The simplest example (connect, change working dir, print working dir, close):
| ftp connect | 192.168.1.10 | mylogin | mypassword |
| cwd | /home/myname/tmp/testdir | | |
| pwd | | | |
| ftp close | | | |
It is possible to use multiple ftp connections in parallel. Connections are identified by string identifiers:
| ftp connect | 192.168.1.10 | mylogin | mypassword | connId=ftp1 |
| ftp connect | 192.168.1.20 | mylogin2 | mypassword2 | connId=ftp2 |
| cwd | /home/myname/tmp/testdir | ftp1 | | |
| cwd | /home/myname/tmp/testdir | ftp2 | | |
| pwd | ftp2 | | | |
| pwd | ftp1 | | | |
| ftp close | ftp2 | | | |
| ftp close | ftp1 | | | |
During library import it is possible to disable logging of server messages. By default logging is enabled:
| Library | FtpLibrary.py |
To disable logging of server messages, additional parameter must be added to import:
| Library | FtpLibrary.py | False |
To run library remotely execute: python FtpLibrary.py ipaddress portnumber (for example: python FtpLibrary.py 192.168.0.101 8222)
