| - | <code batch> | ||
| - | winscp.com /command "option batch abort" "option confirm off" "open sftp://user:password@example.com/" "put examplefile.txt /home/user/" "exit" | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | However you may want to use a script file anyway, so you can later expand it: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code winscp> | ||
| - | option batch abort | ||
| - | option confirm off | ||
| - | open sftp://user:password@example.com/ | ||
| - | put examplefile.txt /home/user/ | ||
| - | exit | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | To run the script use following command (providing you have saved the script to file ''example.txt''): | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code batch> | ||
| - | winscp.com /script=example.txt | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== [[upload_multiple_servers]] Upload to multiple servers / Parametrized script ===== | ||
| - | If you need to repeat the same task against multiple servers, instead of writing separate and almost identical [[scripting|scripts]] for each server, you can write one parametrized script. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Following example is parametrized script that accepts one [[scripting#syntax|parameter]] with [[session_url|session URL]] and uploads a fixed local file to a fixed remote directory: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code winscp> | ||
| - | option batch abort | ||
| - | option confirm off | ||
| - | open %1% | ||
| - | put examplefile.txt /home/user/ | ||
| - | exit | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | To use the script against multiple servers, just execute the script (saved to file ''script.txt'') repeatedly, using different [[session_url|session URL]] as parameter: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code batch> | ||
| - | winscp.com /script=script.txt /parameter sftp://martin@server1.example.com/ | ||
| - | winscp.com /script=script.txt /parameter sftp://test@server2.example.com/ | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | If the script has also other variable parts, like file to upload or remote directory, just replace those parts with additional parameters (''%2%'', ''%3%'', etc). | ||
| - | |||
| - | //Alternative to using ''/parameter'' switch is [[scripting#syntax|using environment variable in the script]].// | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ===== [[download_timestamped_filename]] Downloading file to timestamped-filename ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Using WinSCP .NET Assembly ==== | ||
| - | Use [[library|WinSCP .NET assembly]] from your favorite language. Use relevant construct of your language or API of your runtime environment for the file name formatting. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you do not have your favorite language, use [[library_powershell|PowerShell]]: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code powershell> | ||
| - | try | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | # Load WinSCP .NET assembly | ||
| - | Add-Type -Path "WinSCPnet.dll" | ||
| - | |||
| - | # Setup session options | ||
| - | $sessionOptions = New-Object WinSCP.SessionOptions | ||
| - | $sessionOptions.Protocol = [WinSCP.Protocol]::Sftp | ||
| - | $sessionOptions.HostName = "example.com" | ||
| - | $sessionOptions.UserName = "user" | ||
| - | $sessionOptions.Password = "mypassword" | ||
| - | $sessionOptions.SshHostKeyFingerprint = "ssh-rsa 2048 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" | ||
| - | |||
| - | $session = New-Object WinSCP.Session | ||
| - | |||
| - | try | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | # Connect | ||
| - | $session.Open($sessionOptions) | ||
| - | |||
| - | $localPath = "c:\downloaded\" | ||
| - | $remotePath = "/home/user/" | ||
| - | $file = "download.txt" | ||
| - | |||
| - | # Format timestamp | ||
| - | $stamp = $(Get-Date -f "yyyyMMddHHmmss") | ||
| - | |||
| - | # Download the file and throw on any error | ||
| - | $session.GetFiles( | ||
| - | ($remotePath + $file), | ||
| - | ($localPath + $file + "." + $stamp)).Check() | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | finally | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | # Disconnect, clean up | ||
| - | $session.Dispose() | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | |||
| - | exit 0 | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | catch [Exception] | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | Write-Host $_.Exception.Message | ||
| - | exit 1 | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Using WinSCP Scripting ==== | ||
| - | === From a Batch File === | ||
| - | In Windows batch file, you may retrieve current time in locale-independent format using command ''[[http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb491034.aspx|wmic]] os get LocalDateTime''. You can parse the value using using [[http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Windows_Batch_Scripting#String_processing|string processing syntax]]: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code batch> | ||
| - | @echo off | ||
| - | |||
| - | for /F "usebackq tokens=1,2 delims==" %%i in (`wmic os get LocalDateTime /VALUE 2^>NUL`) do if '.%%i.'=='.LocalDateTime.' set LDT=%%j | ||
| - | set STAMP=%LDT:~0,4%%LDT:~4,2%%LDT:~6,2%%LDT:~8,2%%LDT:~10,2%%LDT:~12,2% | ||
| - | |||
| - | winscp.com /script=script.txt | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | //Note that the expression after ''set STAMP='' shows how to extract individual date/time components, in case you need to interleave them by some punctuation. If not, you can replace it by simple ''%LDT:~0,14%''.// | ||
| - | |||
| - | The ''script.txt'' should make use of the variable ''STAMP'' using ''%STAMP%'' [[scripting#syntax|syntax]]. For example: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code winscp> | ||
| - | option batch abort | ||
| - | option confirm off | ||
| - | open mysession | ||
| - | get "/home/user/download.txt" "C:\downloaded\download.txt.%STAMP%" | ||
| - | exit | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | === From a JScript === | ||
| - | You may use following [[guide_automation_advanced#wsh|Windows script host JScript code]] (''example.js''): | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code javascript> | ||
| - | // Local path to download to (keep trailing slash) | ||
| - | var LOCALPATH = "c:\\downloaded\\"; | ||
| - | // Remote path to download from (keep trailing slash) | ||
| - | var REMOTEPATH = "/home/user/"; | ||
| - | // File to download | ||
| - | var FILE = "download.txt"; | ||
| - | // Session to connect to | ||
| - | var SESSION = "session"; | ||
| - | // Path to winscp.com | ||
| - | var WINSCP = "c:\\program files\\winscp\\winscp.com"; | ||
| - | |||
| - | // helper function to pad zeroes to the left of number | ||
| - | function pad(n, len) | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | var s = n.toString(); | ||
| - | while (s.length < len) | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | s = '0' + s; | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | return s; | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | |||
| - | var date = new Date(); | ||
| - | |||
| - | // format timestamp | ||
| - | var stamp = | ||
| - | pad(date.getFullYear(), 4) + | ||
| - | pad(date.getMonth(), 2) + | ||
| - | pad(date.getDate(), 2) + | ||
| - | pad(date.getHours(), 2) + | ||
| - | pad(date.getMinutes(), 2) + | ||
| - | pad(date.getSeconds(), 2); | ||
| - | |||
| - | var shell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell"); | ||

| - | ==== Using WinSCP Scripting ==== | ||
| - | WinSCP scripting does not support move command for local files. Instead you can combine WinSCP script with batch file: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code winscp> | ||
| - | option batch abort | ||
| - | option confirm off | ||
| - | # Connect | ||
| - | open mysession | ||
| - | # Upload the files | ||
| - | put *.* | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | Launch the above script from batch file like the one below: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code batch> | ||
| - | winscp.com /script=example.txt | ||
| - | if errorlevel 1 goto error | ||
| - | |||
| - | echo Upload succeeded, moving local files | ||
| - | move *.* c:\backup\ | ||
| - | exit | ||
| - | |||
| - | :error | ||
| - | echo Upload failed, keeping local files | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== [[synchronize_any_local_file]] Shortcut to synchronize any local directory with remote directory ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | You may want to have a script that synchronizes any local directory with a same-named subdirectory of fixed remote path, e.g.: | ||
| - | * ''c:\www\gallery'' with ''/home/user/www/gallery''; | ||
| - | * ''c:\users\username\www\forum'' with ''/home/user/www/forum''. &winpath | ||
| - | |||
| - | Such a script is particularly useful for integrating with Windows Explorer's 'Send To' menu. | ||
| - | |||
| - | First create wrapper batch file to store the paths you want to synchronize into environment variables (change ''/home/user/www/'' to remote path root you want to synchronize against): | ||
| - | <code> | ||
| - | winscp.com /script=example.txt /parameter %1 "/home/user/www/%~n1%~x1" | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | The script ''example.txt'' may look like: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code winscp> | ||
| - | # Being intended for interactive session, we are not enabling batch mode | ||
| - | # Connect | ||
| - | open mysession | ||
| - | # Synchronize paths provided via environment variables | ||
| - | synchronize remote "%1%" "%2%" | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | Then you can make a shortcut to the batch file: | ||
| - | * When placed on desktop, you can drop any local directory to it to start synchronization; | ||
| - | * When placed to ''C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo'', you can use //Send To > Your Shortcut// from context menu of any local directory. &winpath | ||

| - | ===== [[auto_compress_download]] Automatically compress files before download ===== | ||
| - | Following script compresses selected files into tar/gzip archive and downloads it: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code winscp> | ||
| - | option batch abort | ||
| - | option confirm off | ||
| - | open mysession | ||
| - | cd %1% | ||
| - | call tar -czf /tmp/archive.tar.gz %2% | ||
| - | lpwd | ||
| - | get -delete /tmp/archive.tar.gz | ||
| - | exit | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | Launch the above script from batch file like the one below, which automatically decompresses the archive: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code> | ||
| - | winscp.com /script=example.txt /parameter %* | ||
| - | if errorlevel 1 goto error | ||
| - | |||
| - | echo Retrieving files succeeded | ||
| - | gzip -d archive.tar.gz | ||
| - | tar -xf archive.tar | ||
| - | del archive.tar | ||
| - | exit | ||
| - | |||
| - | :error | ||
| - | echo Retrieving files failed | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | Example of running the batch file to download all files under ''/home/user/www'': | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code> | ||
| - | example.bat /home/user/www *.* | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | The batch file needs Windows ports of ''gzip'' and ''tar'' tools. You can get them from [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/unxutils/|UnxUtils]] project. | ||
