sftp

Easy to use SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) server.

Usage

Define users as last arguments to docker run, one user per argument
(syntax: user:pass[:e][:[uid][:gid]]).
- You must set custom UID for your users if you want them to make changes to your mounted volumes with permissions matching your host filesystem.
Mount volumes in user's home folder.
- The users are chrooted to their home directory, so you must mount the volumes in separate directories inside the user's home directory (/home/user/mounted-directory).

Examples

Single user and volume

docker run \
    -v /host/share:/home/foo/share \
    -p 2222:22 -d atmoz/sftp \
    foo:123:1001

Multiple users and volumes

docker run \
    -v /host/share:/home/foo/share \
    -v /host/documents:/home/foo/documents \
    -v /host/http:/home/bar/http \
    -p 2222:22 -d atmoz/sftp \
    foo:123:1001 \
    bar:abc:1002

Encrypted password

Add :e behind password to mark it as encrypted. Use single quotes.

docker run \
    -v /host/share:/home/foo/share \
    -p 2222:22 -d atmoz/sftp \
    'foo:$1$0G2g0GSt$ewU0t6GXG15.0hWoOX8X9.:e:1001'

Tip: you can use makepasswd to generate encrypted passwords:
echo -n 123 | makepasswd --crypt-md5 --clearfrom -

Using SSH key (without password)

docker run \
    -v /host/id_rsa.pub:/home/foo/.ssh/authorized_keys:ro \
    -v /host/share:/home/foo/share \
    -p 2222:22 -d atmoz/sftp \
    foo::1001
