SFTP Synchronize Directory Tree - Download

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to download files to synchronize a local directory tree with a remote directory tree. The SyncTreeDownload method recursively descends the remote directory tree and downloads files based on existence, last-mod date/time and/or size differences. SQL Server

    -- Possible modes that can be passed to the SyncTreeDownload method 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.
