SFTP Upload and Download to a StringBuilder Object

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to SFTP upload from a Chilkat StringBuilder object, and download into a StringBuilder object. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

sftp = Chilkat::CkSFtp.new()

# Set some timeouts, in milliseconds:
sftp.put_ConnectTimeoutMs(5000)
sftp.put_IdleTimeoutMs(10000)

# Connect to the SSH server and then authenticate.
port = 22
success = sftp.Connect("MY-SSH-SERVER-DOMAIN-OR-IP",port)
if (success == true)
    success = sftp.AuthenticatePw("MY-SSH-LOGIN","MY-SSH-PASSWORD")
    if (success == true)
        success = sftp.InitializeSftp()
    end

end

if (success != true)
    print sftp.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

sbA.LoadFile("qa_data/hamlet.xml","utf-8")

# Upload the contents of sbA to the SSH/SFTP server.

    print sftp.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Download the file..
sbB = Chilkat::CkStringBuilder.new()
success = sftp.DownloadSb(remotePath,"utf-8",sbB)
if (success != true)
    print sftp.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Verify that sbA and sbB have the exact same contents.
print "size of sbA: " + sbA.get_Length().to_s() + "\n";
