Description Usage Arguments Details See Also Examples

This class represents a directory on a remote server that is accessed via the SFTP protocol. The only SSH authentication currently supported the public RSA key method.

The sftpdir function creates a SftpLocation object.

1	sftpdir(uri, pubkey, privatekey, keypasswd = "", clss = "SftpLocation")

`uri`	character, the address of the remote host in the form sftp://username@the.host.com:port/remote/dir/
`pubkey`	character, pointing to the public key file. Required.
`privatekey`	character, pointing to the private key file. Required.
`keypasswd`	character, optional key password
`clss`	character, optional class name. Default is "SftpLocation".

The show and as.character methods for this class have been adapted to reveal the URL of the directory it represents.

The meta method returns a data.frame with filenames and an is.dir attribute. It currently returns wrong values when the remote directory contains files with spaces in their file name.
