remotefs is a library that provides a file system structure to work with all the most popular file transfer protocols.This is achieved through a trait calledRemoteFs which exposes methods to operate on the remote file system.Currently the library exposes a client forSftp,Scp,Ftp,WebDav,Kube andAws-s3 as external libraries.

As mentioned earlier, this library exposes a trait calledRemoteFs.This trait exposes several methods to operate on a remote file system via the chosen client.

Let's briefly go over which methods are available:

• connect: connect to the remote host.
• disconnect: disconnect from the remote host.
• is_connected: returns whether the client is connected to the remote host.
• append_file: append specified buffer to the specified file.
• append: open a file for append and returns a stream to write to it.
• change_dir: change the working directory to provided path.
• copy: copy a file from the specified source path to the specified destination.
• create_dir: create a directory with the specified file mode at the specified path.
• create_file: create a file at a specified path with the specified content.
• create: create a file and returns a stream to write to it.
• exec: executes a shell command.
• exists: checks whether file at specified path exists.
• list_dir: get entries at the provided path.
• mov: move a file from the specified source path to the specified destination.
• open_file: open a file for reading and fill the specified buffer with the file content.
• open: open a file and returns a stream to read it.
• pwd: get working directory.
• remove_dir_all: remove file/directory and all of its content.
• remove_dir: remove directory at the specified path. It fails if it is not an empty directory.
• remove_file: remove file at the specified path. It fails if it is not a file.
• setstat: set file metadata for file at the specified path.
• stat: get file information of file at the specified path.
• symlink: create a symlink at the specified path, pointing to the specified file.
