A pure SFTP protocol implementation for Go!
This library provides an SFTP client and server (not yet) implementation and
low-level packet definitions for SFTP version 3. The cmd/sftp package contains
a SFTP commandline client with interactive shell and auto-completion.
// Create a new sftp client.
cli, _ := sftp.NewClient(sshConn)
// List contents of a directory
list, _ := cli.List("/tmp")
for _, fileInfo := range list {
fmt.Printf("%s %dbytes\n", fileInfo.Name(), fileInfo.Size())
}
// Create an io.Reader for a given file and copy contents to stdout
reader, _ := cli.FileReader("/etc/passwd")
io.Copy(os.Stdout, reader)
// Create an io.WriteCloser for the given remote file and copy contents from
// a local file
f, _ := os.Open("/tmp/foobar")
writer, _ := cli.FileWriter("/tmp/barfoo")
io.Copy(writer, f)
// There is also Get() and Put() to upload/download files
cli.Put("/tmp/local_file", "/tmp/remote_file")
cli.Get("/tmp/remote_file", "/tmp/local_file")
// Copy a remote file to a remote destination (client forwards data)
reader, _ = cli.FileReader("/tmp/source")
writer, _ = cli.FileWriter("/tmp/dest")
io.Copy(writer, reader)
// Remove a file
cli.Remove("/tmp/foobar")
// Rename/Move a file or directory
cli.Rename("/tmp/bar", "/tmp/foo")
// Create a new directory
cli.MkDir("/tmp/mydir")
// Remove a directory
cli.RmDir("/tmp/mydir")go-sftp is not yet complete an some protocol features are still missing. In
addition, the server implementation is postponed until the client is fully
functional.
