(Node.js) SFTP Resume Upload

Demonstrates how to resume an SFTP upload to an SSH server. The ResumeUploadFileByName method checks the size of the file on the remote server and begins uploading from the appropriate position in the local file.

    // The standard SSH port = 22

    // both password-based authenication as well as public-key
    // authentication.  This example uses password authenication.

    // the local filepath is the 2nd argument;
    var remoteFilePath = "hamlet.xml";

    // The ResumeUploadFileByName method first gets the size
    // of the partial file on the server and then begins uploading
    // from the appropriate point in the local file.
    // If the remote file does not exist or is 0-length, this
    // method is equivalent to UploadFileByName.
    // If the remote file is already equal to or larger in size
    // than the local file, then nothing more is uploaded.
    success = sftp.ResumeUploadFileByName(remoteFilePath,localFilePath);

        console.log(sftp.LastErrorText);
