Bases: airflow.models.BaseOperator

SFTPOperator for transferring files from remote host to local or vice a versa. This operator uses ssh_hook to open sftp transport channel that serve as basis for file transfer.

Parameters
  • ssh_hook -- predefined ssh_hook to use for remote execution. Either ssh_hook or ssh_conn_id needs to be provided.

  • ssh_conn_id -- ssh connection id from airflow Connections. ssh_conn_id will be ignored if ssh_hook is provided.

  • remote_host -- remote host to connect (templated) Nullable. If provided, it will replace the remote_host which was defined in ssh_hook or predefined in the connection of ssh_conn_id.

  • local_filepath -- local file path to get or put. (templated)

  • remote_filepath -- remote file path to get or put. (templated)

  • operation -- specify operation 'get' or 'put', defaults to put

  • confirm -- specify if the SFTP operation should be confirmed, defaults to True

  • create_intermediate_dirs --

    create missing intermediate directories when copying from remote to local and vice-versa. Default is False.

    Example: The following task would copy file.txt to the remote host at /tmp/tmp1/tmp2/ while creating tmp,``tmp1`` and tmp2 if they don't exist. If the parameter is not passed it would error as the directory does not exist.

    put_file = SFTPOperator(
        task_id="test_sftp",
        ssh_conn_id="ssh_default",
        local_filepath="/tmp/file.txt",
        remote_filepath="/tmp/tmp1/tmp2/file.txt",
        operation="put",
        create_intermediate_dirs=True,
        dag=dag
    )
    

template_fields :Sequence[str] = ['local_filepath', 'remote_filepath', 'remote_host'][source]
execute(self, context)[source]

This is the main method to derive when creating an operator. Context is the same dictionary used as when rendering jinja templates.

Refer to get_template_context for more context.
