Use Example

To Download

var sftp        = new JJsftp("host", "user", "password"),
    localPath   = "String/Path/To/Place/The/Download"
    filelist    = [{
          remote    : "/Path/To/Remote/File.*"
        , local     : localPath+"file.*"
    },{
          remote    : "/Path/To/Another/Remote/File.*"
        , local     : localPath+"anotherFile.*"
    }];

    sftp.downloadList(filelist, function(data){
        /* Wow everything goes good, but just in case verify data.success */
    }, function(error){
        /* Wow something goes wrong, check the error.message */       
    });

To Upload is the same but calling upload or uploadList and by default will override a file if exists in server

Of course if you want, you could add any of the JJsftp events to document and listen the progress of the download by example

Know Issues

• upload does not work on iOS (Yet)
• cancel does not work on iOS (Yet), therefore SFTPActionCancell is never trigger.
