sftp sync extension for VS Code

Very simple, requires just three lines of config! Very fast, finished in a blink.

Features

• Multiple configs
• Browser remote files
• Compare a local file with remote file
• Sync directory to remote
• Sync directory to local
• Download file/directory to local
• Upload file/directory to remote
• Upload to remote on save
• Dual authentication
• Watch project directory for external changes and automatically update remote

Usage

1. Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows/Linux open command palette, run SFTP: config command.
2. Run command on editor context menu or explorer context menu.

Note1 ：A command must run with a target(file or directory). When Running command within command palette it will ask you to select a folder.

Note2 ：Sync commands will only be available to a directory. Try not to bind shortcuts to those commands because there is no way to figure out the target directory.

Commands

Command	Description	Detailed description
SFTP: Config	create a new config file at workspace root	see below for an explained config file
SFTP: Upload	upload file/directory	copies selected files from the local to the remote directory, overwriting the remote ones. Files that are only present on the remote side won't be affected. Files that are only present on the local side will be created remotely
SFTP: Download	download file/directory	same as above, but in the opposite direction
SFTP: Sync To Remote	sync local directory to remote	only available for directories. Copies common files (that exist on both sides) from local dir to remote, overwriting destination. If syncMode is set to full, files that exist only on the local side will be created remotely, and files that exist only on the remote side will be deleted
SFTP: Sync To Local	sync remote directory to local	same as above, but in the opposite direction

Config

Example

You are even not required to config a password!

{
  "host": "host",
  "username": "username",
  "remotePath": "/remote/workspace", 
}

You can also use an array of configs in the config file.

[
  {
    "context": "/workspace/a",
    "host": "host",
    "username": "username",
    "password": "password",
    "remotePath": "/remote/workspace/a", 
  },
  {
    "context": "/workspace/b",
    "host": "host",
    "username": "username",
    "password": "password",
    "remotePath": "/remote/workspace/b", 
  }
]

You can see the full config here.
