SFTP Create Directory

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to create a new directory on the remote SFTP server. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    // Important: It is helpful to send the contents of the
    // sftp.LastErrorText property when requesting support.

    let sftp = CkoSFtp()!

    // Set some timeouts, in milliseconds:
    sftp.connectTimeoutMs = 15000
    sftp.idleTimeoutMs = 15000

    // Connect to the SSH server.  
    success = sftp.connect(hostname: "sftp.example.com", port: 22)
    if success != true {
        print("\(sftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // Authenticate with the SSH server.  Chilkat SFTP supports
    // both password-based authenication as well as public-key
    // authentication.  This example uses password authenication.
    success = sftp.authenticatePw(login: "myLogin", password: "myPassword")
    if success != true {
        print("\(sftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // After authenticating, the SFTP subsystem must be initialized:
    success = sftp.initializeSftp()
    if success != true {
        print("\(sftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // Create a new directory:
    success = sftp.createDir(path: "myNewDir")
    if success != true {
        print("\(sftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("Success.")
