don't support SFTP

[yangweijie]

My server only has SFTP no FTP, I think it's better to have a type for SFTP which is also a popular transition way for file

SFTP will be added to the next release.

when is the SFTP support coming out

[mpbzh]

I can't give you a binding date, but the current master branch is already relatively stable and supports SFTP. Feel free to install that and provide some feedback.

on master branch, on defining sftp config i'm getting following error

Oops. This should not have happened.
Invalid log file type: "sftp" with 500 error.

Can you set line 33 in your composer.json to the following:

"syonix/log-viewer-lib": "dev-master"

And then run composer update and try again?

through sftp i'm able to access log files from user home dir

/home/sftp user dir/any files on this path

can i access files from

/var/log/ paths ????

[mpbzh]

So it works with the newer log-viewer-lib version? Good to hear!

Via SFTP you can only access files below the the directory which the SFTP user has access to. I assume that is what you mean by <sftp user dir>. Anything above that folder, like /var/log/ is not accessible, and we do not have any influence on this, as this is standard SFTP behavior.

You could however create a user that has access to the /var/log/ directory, but I strongly advise you to only set it to the subdirectory of a specific program due to security reasons!

Thank you :), also i would like to know is their any way i can grab part of file, like say last 100 lines of file through SFTP.

Not that I know of, the file system adapter that we use does not seem to support that. Please let me know if you find a way!
