In that case, we can use the sublime SFTP package to work with remote servers where we can push (Local to remote) or pull (Remote to Local) the codes/files using file transfer protocol. Most of our development and deployment work will be happening in the remote server or cloud servers. I suggest you refer to our previous article about the installation and configuration of sublime text 3. To format it in more readable format, use Convert List Action, as in the provided demo task.Īlternatively, use the Synchronize Folders Action to sync (push, pull, or two-way syncing modes) local and shared folders.This article is the second in a series about sublime text and how to set it up for remote development using the SFTP package. Synchronize Directories Action outputs a list of files that uses pipe character as a separator. Task Scheduler Trigger can be configured to not send emails during night-time or on weekends, to prevent clutter in the inbox. However, Automation Workshop can access FTP & SFTP, WebDAV, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, and DigitalOcean Spaces storage servers, or UNC network shares automatically.
In this example the invoices can be accessed via SFTP server. By adding If Action, the sending of email can be suppressed if no files were transferred. In the example above, an email is always sent, even when there are no new files to synchronize. Send Email Action sends messages to accounting department with information about invoices from the last hour. Synchronize Directories Action automatically looks for new files on the remote server (similarly like WinSCP or robocopy command, but for SFTP), and when found, it transfers them securely to the local computer or server. Task Scheduler Trigger starts the task every hour. Each time the email is sent, the message body contains data from the last download session. Using Variable Wizard feature, we add the current date and time to the email subject, and two dynamic variables containing the count and the list of files transferred. The last step is to add Send Email Action. The Transfer mode must be set to Download, as we want our invoice files to be transferred from the remote server to the local machine.
Then add Synchronize Directories Action, and set the local and remote server directories.
How to set up the automated file transfer? Add Connect to SFTP Action, and enter your server DNS name or an IP address, along with a username and password. The job is launched by built-in Task Scheduler Trigger, that must be added to the Task. The Synchronize remote directories Action automatically scans for new, modified and deleted files, and detects which files must be transferred, thus reducing the time and data amount needed for automatic sync.
