SFTP Upload - Synchronize Directory Tree

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to upload files to synchronize a local directory tree with a remote directory tree. The SyncTreeUpload method recursively descends a local directory tree and uploads files based on existence, last-mod date/time and/or size differences. AutoIt

; This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$oSftp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.SFtp")

$bSuccess = $oSftp.Connect("my-ssh-server.com",22)
If ($bSuccess = True) Then
    $bSuccess = $oSftp.AuthenticatePw("mySshLogin","mySshPassword")
EndIf

If ($bSuccess = True) Then
    $bSuccess = $oSftp.InitializeSftp()
EndIf

If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSftp.LastErrorText & @CRLF)

; Synchronize (by uploading) the local directory tree rooted at "qa_data/sftpUploadTree"
; with the remote directory tree rooted at "syncUploadTest"
; Both directories are relative paths.  The remote directory
; is relative to the HOME directory of the SSH user account.
; The local directory is relative to the current working directory of the process.
; It is also possible to use absolute paths.

Local $sRemoteDir = "syncUploadTest"
Local $sLocalDir = "qa_data/sftpUploadTree"

; Possible modes that can be passed to the SyncTreeUpload method are:
; mode=0: Upload all files
; mode=1: Upload all files that do not exist on the server.
; mode=2: Upload newer or non-existant files.
; mode=3: Upload only newer files. If a file does not already exist on the server, it is not uploaded.
; mode=4: transfer missing files or files with size differences.
; mode=5: same as mode 4, but also newer files.

; This example will use mode 5 to upload missing, newer, or files with size differences.
Local $iMode = 5
; This example turns on recursion to synchronize the entire tree. 
; Recursion can be turned off to synchronize the files of a single directory.
Local $bRecursive = True
$bSuccess = $oSftp.SyncTreeUpload($sLocalDir,$sRemoteDir,$iMode,$bRecursive)
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
