SFTP Sync Download Tree w/ Must-Match Directory Constraints

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how SFTP synchronize a directory tree in the download direction, but only entering directories matching a set of wildcard filenames.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.76 or greater.

Rust

let mut success = false;

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;
}

// Possible synchronization modes are:
// mode=0: Download all files
// mode=1: Download all files that do not exist on the local filesystem.
// mode=2: Download newer or non-existant files.
// mode=3: Download only newer files. If a file does not already exist on the local filesystem, it is not downloaded from the server.
// mode=5: Download only missing files or files with size differences.
// mode=6: Same as mode 5, but also download newer files.

// Only enter remote directories named either "data" or matching "x*"
sftp.set_sync_must_match_dir("data; x*");

// Imagine our remote directory tree has these files and directories:

// 	accentedLatin1.txt
// 	accentedUtf8.txt
// 	alice.key
// 	anter_cert.pem
// 	chiliPepper.gif
// 	helloWorld.pdf
// 	abc/chiliPepper.gif
// 	abc/ghk/
// 	data/chiliPepper.gif
// 	data/xyz/dkimHtmlBody.txt
// 	data/xyz/dkimVerifyTest.eml
// 	data/xyz/emailForCreateDsn.eml
// 	text/frenchUtf8.txt
// 	text/helloWorld.txt
// 	text/PolishEmailBody.txt
// 	text/something/

let remote_dir = "syncDownloadTest/someDir".to_string();
let local_dir = "qa_output".to_string();
let mode = 0;
let recursive = true;
if sftp.sync_tree_download(&remote_dir, &local_dir, mode, recursive).is_err() {
    println!("{}", sftp.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// The following files were downloaded:

// accentedLatin1.txt
// accentedUtf8.txt
// alice.key
// anter_cert.pem
// chiliPepper.gif
// helloWorld.pdf
// data/chiliPepper.gif
// data/xyz/dkimHtmlBody.txt
// data/xyz/dkimVerifyTest.eml
// data/xyz/emailForCreateDsn.eml

println!("Success.");
