ftputil — high-level FTP client library for Python
The ftputil Python library is a high-level interface on top of the ftplib module. The FTPHost objects generated with ftputil allow many operations similar to those of os, os.path and shutil.
Here are two examples:
#!python
# Download some files from the login directory.
with ftputil.FTPHost('ftp.domain.com', 'user', 'secret') as host:
names = host.listdir(host.curdir)
for name in names:
if host.path.isfile(name):
# Remote name, local name
host.download(name, name)
# 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
