\n", sftp_get_error(sftp));
|
||||
sftp_free(sftp);
|
||||
return rc;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
sftp_free(sftp);
|
||||
return SSH_OK;
|
||||
}
|
||||
@endcode
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
