ftputil—a high-level FTP client library for Python

The ftputil  Python library is a high-level interface to the  ftplib module. The FTPHost objects generated with ftputil allow many operations similar to those of  os and  os.path. Here are two examples:

# Download some files from the login directory.
host = ftputil.FTPHost('ftp.domain.com', 'user', 'secret')
names = host.listdir(host.curdir)
for name in names:
    if host.path.isfile(name):
        host.download(name, name, 'b')   # remote, local, binary mode

# Check if a remote text file contains "ftputil".
# Stop reading as soon as the string is found.
with host.file("some_file") as remote_fobj:
    for line in remote_fobj:
        if "ftputil" in line:
            found = True
            break
    else:
        found = False
