# curlsftpsink

This is a network sink that uses libcurl as a client to upload data to a SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) server.

## Example launch line

Upload a file to /home/john/sftp_tests/

     gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=/home/jdoe/some.file ! curlsftpsink  \
         file-name=some.file.backup  \
         user=john location=sftp://192.168.0.1/~/sftp_tests/  \
         ssh-auth-type=1 ssh-key-passphrase=blabla  \
         ssh-pub-keyfile=/home/jdoe/.ssh/id_rsa.pub  \
         ssh-priv-keyfile=/home/jdoe/.ssh/id_rsa  \
         create-dirs=TRUE
