# trzsz
`trzsz` ( trz / tsz ) is a simple file transfer tools, similar to `lrzsz` ( rz / sz ), and compatible with `tmux`.
Website: [https://trzsz.github.io](https://trzsz.github.io)
[](https://choosealicense.com/licenses/mit/)
[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/trzsz/)
[](https://trzsz.github.io/cn/)
## Why?
Considering `laptop -> hostA -> hostB -> docker -> tmux`, using `scp` or `sftp` is inconvenience.
In this case, `lrzsz` ( rz / sz ) is convenient to use, but unfortunately it's not compatible with `tmux`.
`tmux` is not going to support rz / sz ( [906](https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/906), [1439](https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/1439) ), and creating a new tools is much easier than patching `tmux`.
## Advantage
* Support **tmux**, including tmux normal mode, and tmux command mode integrated with iTerm2.
* Support **transfer directories**, `trz -d` to upload directories, `tsz -d xxx` to download xxx directories.
* Support **Windows server**, not only can run on Windows client, but also can run on Windows ssh server.
* Support **native terminal**, does not require terminal to support, just use `trzsz ssh x.x.x.x` to login.
* Support **web terminal**, transfer files and directories between local and remote servers over the web.
* Support **drag to upload**, drag and drop files and directories to the terminal to upload to the remote server.
* Support **progress bar**, shows the current transferring file name, progress, size, speed, remaining time, etc.
* Better **interactive experience**, shows the transfer results or errors friendly, `ctrl + c` to stop gracefully.
## Installation
### On the server
* with Python3
```
sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade trzsz
```
* with Python2
```
sudo python2 -m pip install --upgrade trzsz
```
* with Homebrew
```
brew update
brew install trzsz
```
* with Node.js
```
sudo npm install -g trzsz
```
* or install trzsz written in Go
Check [https://github.com/trzsz/trzsz-go](https://github.com/trzsz/trzsz-go)
Can be installed without `sudo`, just add the installation path ( e.g. `~/.local/bin` ) to the `PATH` environment.
### Supported Terminals
* [iTerm2](https://iterm2.com/) -- check [the trzsz-iterm2 installation](https://trzsz.github.io/iterm2).
* [tabby](https://tabby.sh/) -- install the [tabby-trzsz](https://github.com/trzsz/tabby-trzsz) plugin.
* [electerm](https://electerm.github.io/electerm/) -- upgrade to `1.19.0` or higher.
* [ttyd](https://github.com/tsl0922/ttyd) -- upgrade to `1.7.3` or higher, and start with `-t enableTrzsz=true`, use `https` unless localhost.
* [trzsz-go](https://github.com/trzsz/trzsz-go) -- supports all terminals that support a local shell.
* [trzsz.js](https://github.com/trzsz/trzsz.js) -- making webshell in browser and electron terminal supports `trzsz`.
*Does your terminal supports `trzsz` as well? Please let me know. I would love to have it on the list.*
## Trzsz Manual
#### `trz` upload files to the remote server
```
usage: trz [-h] [-v] [-q] [-y] [-b] [-e] [-d] [-B N] [-t N] [path]
Receive file(s), similar to rz and compatible with tmux.
positional arguments:
path path to save file(s). (default: current directory)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-q, --quiet quiet (hide progress bar)
-y, --overwrite yes, overwrite existing file(s)
-b, --binary binary transfer mode, faster for binary files
-e, --escape escape all known control characters
-d, --directory transfer directories and files
-B N, --bufsize N max buffer chunk size (1K<=N<=1G). (default: 10M)
-t N, --timeout N timeout ( N seconds ) for each buffer chunk.
N <= 0 means never timeout. (default: 20)
```
#### `tsz` download files from the remote server
```
usage: tsz [-h] [-v] [-q] [-y] [-b] [-e] [-d] [-B N] [-t N] file [file ...]
Send file(s), similar to sz and compatible with tmux.
positional arguments:
file file(s) to be sent
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-q, --quiet quiet (hide progress bar)
-y, --overwrite yes, overwrite existing file(s)
-b, --binary binary transfer mode, faster for binary files
-e, --escape escape all known control characters
-d, --directory transfer directories and files
-B N, --bufsize N max buffer chunk size (1K<=N<=1G). (default: 10M)
-t N, --timeout N timeout ( N seconds ) for each buffer chunk.
N <= 0 means never timeout. (default: 20)
```
#### Trouble shooting
* If `tmux` is not running on the remote server, but on the local computer, or on a middle server.
* Option 1: Use `tmux -CC` integration with iTerm2, please refer to [iTerm2 tmux Integration](https://trzsz.github.io/tmuxcc).
* Option 2: Install [trzsz-go](https://github.com/trzsz/trzsz-go) on the local computer, and `alias ssh="trzsz ssh"` for convenience.
* If an error occurs, and `trzsz` is hanging up.
* Press `control + c` to stop `trz` or `tsz` process on the server.
* For iTerm2 users, press `command + option + shift + r` to stop [iTerm2 Coprocesses](https://iterm2.com/documentation-coprocesses.html).
* If `trz -b` binary upload fails, and login to server using `telnet` or `docker exec`.
* Try to escape all known control characters, e.g., `trz -eb`.
* If `trz -b` or `tsz -b` binary transfer fails, and login to server using `expect`.
* Try to `export LC_CTYPE=C` before the `expect` script. e.g.:
```
#!/bin/sh
export LC_CTYPE=C
expect -c '
spawn ssh xxx
expect "xxx: "
send "xxx\n"
interact
'
```
