PPK (Private Key) file does not support identity file for SFTP Connector.

Configurations

Default Configuration

Parameters

Name Type Description Default Value Required

Name

String

The name for this configuration. Connectors reference the configuration with this name.

x

Connection

SFTP Connection

The connection types to provide to this configuration.

x

Time Between Size Check

Number

Wait time between size checks to determine if a file is ready to read. This allows a file write to complete before processing. If no value is provided, the check will not be performed. When enabled, Mule waits the specified time between calls and performs two size checks. If both checks return the same value, the file is ready to read. This attribute works in tandem with Time Between Size Check Unit.

Time Between Size Check Unit

Enumeration, is one of:

  • NANOSECONDS

  • MICROSECONDS

  • MILLISECONDS

  • SECONDS

  • MINUTES

  • HOURS

  • DAYS

A TimeUnit that qualifies the Time Between Size Check attribute. + Defaults to MILLISECONDS.

MILLISECONDS

Expiration Policy

Expiration Policy

Configures the minimum amount of time that a dynamic configuration instance can remain idle before the runtime considers it eligible for expiration. This does not mean that the platform will expire the instance at the exact moment that it becomes eligible. Mule runtime engine purges the instances when it sees it fit.

Connection Types

SFTP Connection

A file system provider that provides instances of SFTP file system from instances of SFTP Connector.

Parameters
Name Type Description Default Value Required

Working Directory

String

The directory designated as the root of every relative path used with this connector. If not provided, it defaults to the remote server default. Define a working directory because some SFTP servers do not return output for the present working directory command. While the behavior of the SFTP server side cannot be controlled, setting this value mitigates such scenario.

Operations

Copy

<sftp:copy>

Copies the file or directory specified in Source Path into the Target Path. The source path can be either a file or a directory. If it points to a directory, then it is copied recursively.

If the target path doesn’t exist, and neither does its parent, then a parent folder is created if Create parent directories is set to true. If Create parent directories is set to false, then an SFTP:ILLEGAL_PATH error is thrown.

If Overwrite is set to true and the target file already exists, then the target file is overwritten. Otherwise, an SFTP:FILE_ALREADY_EXISTS error is thrown.

Parameters

  • SFTP:ILLEGAL_PATH

  • SFTP:FILE_ALREADY_EXISTS

  • SFTP:CONNECTIVITY

Read

<sftp:read>

Obtains the content and metadata of a file at a given path. The operation itself returns a message whose payload is an input stream with the file’s content, and the metadata is represented as an SftpFileAttributes object that’s placed as the message Message#getAttributes() attributes.

If the lock parameter is set to true, then a file system level lock is placed on the file until the input stream this operation returns is closed or fully consumed. Because the lock is provided by the host file system, its behavior might change depending on the SFTP server or its file system. Take that into consideration before relying on this lock.

This method also makes a best effort to determine the MIME type of the file being read by using the file’s extension to make an educated guess. You can also use the output Encoding and output MIME Type optional parameters to force the encoding and MIME type.

Parameters

Name Type Description Default Value Required

String

The name of the configuration to use.

Write

<sftp:write>

Writes the content into the file the path points to.

If the directory to which the file is attempting to be written doesn’t exist, then the operation will either throw an SFTP:ILLEGAL_PATH error, or create a new folder, depending on the value of Create parent directories. If the file already exists, then the behavior depends on the supplied mode.

This operation also supports locking depending on the value of the lock argument, and follows the same rules and considerations as described in the read operation.

An additional check is performed if the file already exists, thus the FTP STAT command is executed before writing the file.

Sources

On New or Updated File

<sftp:listener>

Polls a directory and looks for files that have been created in it. One message is generated for each file that is found.

The key part of this functionality is how to determine that a file is actually new. There are three strategies for that:

  • Set the Auto delete parameter to true to delete each file after it is processed, which causes all files obtained in the next poll to be necessarily new.

  • Set the Move to directory parameter to move each file to a different directory after it is processed, which achieves the same effect as Auto delete but without losing the file.

  • Use Watermark enabled to pick only files that have been created or updated after the last poll was executed.

You can also use a matcher for additional filtering of files.

The On New Or Updated File source ignores files that return with an empty attributes list. The list can be empty if the modification time (MDTM) is not enabled by the SFTP server or if the server returns an error when listing the attributes.

Parameters

Name Type Description Default Value Required

Configuration

String

The name of the configuration to use.

x

Directory

String

Time Between Size Check

Number

Wait time (in milliseconds) between size checks to determine if a file is ready to read. This allows a file write to complete before processing. When enabled, Mule performs two size checks, waiting the specified time between calls. If both checks return the same value, the file is ready to read.
You can disable this feature by omitting a value.

Apply Post Action When Failed

Boolean

Specifies whether any of the post actions (Auto delete and Move to directory) should also be applied in case the file fails to be processed. If set to false, no failed files will be moved or deleted.
