public SFTPFileSystemProvider()

Method Detail

getScheme

public String getScheme()

Returns the URI scheme that identifies this provider: sftp.

Specified by:

getScheme in class FileSystemProvider

newFileSystem

public FileSystem newFileSystem(URI uri,
                                Map<String,?> env)
                         throws IOException

Constructs a new FileSystem object identified by a URI.

The URI must have a scheme equal to getScheme(), and no query or fragment. Authentication credentials can be set either through the URI's user information, or through the given environment map, preferably through SFTPEnvironment. The default directory can be set either through the URI's path or through the given environment map, preferably through SFTPEnvironment.

This provider allows multiple file systems per host, but only one file system per user on a host. Once a file system is closed, this provider allows a new file system to be created with the same URI and credentials as the closed file system.

Specified by:

newFileSystem in class FileSystemProvider

Throws:

IOException

getFileSystem

public FileSystem getFileSystem(URI uri)

Returns an existing FileSystem created by this provider.

The URI must have a scheme equal to getScheme(), and no non-empty path, query or fragment. Because the original credentials were possibly provided through an environment map, the URI can contain user information, although this should not contain a password for security reasons.

Once a file system is closed, this provider will throw a FileSystemNotFoundException.

Specified by:

getFileSystem in class FileSystemProvider

getPath

public Path getPath(URI uri)

Return a Path object by converting the given URI. The resulting Path is associated with a FileSystem that already exists or is constructed automatically.

The URI must have a scheme equal to getScheme(), and no fragment. Because the original credentials were possibly provided through an environment map, the URI can contain user information, although for security reasons this should only contain a password to support automatically creating file systems.

If no matching file system existed yet, a new one is created. The default environment is used for this, to allow configuring the resulting file system. URI specific settings can also be provided through the query; see usages of SFTPEnvironment.QueryParam and SFTPEnvironment.QueryParams for the possible query parameters.

Remember to close any newly created file system.

Specified by:

getPath in class FileSystemProvider

newInputStream

public InputStream newInputStream(Path path,
                                  OpenOption... options)
                           throws IOException

Opens a file, returning an input stream to read from the file. This method works in exactly the manner specified by the Files.newInputStream(Path, OpenOption...) method.

Note: while the returned input stream is not closed, the path's file system will have one available connection fewer. It is therefore essential that the input stream is closed as soon as possible.

Overrides:

newInputStream in class FileSystemProvider

Throws:

IOException

newOutputStream

public OutputStream newOutputStream(Path path,
                                    OpenOption... options)
                             throws IOException

Opens or creates a file, returning an output stream that may be used to write bytes to the file. This method works in exactly the manner specified by the Files.newOutputStream(Path, OpenOption...) method.

Note: while the returned output stream is not closed, the path's file system will have one available connection fewer. It is therefore essential that the output stream is closed as soon as possible.

Overrides:

newOutputStream in class FileSystemProvider

Throws:

IOException

newByteChannel

public SeekableByteChannel newByteChannel(Path path,
                                          Set<? extends OpenOption> options,
                                          FileAttribute<?>... attrs)
                                   throws IOException

Opens or creates a file, returning a seekable byte channel to access the file. This method works in exactly the manner specified by the Files.newByteChannel(Path, Set, FileAttribute...) method.

This method does not support any file attributes to be set. If any file attributes are given, an UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown.

Note: while the returned channel is not closed, the path's file system will have one available connection fewer. It is therefore essential that the channel is closed as soon as possible.

Specified by:

newByteChannel in class FileSystemProvider

Throws:

IOException

newDirectoryStream

Specified by:

Creates a new directory. This method works in exactly the manner specified by the Files.createDirectory(Path, FileAttribute...) method.
