Upload with CURL

[dave08]

Hi!
I would like to know if it is possible to upload to an Asustore AS5304T using a command line instead of using the web interface.
This is because I would like to able to transfer huge datasets directly from a non GUI server to the NAS.
Thanks!
Regards.

Hi,

Open a terminal (ssh as root or any administrators) and use command line tools :

for ex.
Delivered with ADM
... curl, wget, sftp

Using Entware APKG that provide +2500 packages including
... GNU version of curl, wget, sftp (openssh-sftp-client)
... extra ftp client (scriptable), webdab fs and ssh fs able to mount remote folder as local mountpoint.
... etc. etc.

lot of them ADM and Entware are scriptable ... so can be start in background using screen (ADM) or tmux (Entware) so you can quit and stay it running in the background.

Philippe.

Thanks for the reply. I don't even need root access to the NAS, as you suggested.
I would like to know the method/URL to call from a client PC to be able to upload via https, using their respective credentials.
something like ...

curl -i -X POST host:port/post-file \
-H "Content-Type: text/xml" \
--data-binary "@path/to/file"

Thanks

I do not believe this is possible via https. You need to access the NAS via SSH as father.mande described above. Access via https is limited to the GUI.
