Sending Files via a Static IP with Ruby SFTP
Secure FTP allows you to transfer data securely between servers.
You can use the Ruby SFTP library to route SFTP transfers via XLRoutes allowing you to lock down access to our Static IP addresses:
require 'net/ssh'
require 'uri'
require 'net/sftp'
require 'net/ssh/proxy/http'
xlroutes = URI(ENV["xlroutes_URL"])
proxy = Net::SSH::Proxy::HTTP.new(xlroutes.host,xlroutes.port, :user => xlroutes.user,:password=>xlroutes.password)
Net::SSH.start('1.1.1.1','sftpuser',
{:port => 22,
:proxy => proxy,
:password => 'sftppw'}) do |ssh|
ssh.sftp.connect do |sftp|
sftp.dir.foreach("/") do |entry|
puts entry.longname
end
end
end
