lets-ftp

Lets-ftp manages FTP connections and commands in Lets. If you want to deploy over FTP, check out lets-copy.

Installation

npm install lets-ftp

Getting started

Letsfile.js

var ftp = require('lets-ftp');

module.exports = function(lets) {
  var stage = new lets.Stage({
    host: '1.2.3.4',
    username: 'me'
  });

  // Best practice is to load passwords from a file that isn't checked in
  stage.config(require('./config/stage1'));

  // Use lets-ftp
  stage.plugin(ftp());

  // Do something after connection, maybe upload a file
  stage.after('connect', function (options, done) {
    this.getConnection(function (c) {
      c.put('local-filename', 'remote-filename', done);
    });
  });

  // Add stage to lets and name it
  lets.addStage('stage1', stage);
};

Run it using e.g. $ lets deploy stage1 (a way to add custom "flows" will be available soon).

Options

Required:

• options.host – Address to server
• options.username – User to log in with
• options.password – The user's password

See node-ftp for the following options mainly used by that module:

• options.port
• options.secure
• options.secureOptions
• options.connTimeout
• options.pasvTimeout
• options.keepalive

That's also where you can find docs on which methods are available on the connection object.
