## Installation



FTPS support is achieved through [rust-native-tls](https://github.com/sfackler/rust-native-tls) and is disabled by default. To enable it `secure` should be activated in `Cargo.toml`.



```toml

[dependencies]

ftp = { version = "", features = ["secure"] }

```



## Usage



```rust

extern crate ftp;



use std::str;

use std::io::Cursor;

use ftp::FtpStream;



fn main() {

    // Create a connection to an FTP server and authenticate to it.

    let mut ftp_stream = FtpStream::connect("127.0.0.1:21").unwrap();

    let _ = ftp_stream.login("username", "password").unwrap();



    // Get the current directory that the client will be reading from and writing to.

    println!("Current directory: {}", ftp_stream.pwd().unwrap());



    // Change into a new directory, relative to the one we are currently in.

    let _ = ftp_stream.cwd("test_data").unwrap();



    // Retrieve (GET) a file from the FTP server in the current working directory.

    let remote_file = ftp_stream.simple_retr("ftpext-charter.txt").unwrap();

    println!("Read file with contents\n{}\n", str::from_utf8(&remote_file.into_inner()).unwrap());



    // Store (PUT) a file from the client to the current working directory of the server.

    let mut reader = Cursor::new("Hello from the Rust \"ftp\" crate!".as_bytes());

    let _ = ftp_stream.put("greeting.txt", &mut reader);

    println!("Successfully wrote greeting.txt");



    // Terminate the connection to the server.

    let _ = ftp_stream.quit();

}



```

## Development environment



All you need to develop rust-ftp and run the tests is Rust and Docker.

The `tests` folder contains a `Dockerfile` that installs and configures

the vsftpd server.



To create the Docker image:



```bash

docker build -t ftp-server tests

```



To start the FTP server that is tested against:



```bash

tests/ftp-server.sh

```



This script runs the `ftp-server` image in detached mode and starts the `vsftpd` daemon. It binds ports 21 (FTP) as well as the range 65000-65010 for passive connections.



Once you have an instance running, to run tests type:



```bash

cargo test --features secure

```



The following commands can be useful:



```bash

# List running containers of ftp-server image

# (to include stopped containers use -a option)

docker ps --filter ancestor=ftp-server



# To stop and remove a container

docker stop container_name

docker rm container_name



# To remove the image

docker rmi ftp-server

```
