FTPit_QuickUpload

NameFTPit_QuickUpload
Description

This function allows you to quickly upload a single file using an FTP URL format. You just give this function the file or container you want to upload and the full URL to the location you want to upload to, and it connects, uploads, and disconnects for you. The format of the URL is as follows:

ftp://user:pass@domain.com:port/some/dir/

There are several things that can be defined here, a few of which are optional:

  • Instead of "ftp", you can specify "ftps" to have the plug-in connect with SSL to the FTP server. It will use the equivalent of the "After Connect" setting. If your FTP server requires the "Before Connect" SSL setting to connect on port 990, then specify ":990" after the domain name.
  • The "user" is optional. If it's not there, the plug-in will attempt to connect anonymously to the FTP server.
  • The "pass" is optional if your FTP server does not require a password. If you do need a password, but would rather be prompted for it instead of hard coding it, specify "__ASK__" as the password.
  • The "domain.com" is the domain name or IP address of the FTP server you are trying to connect to. Instead of specifying a domain name, though, you can specify an existing Account name here (defined using the AddAccount or ConfigureAccount functions). If you specify an Account Name, the plug-in will pull all needed username, password, domain name, etc values from that Account.
  • The "port" is optional and defaults to port 21. If you need to use the "Before Connect" SSL setting, specify 990 here.

Here are some example URLs:

ftp://some.domain.com/some/dir/
ftp://bob:secret@some.domain.com/some/dir/
ftps://bob:secret@some.domain.com/some/dir/
ftps://bob:\_\_ASK\_\_@some.domain.com:990/some/dir/
ftp://MyFTPAccount/some/dir/
