I am trying to use 

ssh2_scp_recv($connection, '/remote/directory', '/local/directory');

to get a remote directory, but I am getting the error:

Warning: ssh2_scp_recv(): Unable to receive remote file in /some-php-file.php on line 2.

It works if I use ssh2_scp_recv to get a single file.

Is this function supposed to work on directories? It wasn't clear from reading the docs.

You cannot use ssh2_scp_recv to get a directory. You can, however, use scandir using ssh2.sftp:// wrapper.
