JADE profile(s) with Credential Store

Setup global credential Store profile

A profile definition for Server to Server transfer, from a sftp to a ftp server:

 [Keepass_DataBase_WithPassword]
 use_credential_Store     = true
 CredentialStore_FileName = C:\sos-berlin.com\jade\credential-store\keepassX-test.kdb
 CredentialStore_password = *********

Setup JADE profile for FTP

  [ReceiveUsingKeePass]
 source_CredentialStore_KeyPath = sos/server/wilma.sos
 source_include                 = Keepass_DataBase_WithPassword
 source_dir                     = /tmp/test/jade/out
 source_make_Dirs               = true
 source_transfer_mode           = ascii
 target_protocol                = local
 target_dir                     = $\{TEMP\}/jade/in
 operation                      = copy
 file_spec                      = \.txt$
 transfer_mode                  = ascii

Setup JADE profile for SFTP

An Example Transfer Profile

A profile definition for Server to Server transfer, from a sftp to a ftp server:

 [ftp_server_2_server]
 ssh_auth_method=password
 
 source_user=kb
 source_password=*****
 source_ssh_auth_method=password
 source_host=wilma.sos
 source_protocol=sftp
 source_port=22
 
 target_user=test
 target_password=*****
 target_host=8of9.sos
 target_protocol=ftp
 target_port=21
 
 file_spec=^.*\.txt$
 operation=copy

In this example all files with the file name extension ".txt" should be transferred from the server "wilma" via sftp to the server 8of9 by ftp. the folders are not explicitly specified and therefore the "home" folders of the user are selected.

Profile fragments

To make the profile more reusable and readable it is possible to reuse profiles snipets in the way like this:

 [wilma]
 user=kb
 password=*****
 ssh_auth_method=password
 host=wilma.sos
 protocol=sftp
 port=22

 [8of9]
 user=test
 password=*****
 host=8of9.sos
 protocol=ftp
 port=21

 [globals]
 log_filename=$\{TEMP\}/sosftphistory.log

The profiles for wilma and 8of9 are defined only once. They could be used as many time as needed in different transfer profiles. There is a "globals" profile as well.

Define Profiles using the include directive

Now we will specify the transfer profile again:

 [ftp_server_2_server]
 source_include=wilma
 target_include=8of9
 operation=copy
 file_spec=^.*\.txt$
   
 [ftp_more]
 target_include=wilma
 source_include=8of9
 operation=move
 file_spec=^.*\.(txt|pdf|dat)$
 source_folder=/outbound/daily
 target_folder=/inbound/transfer

The "include" parameter will include the named profiles in the order they are defined. In the first example wilma will be included as source and in the second example as target. The "globals" profile is included automatically, no need to specifiy it in an include parameter.
The profiles must be defined in the same settings file.

For infos about the parameters see the parameter documentation on jadeParameterReference.
