This is an FTP client started as a port of the standard Python FTP client library

Installation

go get code.google.com/p/ftp4go

How to use it

Import the library in your code and call the methods exposed by the FTP structure, for instance:

```go

```

package main

import ( "fmt" "os" ftp4go "ftp4go.googlecode.com/hg/ftp4go" )

func main() {

    ftpClient := ftp4go.NewFTP(0) // 1 for debugging

    //connect
    _, err := ftpClient.Connect("myFtpAddress", ftp4go.DefaultFtpPort)
    if err != nil {
            fmt.Println("The connection failed")
            os.Exit(1)
    }

    defer ftpClient.Quit()

    _, err = ftpClient.Login("myUsername", "myPassword", "")
    if err != nil {
            fmt.Println("The login failed")
            os.Exit(1)
    }


    //Print the current working directory
    var cwd string
    cwd, err = ftpClient.Pwd()
    if err != nil {
            fmt.Println("The Pwd command failed")
            os.Exit(1)
    }

    fmt.Println("The current folder is", cwd)

}

More on the code

Being a port of a Python library, the original Python version is probably the best reference.

Python ftplib

Differences to the original version

Some new methods have been implemented to upload and download files, recursively in a folder as well.
