# DesktopLftp

**Important:** This is not functioning. It will run, but it doesn't actually connect to anything yet.

Based on [electron-react-boilerplate](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate), thanks!

## Motivation

Sometimes it seems like my ISP will throttle transfer speeds even over SFTP. Luckily, [LFTP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lftp) offters multi-threaded connections, which almost always maxes out my connection, or pretty close to it depending on the source server. I also wanted to fiddle with react/redux/electron/etc.

As suggested below, I'm using [react-desktop](https://github.com/gabrielbull/react-desktop) for the UI components.

The plan is to model it after [FileZilla](https://filezilla-project.org/). I would like to encrypt the saved sites though.

# From electron-react-boilerplate

_Everything below is from [electron-react-boilerplate](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate)_

> Live editing development on desktop app

[Electron](http://electron.atom.io/) application boilerplate based on [React](https://facebook.github.io/react/), [Redux](https://github.com/reactjs/redux), [React Router](https://github.com/reactjs/react-router), [Webpack](http://webpack.github.io/docs/), [React Transform HMR](https://github.com/gaearon/react-transform-hmr) for rapid application development

## Install

* **Note: requires a node version >= 6 and an npm version >= 3.**
* **If you have installation or compilation issues with this project, please see the [electron-react-boilerplate debugging guide](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/issues/400)**

First, clone the repo via git:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/geoffdutton/desktop-lftp.git your-project-name
```

And then install dependencies.
**ProTip**: Install with [yarn](https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn) for faster and safer installation

```bash
$ cd your-project-name && npm install
```

:bulb: *In order to remove boilerplate sample code, simply run `npm run cleanup`. After this is run, the initial sample boilerplate code will be removed in order for a clean project for starting custom dev*

## Run

Run these two commands __simultaneously__ in different console tabs.

```bash
$ npm run hot-server
$ npm run start-hot
```

or run two servers with one command

```bash
$ npm run dev
```

## Editor Configuration
**Atom**
```bash
apm install editorconfig es6-javascript autocomplete-flow javascript-snippets linter linter-eslint language-babel
```

**Sublime**
* https://github.com/sindresorhus/editorconfig-sublime#readme
* https://github.com/SublimeLinter/SublimeLinter3
* https://github.com/roadhump/SublimeLinter-eslint
* https://github.com/babel/babel-sublime

**Others**
* [Editorconfig](http://editorconfig.org/#download)
* [ESLint](http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/integrations#editors)
* Babel Syntax Plugin

## DevTools

#### Toggle Chrome DevTools

- OS X: Cmd Alt I or F12
- Linux: Ctrl Shift I or F12
- Windows: Ctrl Shift I or F12

*See [electron-debug](https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-debug) for more information.*

#### DevTools extension

This boilerplate is included following DevTools extensions:

* [Devtron](https://github.com/electron/devtron) - Install via [electron-debug](https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-debug).
* [React Developer Tools](https://github.com/facebook/react-devtools) - Install via [electron-devtools-installer](https://github.com/GPMDP/electron-devtools-installer).
* [Redux DevTools](https://github.com/zalmoxisus/redux-devtools-extension) - Install via [electron-devtools-installer](https://github.com/GPMDP/electron-devtools-installer).

You can find the tabs on Chrome DevTools.

If you want to update extensions version, please set `UPGRADE_EXTENSIONS` env, just run:

```bash
$ UPGRADE_EXTENSIONS=1 npm run dev

# For Windows
$ set UPGRADE_EXTENSIONS=1 && npm run dev
```

## CSS Modules

This boilerplate out of the box is configured to use [css-modules](https://github.com/css-modules/css-modules).

All `.css` file extensions will use css-modules unless it has `.global.css`.

If you need global styles, stylesheets with `.global.css` will not go through the
css-modules loader. e.g. `app.global.css`

If you want to import global css libraries (like `bootstrap`), you can just write the following code in `.global.css`:

```css
@import "~bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css";
```

## Packaging

To package apps for the local platform:

```bash
$ npm run package
```

To package apps for all platforms:

First, refer to [Multi Platform Build](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Multi-Platform-Build) for dependencies.

Then,
```bash
$ npm run package-all
```

To package apps with options:

```bash
$ npm run package -- --[option]
```

## Further commands

To run the application without packaging run

```bash
$ npm run build
$ npm start
```

To run End-to-End Test

```bash
$ npm run build
$ npm run test-e2e
```

#### Options

See [electron-builder CLI Usage](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder#cli-usage)

#### Module Structure

This boilerplate uses a [two package.json structure](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder#two-packagejson-structure).

1. If the module is native to a platform or otherwise should be included with the published package (i.e. bcrypt, openbci), it should be listed under `dependencies` in `./app/package.json`.
2. If a module is `import`ed by another module, include it in `dependencies` in `./package.json`. See [this ESLint rule](https://github.com/benmosher/eslint-plugin-import/blob/master/docs/rules/no-extraneous-dependencies.md).
3. Otherwise, modules used for building, testing and debugging should be included in `devDependencies` in `./package.json`.

## Static Type Checking
This project comes with Flow support out of the box! You can annotate your code with types, [get Flow errors as ESLint errors](https://github.com/amilajack/eslint-plugin-flowtype-errors), and get [type errors during runtime](https://github.com/gcanti/babel-plugin-tcomb-boilerplate) during development. Types are completely optional.

## Native-like UI

If you want to have native-like User Interface (OS X El Capitan and Windows 10), [react-desktop](https://github.com/gabrielbull/react-desktop) may perfect suit for you.

## Dispatching redux actions from main process

see discusses in [electron-react-boilerplate #118](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/issues/118) and [electron-react-boilerplate #108](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/issues/108)

## How to keep the boilerplate updated

If your application is a fork from this repo, you can add this repo to another git remote:

```sh
git remote add upstream https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate.git
```

Then, use git to merge some latest commits:

```sh
git pull upstream master
```
