Re: Net::SSH2 list files

You have to call Net::SSH2::SFTP::opendir method to get a directory handle object and then read the entries from it.

An easy solution would be to use Net::SFTP::Foreign with the Net::SSH2 backend Net::SFTP::Foreign::Backend::Net_SSH2.

Thanks for replying salva! The problem I have is that I can't figure out a way to read the entries. I can't use Net::SFTP::Foreign at all since I'm on a windows and cygwin is not responding to my pleading :D Is there some other way to get this information from the opendir command?	[reply]

`# untested! my $sftp = $ssh2->sftp; my $dh = $sftp->opendir($dir); while (my %entries = $dh->read) { print "$_\n" for keys %entries; }` [download] BTW, Net::SFTP::Foreign works with ActiveState and Strawberry versions of perl.	[reply] [d/l]

When I run it I just get: uid, mode, mtime, name, atime, size, gid, uid Over and over again instead of getting the 3 files in the folder I defined :( Still thank you for trying! Net::SFTP::Foreign needs IO/Pty.pm which is only supported on windows if you run it with cygwin which for me still creates a bunch of problems :(	[reply]
