Ant script to transfer file using just SFTP


I would like to implement ant script to be able to upload a file from my system to a server using SFTP. I know of a way that uses SCP with sftp="true". But since my remote server just supports SFTP, so I would just like to have plain SFTP based target in my Ant script. I tried with Ant Maverick script that makes use of SSH but that doesn't work. Also sshexec doesn't seem to work for me. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.


Solution

  • The Ant SCP task, with the sftp attribute set to true, uses the SFTP protocol, not the SCP protocol.

    You cannot be more SFTP than that.
