AnyEvent::FTP

Simple asynchronous FTP client and server

SYNOPSIS

# For the client
use AnyEvent::FTP::Client;

# For the server
use AnyEvent::FTP::Server;

DESCRIPTION

This distribution provides client and server implementations for File Transfer Protocol (FTP) in an AnyEvent environment. For the specific interfaces, see AnyEvent::FTP::Client and AnyEvent::FTP::Server for details.

Before each release, AnyEvent::FTP::Client is tested against these FTP servers using the t/client_*.t tests that come with this distribution:

• Proftpd
• wu-ftpd
• Net::FTPServer
• vsftpd
• Pure-FTPd
• bftpd
• AnyEvent::FTP::Server

The client code is also tested less frequently against these FTP servers:

• NcFTPd
• Microsoft IIS

It used to also be tested against the VMS ftp server, so it was verified to work with it, at least at one point. However, I no longer have access to that server.

BUNDLED FILES

This distribution comes bundled with ls from the old Perl Power Tools project. This is only used on MSWin32 if this command is not found in the path, as it is frequently not available on that platform

The Perl implementation of ls was written by Mark Leighton Fisher of Thomson Consumer Electronics, fisherm@tce.com.

That program is free and open software. You may use, modify, distribute, and sell it program (and any modified variants) in any way you wish, provided you do not restrict others from doing the same.
