h1. Feature

The SFTP component is a Binding Component (BC) which supports SFTP command. The petals-bc-sftp component allows to put, get or list files on an SFTP server.
The SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol / Secure File Transfer Protocol) protocol is described at : SFTP protocol is described at : [http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/05mar/IDs/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-06.txt]

This component provide a set of 5 operation:

* *put:* Write the received JBI messages in a file with a specified name.
* *mput:* Write the JBI message attachments it receives into files.
* *get:* Retrieve *Xml* file corresponding to a pattern, from a folder. Return it as message payload.
* *getAsAttachment:* Retrieve the first file corresponding to a pattern, from a folder. Return it as message's attachment.(XOP standard)
* *mGet:* Retrieve files corresponding to a pattern, from a folder. Return them as message's attachment.
* *del:* Delete one file.
* *dir:* List the content of a folder.

These operations are described in an embedded WSDL.
{info}All attachment are processed by using XOP rules.(XML-binary Optimized Packaging : [http://www.w3.org/TR/xop10/] ){info}

h1. Exposing a SFTP connection as a service

In provide mode, the component expose an external service in the JBI environment to send SFTP commands on an SFTP server.

This service can either connects to an SFTP server configured in the ServiceUnit, or retrieve the SFTP server information in the XML message request (*Dynamic mode*).
\\

h2. Usage

When using the SFTP service, you can optionnaly define the SFTP connection information in your XML request. If you don't, the service unit parameters are used.


To configure the SFTP connection in your XML message request, you have to provide a connection element.
\\ {code:lang=xml}
...
<!--Optional:-->
         <ver:connection>
            <ver:server>?</ver:server>
            <ver:port>?</ver:port>
            <ver:user>?</ver:user>

            <!--Optional:-->
            <ver:password>?</ver:password>
            <ver:folder>?</ver:folder>
            <ver:passphrase>?</ver:passphrase>
            <ver:private-key>?</ver:private-key>
         </ver:connection>
...
{code}
{info}Operation need to be call explicitely in the form : \{service-namespace}operation

Example : \{[http://petals.ow2.org/components/sftp/version-1]}put{info}


h3. Put Operation

When the put operation is set on the incoming IN message, the component write the XML message to the SFTP server.
\\

The IN message looks like :

<ver:filename>file name on the server</ver:filename>
<!--Optional:-->
<ver:connection>
...
</ver:connection>
</ver:put>
{code}
The service does not return a message.

The service might return an error when an element in the request is missing or if the SFTP connection failed.

The available exchange pattern is : *InOnly*.
\\

h3. MPut Operation

When the mput operation is set on the incoming IN message, the component write the attachments on the SFTP server.

The IN message looks like :

<ver:filename>file name to retrieve</ver:filename>
<!--Optional:-->
<ver:connection>
...
</ver:connection>
</ver:get>
{code}
The OUT message returned to the consumer is the content of the XML file
\\

The service might return a Fault when an element in the request is missing or if the SFTP connection failed
\\

The available exchange patterns is : *InOut*.

{info}Only xml file could be processed otherwise an error will be raised.{info}



h3. GetAsAttachment Operation

When the get operation is set on the incoming IN message, the component retrieve ONE file from the SFTP server and return it as an attachment.

{code}
The service might return a Fault when an element in the request is missing or if the SFTP connection failed

The available exchange pattern is : *InOut*.



h3. MGet Operation

When the mget operation is set on the incoming IN message, the component retrieves files from the SFTP server, according to the file names (or filters) set in the XML request.
\\
There is no recursivity, sub folders are ignored.

Each file is set in the OUT message as an attachment. The IN message looks like :
\\
{code:lang=xml}<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

h2. Configuration

{note:title=Put XML content or send SFTP commands to the SFTP server}
PROVIDE SERVICE : Expose an external service in the JBI environment to put XML messages or send SFTP commands on an SFTP server
Petals SFTP binding component allows JBI consumers to send XML messages to an SFTP server. A JBI endpoint is registered into the JBI environment, and is linked to an SFTP server, with a configured user/password. When the SFTP component receives a message exchange from Petals platform, the XML content of the message is put on the SFTP server.
The component can also provide a generic SFTP service. This service allows the consumer to call SFTP commands. This service can either connects to an SFTP server configured in the ServiceUnit, or retrieves the SFTP server information in the XML message request.
To use this generic service, the consumer has to call explicitely the{service namespace}get/mget/put/mput/dir operations.
{note}

h3. Service Unit descriptor

The service unit is configurable via its extensions in the jbi.xml file:
Excample of a Service Unit descriptor to provide a SFTP service:
{code:lang=xml}
