(PECL)

ssh2_sftp_stat —
Stat a file on a remote filesystem
Descriptionarray ssh2_sftp_stat ( resource sftp, string path )

Stats a file on the remote filesystem following any symbolic links.
This function is similar to using the stat() function
with the ssh2.sftp:// wrapper in PHP5
and returns the same values. See the documentation for
stat() for details on the values which may be returned.

Example 1. Stating a file via SFTP

$connection = ssh2_connect('shell.example.com', 22);
ssh2_auth_password($connection, 'username', 'password');
 
$sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection);
$statinfo = ssh2_sftp_stat($sftp, '/path/to/file');
 
$filesize = $statinfo['size'];
$group = $statinfo['gid'];
$owner = $statinfo['uid'];
$atime = $statinfo['atime'];
$mtime = $statinfo['mtime'];
$mode = $statinfo['mode'];
