I currently use the following flow to extract data collected on a data volume attached to my fly app:
Open Windows Powershell and navigate to directory
fly ssh sftp shell
get file.sqlite local_path.sqlite
exit
I want to automate this in R. I have tried using the ssh package. But when I run ssh_connect(fly@app_name) I get:
Error: libssh failure at ‘connect’: Socket error: disconnected
How can I automate this? Thanks!
I don’t use R, but I assume an SFTP package would be closer to what you want. Is this any good?
I am not wedded to R - a solution in python or any other language works as well.
How about fly sftp get --quiet /data/file.sqlite local_path.sqlite?
That’s the same underlying mechanism packaged into a single command, without an intermediate subshell…
(Use the real full path in place of /data/, of course.)
Works perfectly. Thank you!
