Hello everyone, during tests I’m uploading and downloading a lot of files, and I was curious if there is a way to show console progress bar for file transfer when sshlibrary.Put File and Get File are used. Thanks.

Hi @utt6161,
as there’s nothing about this in the documentation I doubt it, unless you fork sshlibrary and modify it to to this.
Usually robot framework keywords don’t output anything to the console, so I would have been surprised if it did.
You could wrap the Put File and Get File keywords with your own custom keywords that use Log with console=true, log starting to download (or upload) file before and done after, maybe even use Get Time to include the time in those messages, it’s not a progress bar but it might be better than nothing.
hope that helps,
Dave.

Note that if the custom keyword is based on SSHlibrary keyword Execute Command then it is possible to use output_during_execution=True argument to get some output during the execution.
