Functions

cd(Connection, Dir)

This function is deprecated. ct_ftp:cd/2 is deprecated; Legacy protocol support will be dropped in OTP-30.
-spec cd(Connection, Dir) -> ok | {error, Reason}
            when Connection :: connection(), Dir :: file:filename(), Reason :: term().

Changes directory on remote host.

close(Connection)

This function is deprecated. ct_ftp:close/1 is deprecated; Legacy protocol support will be dropped in OTP-30.
-spec close(Connection) -> ok | {error, Reason} when Connection :: connection(), Reason :: term().

Closes the FTP connection.

delete(Connection, File)

This function is deprecated. ct_ftp:delete/2 is deprecated; Legacy protocol support will be dropped in OTP-30.
-spec delete(Connection, File) -> ok | {error, Reason}
                when Connection :: connection(), File :: file:filename(), Reason :: term().

Deletes a file on remote host.

get(KeyOrName, RemoteFile, LocalFile)

This function is deprecated. ct_ftp:get/3 is deprecated; Legacy protocol support will be dropped in OTP-30.
-spec get(KeyOrName, RemoteFile, LocalFile) -> ok | {error, Reason}
             when
                 KeyOrName :: ct:key_or_name(),
                 RemoteFile :: file:filename(),
                 LocalFile :: file:filename(),
                 Reason :: term().

Opens an FTP connection and fetches a file from the remote host.

RemoteFile and LocalFile must be absolute paths.

The configuration file must be as for ct_ftp:put/3.

See also ct:require/2.

ls(Connection, Dir)

This function is deprecated. ct_ftp:ls/2 is deprecated; Legacy protocol support will be dropped in OTP-30.
-spec ls(Connection, Dir) -> {ok, Listing} | {error, Reason}
            when
                Connection :: connection(),
                Dir :: file:filename(),
                Listing :: string(),
                Reason :: term().

Lists directory Dir.

open(KeyOrName)

This function is deprecated. ct_ftp:open/1 is deprecated; Legacy protocol support will be dropped in OTP-30.
-spec open(KeyOrName) -> {ok, Handle} | {error, Reason}
              when KeyOrName :: ct:key_or_name(), Handle :: handle(), Reason :: term().

Opens an FTP connection to the specified node.

You can open a connection for a particular Name and use the same name as reference for all following subsequent operations. If you want the connection to be associated with Handle instead (if you, for example, need to open multiple connections to a host), use Key, the configuration variable name, to specify the target. A connection without an associated target name can only be closed with the handle value.

For information on how to create a new Name, see ct:require/2.

put(KeyOrName, LocalFile, RemoteFile)

This function is deprecated. ct_ftp:put/3 is deprecated; Legacy protocol support will be dropped in OTP-30.
-spec put(KeyOrName, LocalFile, RemoteFile) -> ok | {error, Reason}
             when
                 KeyOrName :: ct:key_or_name(),
                 LocalFile :: file:filename(),
                 RemoteFile :: file:filename(),
                 Reason :: term().

Opens an FTP connection and sends a file to the remote host.

LocalFile and RemoteFile must be absolute paths.

If the target host is a "special" node, the FTP address must be specified in the configuration file as follows:

{node,[{ftp,IpAddr}]}.

If the target host is something else, for example, a UNIX host, the configuration file must also include the username and password (both strings):

{unix,[{ftp,IpAddr},
       {username,Username},
       {password,Password}]}.
