SFTP Simplified Upload

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to upload a file to an SSH server in the simplest way -- by calling UploadFileByName and passing remote and local filepaths. Chilkat2 PHP

<?php

use Chilkat2\SFtp;

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

$sftp = new SFtp();

// Set some timeouts, in milliseconds:
$sftp->ConnectTimeoutMs = 15000;
$sftp->IdleTimeoutMs = 15000;

// Connect to the SSH server.
// The standard SSH port = 22
// The hostname may be a hostname or IP address.
$hostname = 'sftp.example.com';
$port = 22;
try {
    $sftp->Connect($hostname, $port);

    // Authenticate with the SSH server.  Chilkat SFTP supports
    // both password-based authenication as well as public-key
    // authentication.  This example uses password authenication.
    $sftp->AuthenticatePw('myLogin', 'myPassword');

    // After authenticating, the SFTP subsystem must be initialized:
    $sftp->InitializeSftp();

    // Upload from the local file to the SSH server.
    // Important -- the remote filepath is the 1st argument,
    // the local filepath is the 2nd argument;
    $remoteFilePath = 'hamlet.xml';
    $localFilePath = 'c:/temp/hamlet.xml';

    $sftp->UploadFileByName($remoteFilePath, $localFilePath);
} catch (\Chilkat2\Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), "\n";
    exit;
}

echo "Success.\n";
