(Visual FoxPro) Setting Environment Variables for SCP Transfers

Demonstrates how to set remote environment variables for an SCP transfer.

Note 1: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.79 or greater.

Note 2: Setting environment variables for SCP is only supported by some SSH servers.

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

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Ssh')
loSsh = CreateObject('Chilkat.Ssh')

* First connect to an SSH server.
lnSuccess = loSsh.Connect("example.com",22)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loSsh.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSsh
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Wait a max of 5 seconds when reading responses..
loSsh.IdleTimeoutMs = 5000

* Authenticate..
lnSuccess = loSsh.AuthenticatePw("myLogin","myPassword")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loSsh.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSsh
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* After the SSH object is connected and authenticated, we use it
* as the underlying transport in our SCP object.
* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Scp')
loScp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Scp')

lnSuccess = loScp.UseSsh(loSsh)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loScp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSsh
    RELEASE loScp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Specify the environment variables to be set in JSON as follows.
* This example sets two environment variables.  One is named "LCS_PASSWORD" and the other "MY_TEST_NAME".
* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject')
loJsonEnvVars = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
loJsonEnvVars.EmitCompact = 0
loJsonEnvVars.UpdateString("LCS_PASSWORD","secret")
loJsonEnvVars.UpdateString("MY_TEST_NAME","abc")
lcStrEnvVars = loJsonEnvVars.Emit()

? lcStrEnvVars

* Setting the SendEnv property causes Chilkat to set each environment variable on the SSH server
* prior to doing the upload or download.
loScp.SendEnv = lcStrEnvVars

* Do the upload..
lcRemotePath = "starfish.jpg"
lcLocalPath = "qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg"
lnSuccess = loScp.UploadFile(lcLocalPath,lcRemotePath)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loScp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSsh
    RELEASE loScp
    RELEASE loJsonEnvVars
    CANCEL
ENDIF

? "SCP upload file success."

* Disconnect
loSsh.Disconnect()

RELEASE loSsh
RELEASE loScp
