SFTP Resume Download

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to resume an SFTP download from a previous partial download. 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.

    let sftp = CkoSFtp()!

    // Set some timeouts, in milliseconds:
    sftp.connectTimeoutMs = 5000
    sftp.idleTimeoutMs = 10000

    // Connect to the SSH server.  
    // The standard SSH port = 22
    // The hostname may be a hostname or IP address.
    var hostname: String? = "sftp.example.com"
    var port: Int = 22
    success = sftp.connect(hostname: hostname, port: port)
    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
    }

    // Download the file:
    var remoteFilePath: String?
    var localFilePath: String?
    localFilePath = "c:/temp/hamlet.xml"
    remoteFilePath = "subdir1/subdir2/hamlet.xml"
    // The ResumeDownloadFileByName method will check
    // the local file and begin downloading the remote file
    // at the appropriate point.  For example, if the local
    // file is already 215624 bytes long, it will begin downloading
    // the remote file at the 215625'th byte -- appending to
    // the local file.
    success = sftp.resumeDownloadFile(byName: remoteFilePath, localFilePath: localFilePath)
    if success != true {
        print("\(sftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("Success.")
