SFTP Download Files Matching a Pattern

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to download files in a directory matching one or more patterns (such as "*.zip" or "abc*_*0719.csv". Rust

let mut success = false;

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

let sftp = chilkat::SFtp::new();

success = sftp.connect("my-ssh-server.com", 22).is_ok();
if success {
    success = sftp.authenticate_pw("mySshLogin", "mySshPassword").is_ok();
}

if success {
    success = sftp.initialize_sftp().is_ok();
}

if !success {
    println!("{}", sftp.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// The SyncTreeDownload method can be used non-recursively to download all files matching a set of patterns.

// This example will download all files, but only those files having filenames
// that match *.csv and *.eml
sftp.set_sync_must_match("*.eml; *.gif");

let remote_dir = "syncDownloadTest/someDir".to_string();
let local_dir = "qa_output".to_string();

// mode=0: Download all matching files according to SyncMustMatch
let mode = 0;

// do not recursively traverse the remote directory tree.
let recursive = false;

if sftp.sync_tree_download(&remote_dir, &local_dir, mode, recursive).is_err() {
    println!("{}", sftp.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("Success.");
