In stenevang/sftp: SFTP file operations

Description Usage Arguments Value See Also Examples

This function is used for uploading files to an SFTP account. The function uses connection credentials from a list object created by calling sftp_connect. The files will be uploaded to the SFTP account folder where you are currently "standing" as specified in the connection list object. sftp_upload internally calls RCurl::ftpUpload Questions? https://github.com/stenevang/sftp

`file`	A character vector of file names. If the wildcard "*" is used, then all files in `fromfolder` will be uploaded. NOTE! Names of folders (directories) cannot be part of `file`. To create folders on the SFTP server, please see sftp_makedir
`fromfolder`	A string containing a valid path - relative or absolute - to the folder where the files in `file` can be found. Default is the working directory.
`sftp_connection`	A list object created with `link{sftp_connect}`. Default is `sftp_con`.
`log_file`	Valid path to a text file (.txt, .csv, .log etc) including filename and file extension.
`verbose`	Logical. Turn on messages to console. Default is TRUE.
`curl_options`	A list of named values with names as listed by `RCurl::listCurlOptions`. The values are handed to the .opts parameter of the RCurl function called by `sftp_upload`. Optional. Default is an empty list.

The function returns the number of files uploaded, following successful upload.
