RemoveDirectory Method

Remove a directory specified by DirName from an SFTP server.

Syntax

sftp.removeDirectory(dirName, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

A directory with path specified by DirName is deleted on the SFTP server. DirName is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to RemotePath.

If there is no SSH session in place, one is automatically created by the component first.
