Transfer files - Rigbox Docs

Prerequisites

Register an SSH key, start the workspace, and install jq locally. Work from your own terminal.

Find the target

TARGET=$(rig workspace ssh-info --workspace WORKSPACE --output json | jq -r .ssh_target)
ssh "$TARGET"

Exit the SSH session before running the local transfer commands below. Use a development directory for manually copied source; incremental app releases manage their own directories.

Copy files

scp ./notes.txt "$TARGET:/home/developer/notes.txt"
scp "$TARGET:/home/developer/notes.txt" ./notes.downloaded.txt
rsync -av ./project/ "$TARGET:/home/developer/project/"

Compare the downloaded file with the original. If permissions fail, choose a path owned by the workspace user rather than using a system or managed release directory. Use local deployment when the goal is to update an app rather than transfer working files.
