ssh2_sftp_mkdir — Create a directory

Description

ssh2_sftp_mkdir(
    resource $sftp,
    string $dirname,
    int $mode = 0777,
    bool $recursive = false
): bool

Creates a directory on the remote file server with permissions set to mode.

This function is similar to using mkdir() with the ssh2.sftp:// wrapper.

Parameters

sftp: An SSH2 SFTP resource opened by ssh2_sftp().
dirname: Path of the new directory.
mode: Permissions on the new directory. The actual mode is affected by the current umask.
recursive: If recursive is true any parent directories required for dirname will be automatically created as well.

Return Values

Returns true on success or false on failure.

Examples

Example #1 Creating a directory on a remote server

<?php
$connection = ssh2_connect('shell.example.com', 22);
ssh2_auth_password($connection, 'username', 'password');
$sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection);

ssh2_sftp_mkdir($sftp, '/home/username/newdir');
/* Or:  mkdir("ssh2.sftp://$sftp/home/username/newdir"); */
?>

we can first check for directory exists and create a new directory

       if (is_dir("ssh2.sftp://intval($sftp)/some_directory/archive/")) {
                    mkdir("ssh2.sftp://intval($sftp)/some_directory/archive/",0777, true);
                }
