#+TITLE:    :tools upload
#+SUBTITLE: Map local directories to remotes via ssh/ftp
#+CREATED:  February 20, 2017
#+SINCE:    2.0.0

* Description :unfold:
Uses ~ssh-deploy~ to map a local folder to a remote one.

From the [[https://github.com/cjohansson/emacs-ssh-deploy/blob/master/README.md][ssh-deploy README]]:
#+begin_quote
The ssh-deploy plug-in for Emacs makes it possible to effortlessly deploy local files and directories to remote hosts via Tramp (including but not limited to SSH, SFTP, FTP). It tries to provide functions that can be easily used by custom scripts.

The idea for this plug-in was to mimic the behavior of PhpStorm deployment functionality.

 🔨 /This module's usage documentation is incomplete./ [[doom-contrib-module:][Complete it?]]
#+end_quote

Uses ~ssh-deploy~ to map a local folder to a remote one. Set
~ssh-deploy-root-remote~ and ~ssh-deploy-root-local~ in a =.dir-locals.el= file
to establish this mapping. E.g.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
((nil . ((ssh-deploy-root-local . "/local/path/to/project")
         (ssh-deploy-root-remote . "/ssh:user@server:/remote/project/")
         (ssh-deploy-on-explicit-save . t))))
#+end_src

#+begin_quote
 📌 ~ssh-deploy-root-local~ is optional, and will resort to ~doom-project-root~
    if unspecified.

Check out [[https://github.com/cjohansson/emacs-ssh-deploy#deployment-configuration-examples][Deployment configuration examples]] for some ideas of what's possible.

* Troubleshooting
** ~root-local~ and ~root-remote~ must match
The final directory names much match:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
((nil . ((ssh-deploy-root-local . "/local/path/to/example-project")
         (ssh-deploy-root-remote . "/ssh:user@server:/remote/example-project/")
