Test::Smoke::FTPClientUser Contributed Perl DocumentaTest::Smoke::FTPClient(3)NAMETest::Smoke::FTPClient - Implement a mirror like object
SYNOPSIS
use Test::Smoke::FTPClient;
my $server = 'ftp.linux.activestate.com';
my $fc = Test::Smoke::FTPClient->new( $server );
my $sdir = '/pub/staff/gsar/APC/perl-current';
my $ddir = '~/perlsmoke/perl-current';
my $cleanup = 1; # like --delete for rsync
$fc->connect;
$fc->mirror( $sdir, $ddir, $cleanup );
$fc->bye;
DESCRIPTION
This module was written specifically to fetch a perl source-tree from
the APC. It will not suffice as a general purpose mirror module! It
only distinguishes between files and directories and relies on the
output of the "Net::FTP->dir" method.
This solution is slow, you'd better use rsync!
METHODS
Test::Smoke::FTPClient->new( $server[, %options] )
Create a new object with option checking:
* fuser
* fpasswd
* v
* fpassive
* ftype
$ftpclient->connect( )
Returns true for success after connecting and login.
$client->mirror( $sdir, $ddir )
Set-up the environment and call "__do_mirror()"
$client->bye
Disconnect from the FTP-server and cleanup the Net::FTP client;
Test::Smoke::FTPClient->config( $key[, $value] )
"config()" is an interface to the package lexical %CONFIG, which holds
all the default values for the "new()" arguments.
With the special key all_defaults this returns a reference to a hash
holding all the default values.
__do_mirror( $ftp, $ftpdir, $localdir, $lroot, $verbose, $cleanup )
Recursive sub to mirror a tree from an FTP server.
dirlist( $ftp, $verbose )
Return a list of entries (hashrefs) with these properties:
* name: Filename
* type f/d/l
* mode unix file mode
* size filessize in bytes
* date file date
__parse_line_from_dir( $line, $verbose )
The "dir" command in FTP gives a sort of "ls -la" output, parts of this
output are used as remote file-info.
__get_mode_from_text( $tmode )
This takes the text representation of a file-mode (like 'rwxr--r--')
and return the numeric value.
__time_from_ls( $mname, $day, $time_or_year )
This takes the three date/time related columns from the "ls -la" output
and returns a localtime-stamp.
__time_from_windows( $date, $time )
This takes the two date/time related columns from the "dir" output and
returns a localtime-stamp
