|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
FTP is the File Transfer Protocol. FTP support is provided using the
|
|
[github.com/jlaffaye/ftp](https://godoc.org/github.com/jlaffaye/ftp)
|
|
package.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of making an FTP configuration. First run
|
|
|
|
rclone config
|
|
|
|
This will guide you through an interactive setup process. An FTP remote only
|
|
needs a host together with and a username and a password. With anonymous FTP
|
|
server, you will need to use `anonymous` as username and your email address as
|
|
the password.
|
|
|
|
```
|

r) Rename remote
|
|
c) Copy remote
|

|
[remote]
|
|

This remote is called `remote` and can now be used like this

|
|
See all directories in the home directory
|
|
|
|
rclone lsd remote:
|
|
|
|
Make a new directory
|
|
|
|
rclone mkdir remote:path/to/directory
|
|
|
|
List the contents of a directory
|
|
|
|
rclone ls remote:path/to/directory
|
|
|
|
Sync `/home/local/directory` to the remote directory, deleting any
|
|
excess files in the directory.
|
|
|
|
rclone sync /home/local/directory remote:directory
|

|
### Modified time ###
|
|
|
|
FTP does not support modified times. Any times you see on the server
|
|
will be time of upload.
|
|
|
|
### Checksums ###
|
|
|
|
FTP does not support any checksums.
|
|
|
|
### Limitations ###
|
|
|
|
Note that since FTP isn't HTTP based the following flags don't work
|
|
with it: `--dump-headers`, `--dump-bodies`, `--dump-auth`
|
|
|
|
Note that `--timeout` isn't supported (but `--contimeout` is).
|
|
|
|
Note that `--bind` isn't supported.
|
|
|
|
FTP could support server side move but doesn't yet.
