SkonsoftLftpDeployementBundle

The skonsoft:deploy command helps you to deploy your sources in your web server using LFTP. By default, this command executes LFTP with your config information set under app/config/config.yml

#problem:

I had a subscription to a web host that does not allow SSH access or access git. Only FTP is allowed. The work was hard to update the site with my modifications lovales. That's why I tried something similar to rsync, but that is based on FTP. The solution was LFTP.

#LFTP:

[Lftp] (http://lftp.yar.ru/) is a FTP client to easily command line to transfer files (eg to update your website or locally modified to make a backup on your computer).
