In skgrange/threadr: Tools to Thread Pieces Of Data Analysis Together

Function to upload files locally to a remote system with scp (secure copy).

Description

upload_with_scp offers an alternative to the curl based functions which can be troublesome to use with the sftp protocol on Ubuntu systems. upload_with_scp needs the sshpass system programme to be installed.

Usage

upload_with_scp(
  host,
  file_local,
  file_remote,
  user,
  password,
  compression = FALSE,
  verbose = FALSE,
  basename = FALSE,
  quiet_streams = FALSE
)

Arguments

host	Host name of remote system.
file_local	A vector of file names which are the destination files for file_remote.
file_remote	A vector of remote files names to download.
user	User name for scp.
password	Password for the user for scp.
compression	Should the files be copied with compression on the fly? This can speed up copying time on slower networks but not always.
verbose	Should the file to be uploaded be printed to the console as a message?
basename	If verbose, should only the basename of file being handled be printed?
quiet_streams	Should the system streams be suppressed?

Value

Invisible.
