2.0.0

Aug 17, 2023

What’s New

  • The List operation no longer fetches the content of each file. Now, the payload of each list item contains the complete path to the found file or directory.

  • The connector no longer uses the mule.sftp.useHomeDirectory system property. SFTP Connector now uses the default home directory.

  • The SFTP Regular Size file attribute is renamed to Regular File, because its behavior is not related to size. The file attribute value is a file (true) or a directory (false).

  • SFTP Connector 2.0.0 does not support ciphers 3des-ctr and arcfour. For more information, refer to Supported Ciphers.

  • The SFTP proxy protocol works only with HTTP and SOCKS5. SOCKS4 support is not supported.

  • SFTP Connector no longer uses javax.activation to resolve the media types of the files. The connector now uses Apache Tika, which can result in different media file interpretations.

  • The connector changed the classes to manage the date from LocalDateTime to ZonedDateTime.

  • The deprecated Encoding parameter in the configuration and Write operation is removed. The connector uses Mule’s default encoding.
