go-ftp

This repository contains a simple implementation of an FTP server and client in Go. The server allows clients to connect, request files, and retrieve a list of files from the server's directory. The client can connect to the server, download files, and retrieve a list of files from the server.

Features

• Server:

  • Listens for incoming connections from clients.
  • Supports file download requests.
  • Provides a list of files in the server's directory.

• Client:

  • Connects to the server using TCP.
  • Requests file downloads from the server.
  • Retrieves a list of files from the server's directory.

Usage

To install the package, run the following command

go get github.com/jrjaro18/go-ftp

Demo

Import the following package

import "github.com/jrjaro18/go-ftp"

Sample Input

const (
	addr = "path to your folder"
        //NOTE: without / in the end
	networkAddr = "localhost"
	port = "20"
)

SERVER GUIDE

To start the FTP server, use the following code snippet:

err := server.Start(addr, networkAddr, port)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}

CLIENT GUIDE

To start the FTP client and receive the file, use the following code snippet:

err := client.ReceiveFile(addr, fileName, networkAddr, port)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}

To start the FTP client and receive the list of files available in server, use the following code snippet:

arr, err := client.ReceiveList(networkAddr, port)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
