Mr. Bond is indeed on a tear. SFTP 1.11.3 installed from PC 2.0 in ST3 on OS X. I copied my ST2 Packages/User/sftp_servers directory and SFTP.sublime-settings file into ST3ā€™s parallel location, and all seems well. That makes ST2 vestigial to my world. Good.

Hi,

Iā€™m pretty new to Sublime Text and of course also Sublime FTP plugin - and thumbs up for this great plugin.

I have set xx to true. When I open Sublime Text, make changes to a file and hit save, I get the error ā€œFile not foundā€ and in the console I get the following: ā€œValidating remote folder ā€œ/public_html/ā€ ā€¦ failure (File not found)ā€. Afterwards I get a list of files and directories in the public_html folder. I donā€™t get the error the next time I hit save while the connection is still open. This time it says: ā€œValidating remote folder ā€œ/public_html/ā€ ā€¦ successā€.

It probably hasnā€™t anything to do with the plugin. But do you have any idea on whatā€™s going on?

/Carl

Is there a way to whitelist files instead of using ignore_regexes? I just want that one particular file always gets uploaded on save. Letā€™s say the file is called ā€œtest-file.txtā€. I guess I can do that with ignore_regexes and negative lookahead but I have problems putting that together. Thanks!

This looks exactly like what I want how ever I canā€™t get it to connect to my Azure site.
Can it have anything to do with user names on Azure having a \ in them? I have added a double \ instead as it canā€™t even be saved with a single.
Should the host start with "ftp:// or without?

Thanks for creating this, hope I can get it working.

Hello !

Thx for good work!

But in some multi-user usage on remote, I think another option may be usefull: check for remote modification of file before upload it to Remote!!

Explanation:

  1. MisterA download a file from Remote to Local
  2. MisterB edit the file and save the modification on Remote
  3. MisterA edit the file and save the modification on Local and upload it on Remote
  4. Result: MisterB loose his changesā€¦

Solution:
Compare the ā€œRemote last modification dateā€ of the file with the ā€œDownload on local dateā€ of the file (Hours+Minutes+Seconds) and propose an action to do for the user, like VIM:

WARNING: The file has been changed since reading it!!!
Do you really want to write to it (y/n)?

I have tried to find a solution with Remote options "confirm_overwrite_newer": true, without successā€¦

PS: For furtherā€¦ I imagine you can also ask user for a merge solution!

Thanks!

Hey there, thanks for this plugin.
Itā€™s the best plugin iā€™ve ever used in sublime text and in any text editor.
This is really awesome.
Iā€™ve a question thought, if you can make it so, that if i sync from remote to local or local to remote, it would automaticlly sync without any premisson needed.
Since iā€™ve big projects to manage and i need to wait to much until the sync is done and press yes.
Can you make it optional, i would really appreciate it.
Thank you.

Hi,
I am a big fan of Sublime SFTP and planning to buy it but wondering if the plugin is actually dead or not as the last time the plugin was updated was in 2015 (2 years back) and also also the emails I send about it wasnā€™t answered at all.

The author of the SFTP plugin is @wbond, who is also one of the Sublime developers, and there was recently a lot of work going into finishing and releasing Sublime Text 3. As such, one potential reason for not hearing back might just be that he was extremely busy (there are only two Sublime developers who have to wear a lot of hats).

I canā€™t speak to itā€™s being dead or not since Iā€™m not the author, but I bought it and use it fairly regularly and Iā€™ve never run into any problems with it. On the whole my assumption would be that it hasnā€™t been updated primarily because itā€™s so stable and not a lot has changed in Sublime or FTP/SFTP that would warrant new changes.

Thatā€™s just my own opinion, however.

No, it isnā€™t dead, but most of my time working on it consists of:

  1. Helping people find lost licenses
  2. Helping people find their license because it got blocked as spam
  3. Debugging issues that canā€™t seem to be reproduced
  4. Working on the next big version, specifically related to the TLS layer and shared SSL session reuse between the control and data connection. Currently the Python ecosystem doesnā€™t have an option for this, so Iā€™ve spent the past two years building a set of cryptography packages from the ground-up for Python to allow me to provide proper TLS (SSL) support, with session reuse, proper certificate validation, etc.

Iā€™m also planning on doing some updates to improve performance for slow FTP connections. Overall it is pretty stable, but unfortunately there are enough support emails that I donā€™t always get to all of them, and I have to prioritize, otherwise Iā€™d spend all available time emailing, and none actually moving forward.

If you send me another email about your issue, people who are more persistent tend to be more likely to get a response. I feel bad that is the way it is, but unfortunately there are only so many hours in the day, and my family and full-time work have to take priority.

@wbond: Any chance we might expect sidebar view of remote folders? I am generally very happy with the plugin, just sometimes when there is a need to open more files it can be really painful. I would be happy renew the license of course. I also actually like that Atom FTP plugin downloads only files I am working on, so it is good for Git tracking, maybe something like that?

Hi.
I thank you for making this plugin.

Hi, I really love the environment of sublime - it is really well designed and smooth. I read through the wall here and I can see a few other fellows were pointing out what I also would like toā€¦
I recently joined to mac family - before I used windows at work and ubuntu at home. I am in love with notepad++ as it gives everything I need but I could not find any app on mac what has the same functions on the same way. Well, TextWrangler is not that bad but as soon as I discovered sublime, I have forgotten about TextWrangler :slight_smile:
The only one thing I really miss is to be able to browse server in side panel. That would make this package to be the absolute best. I will definitely purchase it - does not matter how much the price will go upā€¦

(I have tried to mount the servers and open them as a folder - but it isnā€™t that good in terms of speed and I do not really want to mount them each time I need to work on any of them)

Thanks for your hard work - I really appreciate it :wink: Well Done
