Hi there, I am trying to implent a nodejs script that connects to one of our servers using sftp.
So far I can connect using child process and spawning a command such as... sftp -o Port=22-o PasswordAuthentication=no-o UserKnownHostsFile=/home/carlton/.ssh/known_hosts-o IdentityFile=private_key-o StrictHostKeyChecking=no-o BatchMode=nodeploy@46.x.x.x:/home/carlton/to_process Now this is the part that has me confused... I then need to execute commands on the ftp server (e.g. list files, rename files) so I listen to the 'data' event.... sftp.stdout.on('data', function (data) { console.log('stdout: ' + data); sftp.stdin.write("ls -l\r\n"); sftp.stdout.on('data', function(data){ console.log('File list:', data.toString()); // Parse file names here sftp.stdin.write("rename /home/carlton/FTP_test/to_process/old.php /home/ carlton /FTP_test/processed/new.php\n"); }); }); Is this the correct way to structure things (i.e. creatiung event listener again for the 'data' event within the callback of the previous 'data' event listener)? I found it hard to find any examples similar to what I need to do which made me think I haven't built this as it should have been. -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
