Smbclient - Send All Files in Directory

Transferring the Contents of a Folder Using smbclient

I had the answer with me all along!! I was under the impression that mput could only be used to transfer a directory, turns out that using mput * inside a directory will copy all the files located within that directory!

cd /home/user/binaries
smbclient //ip.address/directory$ password -W domain -U username << ENDOFMYSMBCOMMANDS
prompt
put *
exit
ENDOFMYSMBCOMMANDS

Going to leave this here for anyone else who gets stumped on this like me!

smbclient script putting several files with variable

I got the solution be myself:

cd /directory/with/files/to/copy
#Set Variable
reports=$(ls *)
for i in $reports ; do

    smbclient -U "srv\User"%pws //some/dir/bla/bla/bla << Commands
    cd another/dir/etc
    put $i
    exit
    Commands
    done

Thanks!

Recursive file search for designated extension

Here are some fairly straightforward tweaks to your code to get it to fill an ArrayList recursively. It isn't necessarily the most efficient way of doing this, as it gathers all filenames, and then throws away the ones that don't end with .mp4, but it should give you a straightforward place to start building from.

private void btnFileCountActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
    try (SMBClient client = new SMBClient()) {
        try (Connection connection = client.connect(SERVER)) {
            AuthenticationContext ac = new AuthenticationContext(USERNAME, PASSWORD.toCharArray(), WORKGROUP);
            try (Session session = connection.authenticate(ac)) {
                try (DiskShare share = (DiskShare) session.connectShare(SHARE)) {
                    List<String> files = new ArrayList<>();
                    listFiles(share, START_DIR, files);
                    files.removeIf(name -> !name.toLowerCase().endsWith(".mp4"));
                    files.forEach(System.out::println);
                }
            }
        }
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace(System.err);
    }
}

private void listFiles(DiskShare share, String path, Collection<String> files) {
    List<String> dirs = new ArrayList<>();
    String extPath = path.isEmpty() ? path : path + "\\";
    for (FileIdBothDirectoryInformation f : share.list(path)) {
        if ((f.getFileAttributes() & FileAttributes.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY.getValue()) != 0) {
            if (!isSpecialDir(f.getFileName())) {
                dirs.add(f.getFileName());
            }
        } else {
            files.add(extPath + f.getFileName());
        }
    }
    dirs.forEach(dir -> listFiles(share, extPath + dir, files));
}

private static boolean isSpecialDir(String fileName) {
    return fileName.equals(".") || fileName.equals("..");
}
