README

sftp-count example

A minimal Cloud Foundry application that exposes:

• GET /sftp/count?destination=<name> — returns the number of files in the remote directory configured on the named BTP destination.
• GET /healthz — liveness check.

Prerequisites

• SAP BTP Cloud Foundry subaccount
• Cloud Connector connected to the subaccount with a virtual mapping for the SFTP host
• CF CLI installed and logged in to your CF org/space

Service instances

Create the required service instances (adjust plan names for your region):

cf create-service xsuaa application my-xsuaa
cf create-service connectivity lite my-connectivity
cf create-service destination lite my-destination

Update manifest.yml if your instance names differ.

Destination configuration

In the BTP Destination cockpit (or via the Destinations API), create a destination of type TCP / OnPremise with:

Field	Example value
Name	MY_SFTP_DEST
Type	TCP
Proxy Type	OnPremise
Host	sftp.corp.internal
Port	22
User (Additional Property)	sftpuser
RemotePath (Additional Property)	/incoming
sshKey (Additional Property)	-----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY----- ...

Build and push

cd examples/sftp-count
cf push

The go_buildpack will run go build . inside the workspace module layout.

Manual verification

After cf push succeeds:

APP_URL=$(cf app btp-go-sftp-count | grep routes | awk '{print $2}')

# Liveness check
curl https://${APP_URL}/healthz
# Expected: {"ok":true}

# File count
curl "https://${APP_URL}/sftp/count?destination=MY_SFTP_DEST"
# Expected: {"destination":"MY_SFTP_DEST","remotePath":"/incoming","count":42,"elapsedMs":312}

Compare the count value with what the reference service returns for the same destination to confirm identical behaviour.
