SFTPGW CLI

Create a user

sftpgw.sh create-user --username robtest

This creates user with the defaults. But there’s no SSH key, so you won’t be able to log in with SFTP.

Create a user with an SSH public key

sftpgw.sh create-user --username robtest --pub-ssh "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQC9Rd6J+j2GR5/ox4+3xykJOAb7jUtaTQuAHfi5uz7gcfBguIJUcyOZrKm2ueaT8dfMaq10k/PpJWG3uPoKSgbIYG1PZ+yvfyj8pctPNcgerHxNq74iGWYlhgbIIoammNaNHUkAZHRVIHwtEqE7+BgE5Q+aerTRL6vrk2HJhvkPMDN4VclYzmsNfIMPkBL7T+KiL3H8grlR7i/x4Rd5+rccTLNPt+mj79YwMxo5TofcwUS+zMgHTI5zXBcIZKVj+TfXEyDxmPwiUn5PBCDU/epnDUd/5biUcO+27YUWGBBpxfGwCpBfTFDkpdng6ep7htOoTEw/Ta0uWtbPEJiJKnqv"

You should then be able to connect using your private key.

sftp -i private.key robtest@<ip address>

Create user with encryption option

By default, users are created with the SSE-S3 option enabled.

You can set this explicitly:

sftpgw.sh create-user --username robtest --s3-encryption-level 1

Create user with a custom S3 bucket location

If you wanted to upload the user’s files to s3://my-bucket-name/inbox, you can do this:

sftpgw.sh create-user --username robtest --bucket-name my-bucket-name --path inbox

Create user with shared and download directories

sftpgw.sh create-user --username robtest --download-dir TRUE --shared-dir TRUE
