event listeners for low level api are confusing to use

[orgicus]

Hi,

I've tried using the low level api for a download and attached all the listeners :

var client = new Client();
client.defaults({
        host:'IP_HERE',
        username:'USER_HERE',
        password:'PASS_HERE'
});

                client.on('transfer',function (buffer, uploaded, total) { console.log(buffer,uploaded,total,new Date()); });
                client.on('connect',function(){ console.log("on connect",new Date()) });
                client.on('ready',function(){ console.log("on ready",new Date()) });
                client.on('error',function(err){ console.error("on error",err,new Date()) });
                client.on('end',function(){ console.log("on end",new Date()) });
                client.on('close',function(){ console.log("on close",new Date()) });
                client.on('mkdir',function(dir){ console.log("on mkdir",dir,new Date()) });
                client.on('write',function(src){ console.log("on write",src,new Date()) });
                client.on('read',function(src){ console.log("on read",src,new Date()); downloadCompleteHandler(); });

client.download(filename,'./files/'+filename,function(err){ 
                        if(err) console.error(err); 
                });

I only see console messages for 'connect', 'ready' at the start, un-intuitively 'read' at the same time as the download callback, then, after I call close() on the client, 'end' and 'close' trigger.

'transfer' does not trigger at all.

Unless I'm not using the library properly, the events should be better explained in the repo's readme.

var client = new Client({ host: config.host, username: config.username, privateKey: config.privateKey, });

client.on('transfer', function (buffer, uploaded, total) { console.log(buffer, uploaded, total, new Date()); });

scp(config.localPath, { host: config.host, username: config.username, privateKey: config.privateKey, path: config.path }, client, err => { spinner.stop(); if (!err) { console.log(chalk.green("部署完毕")) } else { console.log("err", err) } })
