Usage

All functions that run asynchronously where we have to wait for a result returns Promises that can reject if an error occured.

Create a client using password authentication

import SSHClient from 'react-native-ssh-sftp';

SSHClient.connectWithPassword(
  "10.0.0.10",
  22,
  "user",
  "password"
).then(client => {/*...*/});

Create a client using public key authentication

import SSHClient from 'react-native-ssh-sftp';

SSHClient.connectWithKey(
  "10.0.0.10",
  22,
  "user",
  privateKey="-----BEGIN RSA...",
  passphrase
).then(client => {/*...*/});

• Public key authentication also supports:

{privateKey: '-----BEGIN RSA......'}
{privateKey: '-----BEGIN RSA......', publicKey: 'ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EA......'}
{privateKey: '-----BEGIN RSA......', publicKey: 'ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EA......', passphrase: 'Password'}

Close client

client.disconnect();

Execute SSH command

var command = 'ls -l';
client.execute(command)
  .then(output => console.warn(output));

Shell

Start shell:

• Supported ptyType: vanilla, vt100, vt102, vt220, ansi, xterm

var ptyType = 'vanilla';
client.startShell(ptyType)
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

Read from shell:

client.on('Shell', (event) => {
  if (event)
    console.warn(event);
});

Write to shell:

var str = 'ls -l\n';
client.writeToShell(str)
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

Close shell:

client.closeShell();

SFTP

Connect SFTP

client.connectSFTP()
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

List directory:

var path = '.';
client.sftpLs(path)
  .then(response => console.warn(response));

Create directory:

client.sftpMkdir('dirName')
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

Rename file or directory:

client.sftpRename('oldName', 'newName')
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

Remove directory:

client.sftpRmdir('dirName')
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

Remove file:

client.sftpRm('fileName')
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

Download file:

client.sftpDownload('[path-to-remote-file]', '[path-to-local-directory]')
  .then(downloadedFilePath => {
    console.warn(downloadedFilePath);
  });

// Download progress (setup before call)
client.on('DownloadProgress', (event) => {
  console.warn(event);
});

// Cancel download:
client.sftpCancelDownload();

Upload file:

client.sftpUpload('[path-to-local-file]', '[path-to-remote-directory]')
  .then(() => {/*...*/});

// Upload progress (setup before call)
client.on('UploadProgress', (event) => {
  console.warn(event);
});

// Cancel upload:
client.sftpCancelUpload();

Close SFTP:

client.disconnectSFTP();
