Yep. Thanks for the note.

I discovered ArgumentParser a few months back and have been slowly re-working into my examples.

Great for parameter validations.

Nice example - Just a little note - perhaps you will find parser=argparse.ArgumentParser() useful when you take parameters from the command line in python - i do it like this

parser=argparse.ArgumentParser()

parser.add_argument('--cmd', help='command to run')

parser.add_argument('--stmf', help='stream file')

....

args=parser.parse_args()

... then use it like ....

cmd = args.cmd

stmf = args.stmf

Here's an upload and download script sample for pysftp

https://github.com/richardschoen/PythonSamples/blob/master/ibmi/pysftpupload
.py

https://github.com/richardschoen/PythonSamples/blob/master/ibmi/pysftpdownlo
ad.py

It can be called from a CL/RPG job by using the QSHEXEC command I created to
run PASE jobs from classic IBM i jobs:

Hello all,

I have been following up on the posts regarding sFTP and the following was
quoted by John Yeoug :

?You could also switch to using API-style programming with, say, Python and
pysftp. That tends to be much more flexible and less brittle.?

My question.. do you have a python example using pysftp ?

How are you invoking the call to your python script? are you calling it
directly via CLLE or are you running it as a service somewhere.

If you are invoking with CLLE or RPGLE then please post an example if
available.

Many thanks

Mit freundlichen Gr??en / Kind regards / Bien ? vous,
