Object
This class implements the File Transfer Protocol. If you have used a command-line FTP program, and are familiar with the commands, you will be able to use this class easily. Some extra features are included to take advantage of Ruby's style and strengths.
require 'net/ftp'
ftp = Net::FTP.new('ftp.netlab.co.jp') ftp.login files = ftp.chdir('pub/lang/ruby/contrib') files = ftp.list('n*') ftp.getbinaryfile('nif.rb-0.91.gz', 'nif.gz', 1024) ftp.close
Net::FTP.open('ftp.netlab.co.jp') do |ftp| ftp.login files = ftp.chdir('pub/lang/ruby/contrib') files = ftp.list('n*') ftp.getbinaryfile('nif.rb-0.91.gz', 'nif.gz', 1024) end
The following are the methods most likely to be useful to users:
When true
, all traffic to and from the server is written to
+$stdout+. Default: false
.
Creates and returns a new FTP
object. If a host
is given, a connection is made. Additionally, if the user
is
given, the given user name, password, and (optionally) account are used to
log in. See login.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 129 def initialize(host = nil, user = nil, passwd = nil, acct = nil) super() @binary = true @passive = false @debug_mode = false @resume = false if host connect(host) if user login(user, passwd, acct) end end end
A synonym for FTP.new
, but with a mandatory host parameter.
If a block is given, it is passed the FTP
object, which will
be closed when the block finishes, or when an exception is raised.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 111 def FTP.open(host, user = nil, passwd = nil, acct = nil) if block_given? ftp = new(host, user, passwd, acct) begin yield ftp ensure ftp.close end else new(host, user, passwd, acct) end end
Aborts the previous command (ABOR command).
# File net/ftp.rb, line 741 def abort line = "ABOR" + CRLF print "put: ABOR\n" if @debug_mode @sock.send(line, Socket::MSG_OOB) resp = getmultiline unless ["426", "226", "225"].include?(resp[0, 3]) raise FTPProtoError, resp end return resp end
Sends the ACCT command. TODO: more info.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 594 def acct(account) cmd = "ACCT " + account voidcmd(cmd) end
Changes the (remote) directory.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 664 def chdir(dirname) if dirname == ".." begin voidcmd("CDUP") return rescue FTPPermError => e if e.message[0, 3] != "500" raise e end end end cmd = "CWD " + dirname voidcmd(cmd) end
Closes the connection. Further operations are impossible until you open a new connection with connect.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 809 def close @sock.close if @sock and not @sock.closed? end
Returns true
iff the connection is closed.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 816 def closed? @sock == nil or @sock.closed? end
Establishes an FTP connection to host, optionally
overriding the default port. If the environment variable
SOCKS_SERVER
is set, sets up the connection through a SOCKS
proxy. Raises an exception (typically Errno::ECONNREFUSED
) if
the connection cannot be established.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 170 def connect(host, port = FTP_PORT) if @debug_mode print "connect: ", host, ", ", port, "\n" end synchronize do @sock = open_socket(host, port) voidresp end end
Deletes a file on the server.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 650 def delete(filename) resp = sendcmd("DELE " + filename) if resp[0, 3] == "250" return elsif resp[0] == ?5 raise FTPPermError, resp else raise FTPReplyError, resp end end
Retrieves remotefile
in whatever mode the session is set (text
or binary). See gettextfile
and getbinaryfile.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 530 def get(remotefile, localfile = File.basename(remotefile), blocksize = DEFAULT_BLOCKSIZE, &block) # :yield: data unless @binary gettextfile(remotefile, localfile, &block) else getbinaryfile(remotefile, localfile, blocksize, &block) end end
Retrieves remotefile
in binary mode, storing the result in
localfile
. If a block is supplied, it is passed the retrieved
data in blocksize
chunks.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 489 def getbinaryfile(remotefile, localfile = File.basename(remotefile), blocksize = DEFAULT_BLOCKSIZE, &block) # :yield: data if @resume rest_offset = File.size?(localfile) f = open(localfile, "a") else rest_offset = nil f = open(localfile, "w") end begin f.binmode retrbinary("RETR " + remotefile, blocksize, rest_offset) do |data| f.write(data) yield(data) if block end ensure f.close end end
Retrieves remotefile
in ASCII (text) mode, storing the result
in localfile
. If a block is supplied, it is passed the
retrieved data one line at a time.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 514 def gettextfile(remotefile, localfile = File.basename(remotefile), &block) # :yield: line f = open(localfile, "w") begin retrlines("RETR " + remotefile) do |line| f.puts(line) yield(line) if block end ensure f.close end end
Issues the HELP command.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 775 def help(arg = nil) cmd = "HELP" if arg cmd = cmd + " " + arg end sendcmd(cmd) end
Returns an array of file information in the directory (the output is like `ls -l`). If a block is given, it iterates through the listing.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 618 def list(*args, &block) # :yield: line cmd = "LIST" args.each do |arg| cmd = cmd + " " + arg end if block retrlines(cmd, &block) else lines = [] retrlines(cmd) do |line| lines << line end return lines end end
Logs in to the remote host. The session must have been previously
connected. If user
is the string “anonymous” and the
password
is nil
, a password of
user@host
is synthesized. If the acct
parameter
is not nil
, an FTP ACCT command is sent
following the successful login. Raises an exception on error (typically
Net::FTPPermError
).
# File net/ftp.rb, line 368 def login(user = "anonymous", passwd = nil, acct = nil) if user == "anonymous" and passwd == nil passwd = getaddress end resp = "" synchronize do resp = sendcmd('USER ' + user) if resp[0] == ?3 raise FTPReplyError, resp if passwd.nil? resp = sendcmd('PASS ' + passwd) end if resp[0] == ?3 raise FTPReplyError, resp if acct.nil? resp = sendcmd('ACCT ' + acct) end end if resp[0] != ?2 raise FTPReplyError, resp end @welcome = resp end
Issues the MDTM command. TODO: more info.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 765 def mdtm(filename) resp = sendcmd("MDTM " + filename) if resp[0, 3] == "213" return resp[3 .. -1].strip end end
Creates a remote directory.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 706 def mkdir(dirname) resp = sendcmd("MKD " + dirname) return parse257(resp) end
Returns the last modification time of the (remote) file. If
local
is true
, it is returned as a local time,
otherwise it's a UTC time.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 697 def mtime(filename, local = false) str = mdtm(filename) ary = str.scan(MDTM_REGEXP)[0].collect {|i| i.to_i} return local ? Time.local(*ary) : Time.gm(*ary) end
Returns an array of filenames in the remote directory.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 602 def nlst(dir = nil) cmd = "NLST" if dir cmd = cmd + " " + dir end files = [] retrlines(cmd) do |line| files.push(line) end return files end
Issues a NOOP command.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 793 def noop voidcmd("NOOP") end
Transfers localfile
to the server in whatever mode the session
is set (text or binary). See puttextfile and putbinaryfile.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 582 def put(localfile, remotefile = File.basename(localfile), blocksize = DEFAULT_BLOCKSIZE, &block) unless @binary puttextfile(localfile, remotefile, &block) else putbinaryfile(localfile, remotefile, blocksize, &block) end end
Transfers localfile
to the server in binary mode, storing the
result in remotefile
. If a block is supplied, calls it,
passing in the transmitted data in blocksize
chunks.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 544 def putbinaryfile(localfile, remotefile = File.basename(localfile), blocksize = DEFAULT_BLOCKSIZE, &block) # :yield: data if @resume begin rest_offset = size(remotefile) rescue Net::FTPPermError rest_offset = nil end else rest_offset = nil end f = open(localfile) begin f.binmode storbinary("STOR " + remotefile, f, blocksize, rest_offset, &block) ensure f.close end end
Transfers localfile
to the server in ASCII (text) mode,
storing the result in remotefile
. If callback or an associated
block is supplied, calls it, passing in the transmitted data one line at a
time.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 569 def puttextfile(localfile, remotefile = File.basename(localfile), &block) # :yield: line f = open(localfile) begin storlines("STOR " + remotefile, f, &block) ensure f.close end end
Returns the current remote directory.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 721 def pwd resp = sendcmd("PWD") return parse257(resp) end
Exits the FTP session.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 786 def quit voidcmd("QUIT") end
Renames a file on the server.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 639 def rename(fromname, toname) resp = sendcmd("RNFR " + fromname) if resp[0] != ?3 raise FTPReplyError, resp end voidcmd("RNTO " + toname) end
Puts the connection into binary (image) mode, issues the given command, and
fetches the data returned, passing it to the associated block in chunks of
blocksize
characters. Note that cmd
is a server
command (such as “RETR myfile”).
# File net/ftp.rb, line 397 def retrbinary(cmd, blocksize, rest_offset = nil) # :yield: data synchronize do voidcmd("TYPE I") conn = transfercmd(cmd, rest_offset) loop do data = conn.read(blocksize) break if data == nil yield(data) end conn.close voidresp end end
Puts the connection into ASCII (text) mode, issues the given command, and
passes the resulting data, one line at a time, to the associated block. If
no block is given, prints the lines. Note that cmd
is a server
command (such as “RETR myfile”).
# File net/ftp.rb, line 417 def retrlines(cmd) # :yield: line synchronize do voidcmd("TYPE A") conn = transfercmd(cmd) loop do line = conn.gets break if line == nil if line[-2, 2] == CRLF line = line[0 .. -3] elsif line[-1] == ?\n line = line[0 .. -2] end yield(line) end conn.close voidresp end end
Obsolete
# File net/ftp.rb, line 144 def return_code $stderr.puts("warning: Net::FTP#return_code is obsolete and do nothing") return "\n" end
Obsolete
# File net/ftp.rb, line 150 def return_code=(s) $stderr.puts("warning: Net::FTP#return_code= is obsolete and do nothing") end
Removes a remote directory.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 714 def rmdir(dirname) voidcmd("RMD " + dirname) end
Sends a command and returns the response.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 261 def sendcmd(cmd) synchronize do putline(cmd) return getresp end end
WRITEME or make private
# File net/ftp.rb, line 183 def set_socket(sock, get_greeting = true) synchronize do @sock = sock if get_greeting voidresp end end end
Issues a SITE command.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 800 def site(arg) cmd = "SITE " + arg voidcmd(cmd) end
Returns the size of the given (remote) filename.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 682 def size(filename) voidcmd("TYPE I") resp = sendcmd("SIZE " + filename) if resp[0, 3] != "213" raise FTPReplyError, resp end return resp[3..-1].strip.to_i end
Returns the status (STAT command).
# File net/ftp.rb, line 755 def status line = "STAT" + CRLF print "put: STAT\n" if @debug_mode @sock.send(line, Socket::MSG_OOB) return getresp end
Puts the connection into binary (image) mode, issues the given server-side
command (such as “STOR myfile”), and sends the contents of the file named
file
to the server. If the optional block is given, it also
passes it the data, in chunks of blocksize
characters.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 442 def storbinary(cmd, file, blocksize, rest_offset = nil, &block) # :yield: data if rest_offset file.seek(rest_offset, IO::SEEK_SET) end synchronize do voidcmd("TYPE I") conn = transfercmd(cmd, rest_offset) loop do buf = file.read(blocksize) break if buf == nil conn.write(buf) yield(buf) if block end conn.close voidresp end end
Puts the connection into ASCII (text) mode, issues the given server-side
command (such as “STOR myfile”), and sends the contents of the file named
file
to the server, one line at a time. If the optional block
is given, it also passes it the lines.
# File net/ftp.rb, line 466 def storlines(cmd, file, &block) # :yield: line synchronize do voidcmd("TYPE A") conn = transfercmd(cmd) loop do buf = file.gets break if buf == nil if buf[-2, 2] != CRLF buf = buf.chomp + CRLF end conn.write(buf) yield(buf) if block end conn.close voidresp end end
