Overview

A convenience class for working with remote directories. It provides methods for searching and enumerating directory entries, similarly to the standard ::Dir class.

sftp.dir.foreach("/remote/path") do |entry|
  puts entry.name
end

p sftp.dir.entries("/remote/path").map { |e| e.name }

sftp.dir.glob("/remote/path", "**/*.rb") do |entry|
  puts entry.name
end

Instance Method Details

#[](path, pattern) ⇒ Object

Identical to calling #glob with a flags parameter of 0 and no block. Simply returns the matched entries as an array.

# File 'lib/net/sftp/operations/dir.rb', line 88

def [](path, pattern)
  glob(path, pattern, 0)
end

#entries(path) ⇒ Object

Returns an array of Name objects representing the items in the given remote directory, path.

def entries(path)
  results = []
  foreach(path) { |entry| results << entry }
  return results
end

#foreach(path) ⇒ Object

Calls the block once for each entry in the named directory on the remote server. Yields a Name object to the block, rather than merely the name of the entry.

def foreach(path)
  handle = sftp.opendir!(path)
  while entries = sftp.readdir!(handle)
    entries.each { |entry| yield entry }
  end
  return nil
ensure
  sftp.close!(handle) if handle
end

#glob(path, pattern, flags = 0) ⇒ Object

Works as ::Dir.glob, matching (possibly recursively) all directory entries under path against pattern. If a block is given, matches will be yielded to the block as they are found; otherwise, they will be returned in an array when the method finishes.

Because working over an SFTP connection is always going to be slower than working purely locally, don’t expect this method to perform with the same level of alacrity that ::Dir.glob does; it will work best for shallow directory hierarchies with relatively few directories, though it should be able to handle modest numbers of files in each directory.
