        public static void main(String[] args) {
                String hostName = "localhost";

                        FileObject localFile = manager.resolveFile(file.getAbsolutePath());

                        remoteFile.copyFrom(localFile, Selectors.SELECT_SELF);

                        System.out.println("File upload success");
                } catch (Exception e) {
                        throw new RuntimeException(e);
                } finally {
                        manager.close();
                }
        }
        
        // Establishing connection
        public static String createConnectionString(String hostName,
        String username, String password, String remoteFilePath) {
        return "sftp://" + username + ":" + password + "@" + hostName + "/"
                                       + remoteFilePath;
        }
        //  Method to setup default SFTP config:
        public static FileSystemOptions createDefaultOptions()
                        throws FileSystemException {
                // Create SFTP options
                FileSystemOptions opts = new FileSystemOptions();

                // SSH Key checking
                SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setStrictHostKeyChecking(
                                opts, "no");

                // Root directory set to user home
                SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setUserDirIsRoot(opts, true);

                // Timeout is count by Milliseconds
                SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setTimeout(opts, 10000);

                return opts;
        }
}

 

Note : Setting the UserDirIsRoot to true , make you to upload file/ Create new folder in current directory. SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setUserDirIsRoot(opts, true);

  Setting it to false , enables you to upload file in any path from root directory.
