jdtoronto has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Esteemed Monks,

Some time back in FTP with progress bar in Tk? - yes, nearly a year ago. I asked about how I could get and FTP client running in Tk with a progress bar. At the time Tachyon and Zentara among others responded with some suggestions. Well, I eventually decided the noly way to get what I needed was to hack Net::FTP for myself and add some simple additional functionality. In my hacking I added to the hash method of Net::FTP, now I can pass a coderef into the hash mothod and have it let me know when a chunk has been processed. Here is the code that drives the modified version:

my $progress = $mw->Toplevel(); $progress->title("Download progress"); $progress->ProgressBar( -width => 20, -from => 0, -to => 100, -blocks => 100, -colors => [ 0, 'lightgreen' ], -variable => \$percent_done, -length => '300', )->pack( -side => 'bottom', -padx => '10', -pady => '10', ); use InContact::FTP; my $ftp = InContact::FTP->new( "froghollow.net", Timeout => 30, Debug => 0 ) or warn "Can't connect: $@\n"; $ftp->login( 'anonymous', 'guest' ) or die "Couldn't authenticate"; $ftp->cwd("/pub"); $ftp->type("I"); $ftp->hash( \&__callback, 1024, $progress ); $file_size = $ftp->size( 'whatever.exe' ) / 1024; $ftp->get('whatever.exe'); $ftp->quit; $mw->configure( -cursor => 'arrow' ); $mw->update; sub __callback { my ($count, $progress) = @_; $block_count += $count; $percent_done = ( $block_count / $file_size ) * 100; $mw->update(); }

Whilst I will include the complete modified module code, I will for the sake of the record illustrate what I did. I claim no great brilliance for anything here! I am an engineer/mathematician, not aprogrammer!

I made a simple mod to the hash method to store another element - $p in this code, which is the parameter (in my example $progress) that I want to pass to the callback.

sub hash { my $ftp = shift; # self my($h,$b, $p) = @_; unless($h) { delete ${*$ftp}{'net_ftp_hash'}; return [\*STDERR,0]; } #($h,$b) = (ref($h)? $h : \*STDERR, $b || 1024); ($h, $b, $p) = ( $h, $b || 1024, $p); #select((select($h), $|=1)[0]); #Dont need to set flush on the filehandle when we use a coderef? $b = 512 if $b < 512; ${*$ftp}{'net_ftp_hash'} = [$h, $b, $p]; }

Now, in the code where the function passed in is called, originally with the number of #'s to be shown, I added the parameter like this:
# call the subroutine with the number of #'s notionally. &$hashh ( int($count / $hashb), $hashp);
and it all works.

It is messy, I have put a copy of FTP.pm in my own namespace. I have been far too busy to document any more than this. But the question is asked often enough that I figured others may get some value out of this.

It provides wrappers for a subset of the RFC959 commands. =head1 OVERVIEW FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. It is a way of transferring files between networked machines. The protocol defines a client (whose commands are provided by this module) and a server (not implemented in this module). Communication is always initiated by the client, and the server responds with a message and a status code (and sometimes with data). The FTP protocol allows files to be sent to or fetched from the server. Each transfer involves a B<local file> (on the client) and a B<remote file> (on the server). In this module, the same file name will be used for both local and remote if only one is specified. This means that transferring remote file C</path/to/file> will try to put that file in C</path/to/file> locally, unless you specify a local file name. The protocol also defines several standard B<translations> which the file can undergo during transfer. These are ASCII, EBCDIC, binary, and byte. ASCII is the default type, and indicates that the sender of files will translate the ends of lines to a standard representation which the receiver will then translate back into their local representation. EBCDIC indicates the file being transferred is in EBCDIC format. Binary (also known as image) format sends the data as a contiguous bit stream. Byte format transfers the data as bytes, the values of which remain the same regardless of differences in byte size between the two machines (in theory - in practice you should only use this if you really know what you're doing). =head1 CONSTRUCTOR =over 4 =item new ([ HOST ] [, OPTIONS ]) This is the constructor for a new Net::FTP object. C<HOST> is the name of the remote host to which an FTP connection is required. C<HOST> is optional. If C<HOST> is not given then it may instead be passed as the C<Host> option described below. C<OPTIONS> are passed in a hash like fashion, using key and value pair +s. Possible options are: B<Host> - FTP host to connect to. It may be a single scalar, as define +d for the C<PeerAddr> option in L<IO::Socket::INET>, or a reference to an array with hosts to try in turn. The L</host> method will return th +e value which was used to connect to the host. B<Firewall> - The name of a machine which acts as an FTP firewall. Thi +s can be overridden by an environment variable C<FTP_FIREWALL>. If specified, a +nd the given host cannot be directly connected to, then the connection is made to the firewall machine and the string C<@hostname> + is appended to the login identifier. This kind of setup is also refered t +o as an ftp proxy. B<FirewallType> - The type of firewall running on the machine indicate +d by B<Firewall>. This can be overridden by an environment variable C<FTP_FIREWALL_TYPE>. For a list of permissible types, see the descrip +tion of ftp_firewall_type in L<Net::Config>. B<BlockSize> - This is the block size that Net::FTP will use when doin +g transfers. (defaults to 10240) B<Port> - The port number to connect to on the remote machine for the FTP connection B<Timeout> - Set a timeout value (defaults to 120) B<Debug> - debug level (see the debug method in L<Net::Cmd>) B<Passive> - If set to a non-zero value then all data transfers will b +e done using passive mode. This is not usually required except for some I<dum +b> servers, and some firewall configurations. This can also be set by the environment variable C<FTP_PASSIVE>. B<Hash> - If given a reference to a file handle (e.g., C<\*STDERR>), print hash marks (#) on that filehandle every 1024 bytes. This simply invokes the C<hash()> method for you, so that hash marks are displayed for all transfers. You can, of course, call C<hash()> explicitly whenever you'd like. B<LocalAddr> - Local address to use for all socket connections, this argument will be passed to L<IO::Socket::INET> If the constructor fails undef will be returned and an error message w +ill be in $@ =back =head1 METHODS Unless otherwise stated all methods return either a I<true> or I<false +> value, with I<true> meaning that the operation was a success. When a m +ethod states that it returns a value, failure will be returned as I<undef> o +r an empty list. =over 4 =item login ([LOGIN [,PASSWORD [, ACCOUNT] ] ]) Log into the remote FTP server with the given login information. If no arguments are given then the C<Net::FTP> uses the C<Net::Netrc> package to lookup the login information for the connected host. If no information is found then a login of I<anonymous> is used. If no password is given and the login is I<anonymous> then I<anonymous +@> will be used for password. If the connection is via a firewall then the C<authorize> method will be called with no arguments. =item authorize ( [AUTH [, RESP]]) This is a protocol used by some firewall ftp proxies. It is used to authorise the user to send data out. If both arguments are not spe +cified then C<authorize> uses C<Net::Netrc> to do a lookup. =item site (ARGS) Send a SITE command to the remote server and wait for a response. Returns most significant digit of the response code. =item ascii Transfer file in ASCII. CRLF translation will be done if required =item binary Transfer file in binary mode. No transformation will be done. B<Hint>: If both server and client machines use the same line ending f +or text files, then it will be faster to transfer all files in binary mod +e. =item rename ( OLDNAME, NEWNAME ) Rename a file on the remote FTP server from C<OLDNAME> to C<NEWNAME>. +This is done by sending the RNFR and RNTO commands. =item delete ( FILENAME ) Send a request to the server to delete C<FILENAME>. =item cwd ( [ DIR ] ) Attempt to change directory to the directory given in C<$dir>. If C<$dir> is C<"..">, the FTP C<CDUP> command is used to attempt to move up one directory. If no directory is given then an attempt is mad +e to change the directory to the root directory. =item cdup () Change directory to the parent of the current directory. =item pwd () Returns the full pathname of the current directory. =item restart ( WHERE ) Set the byte offset at which to begin the next data transfer. Net::FTP + simply records this value and uses it when during the next data transfer. For + this reason this method will not return an error, but setting it may cause a subsequent data transfer to fail. =item rmdir ( DIR [, RECURSE ]) Remove the directory with the name C<DIR>. If C<RECURSE> is I<true> th +en C<rmdir> will attempt to delete everything inside the directory. =item mkdir ( DIR [, RECURSE ]) Create a new directory with the name C<DIR>. If C<RECURSE> is I<true> +then C<mkdir> will attempt to create all the directories in the given path. Returns the full pathname to the new directory. =item alloc ( SIZE [, RECORD_SIZE] ) The alloc command allows you to give the ftp server a hint about the s +ize of the file about to be transfered using the ALLO ftp command. Some st +orage systems use this to make intelligent decisions about how to store the +file. The C<SIZE> argument represents the size of the file in bytes. The C<RECORD_SIZE> argument indicates a mazimum record or page size for fi +les sent with a record or page structure. The size of the file will be determined, and sent to the server automatically for normal files so that this method need only be called + if you are transfering data from a socket, named pipe, or other stream no +t associated with a normal file. =item ls ( [ DIR ] ) Get a directory listing of C<DIR>, or the current directory. In an array context, returns a list of lines returned from the server. + In a scalar context, returns a reference to a list. =item dir ( [ DIR ] ) Get a directory listing of C<DIR>, or the current directory in long fo +rmat. In an array context, returns a list of lines returned from the server. + In a scalar context, returns a reference to a list. =item get ( REMOTE_FILE [, LOCAL_FILE [, WHERE]] ) Get C<REMOTE_FILE> from the server and store locally. C<LOCAL_FILE> ma +y be a filename or a filehandle. If not specified, the file will be stored +in the current directory with the same leafname as the remote file. If C<WHERE> is given then the first C<WHERE> bytes of the file will not be transfered, and the remaining bytes will be appended to the local file if it already exists. Returns C<LOCAL_FILE>, or the generated local file name if C<LOCAL_FIL +E> is not given. If an error was encountered undef is returned. =item put ( LOCAL_FILE [, REMOTE_FILE ] ) Put a file on the remote server. C<LOCAL_FILE> may be a name or a file +handle. If C<LOCAL_FILE> is a filehandle then C<REMOTE_FILE> must be specified +. If C<REMOTE_FILE> is not specified then the file will be stored in the cu +rrent directory with the same leafname as C<LOCAL_FILE>. Returns C<REMOTE_FILE>, or the generated remote filename if C<REMOTE_F +ILE> is not given. B<NOTE>: If for some reason the transfer does not complete and an erro +r is returned then the contents that had been transfered will not be remove automatically. =item put_unique ( LOCAL_FILE [, REMOTE_FILE ] ) Same as put but uses the C<STOU> command. Returns the name of the file on the server. =item append ( LOCAL_FILE [, REMOTE_FILE ] ) Same as put but appends to the file on the remote server. Returns C<REMOTE_FILE>, or the generated remote filename if C<REMOTE_F +ILE> is not given. =item unique_name () Returns the name of the last file stored on the server using the C<STOU> command. =item mdtm ( FILE ) Returns the I<modification time> of the given file =item size ( FILE ) Returns the size in bytes for the given file as stored on the remote s +erver. B<NOTE>: The size reported is the size of the stored file on the remot +e server. If the file is subsequently transfered from the server in ASCII mode and the remote server and local machine have different ideas about "End Of Line" then the size of file on the local machine after transfe +r may be different. =item supported ( CMD ) Returns TRUE if the remote server supports the given command. =item hash ( [FILEHANDLE_GLOB_REF],[ BYTES_PER_HASH_MARK] ) Called without parameters, or with the first argument false, hash mark +s are suppressed. If the first argument is true but not a reference to +a file handle glob, then \*STDERR is used. The second argument is the n +umber of bytes per hash mark printed, and defaults to 1024. In all cases th +e return value is a reference to an array of two: the filehandle glob r +eference and the bytes per hash mark. =back The following methods can return different results depending on how they are called. If the user explicitly calls either of the C<pasv> or C<port> methods then these methods will return a I<true> or I<false> value. If the user does not call either of these methods then the result will be a reference to a C<Net::FTP::dataconn> based object. =over 4 =item nlst ( [ DIR ] ) Send an C<NLST> command to the server, with an optional parameter. =item list ( [ DIR ] ) Same as C<nlst> but using the C<LIST> command =item retr ( FILE ) Begin the retrieval of a file called C<FILE> from the remote server. =item stor ( FILE ) Tell the server that you wish to store a file. C<FILE> is the name of the new file that should be created. =item stou ( FILE ) Same as C<stor> but using the C<STOU> command. The name of the unique file which was created on the server will be available via the C<uniqu +e_name> method after the data connection has been closed. =item appe ( FILE ) Tell the server that we want to append some data to the end of a file called C<FILE>. If this file does not exist then create it. =back If for some reason you want to have complete control over the data con +nection, this includes generating it and calling the C<response> method when re +quired, then the user can use these methods to do so. However calling these methods only affects the use of the methods abov +e that can return a data connection. They have no effect on methods C<get>, C +<put>, C<put_unique> and those that do not require data connections. =over 4 =item port ( [ PORT ] ) Send a C<PORT> command to the server. If C<PORT> is specified then it +is sent to the server. If not, then a listen socket is created and the correct + information sent to the server. =item pasv () Tell the server to go into passive mode. Returns the text that represe +nts the port on which the server is listening, this text is in a suitable form + to sent to another ftp server using the C<port> method. =back The following methods can be used to transfer files between two remote servers, providing that these two servers can connect directly to each + other. =over 4 =item pasv_xfer ( SRC_FILE, DEST_SERVER [, DEST_FILE ] ) This method will do a file transfer between two remote ftp servers. If C<DEST_FILE> is omitted then the leaf name of C<SRC_FILE> will be used +. =item pasv_xfer_unique ( SRC_FILE, DEST_SERVER [, DEST_FILE ] ) Like C<pasv_xfer> but the file is stored on the remote server using the STOU command. =item pasv_wait ( NON_PASV_SERVER ) This method can be used to wait for a transfer to complete between a p +assive server and a non-passive server. The method should be called on the pa +ssive server with the C<Net::FTP> object for the non-passive server passed a +s an argument. =item abort () Abort the current data transfer. =item quit () Send the QUIT command to the remote FTP server and close the socket co +nnection. =back =head2 Methods for the adventurous C<Net::FTP> inherits from C<Net::Cmd> so methods defined in C<Net::Cmd +> may be used to send commands to the remote FTP server. =over 4 =item quot (CMD [,ARGS]) Send a command, that Net::FTP does not directly support, to the remote server and wait for a response. Returns most significant digit of the response code. B<WARNING> This call should only be used on commands that do not requi +re data connections. Misuse of this method can hang the connection. =back =head1 THE dataconn CLASS Some of the methods defined in C<Net::FTP> return an object which will be derived from this class.The dataconn class itself is derived from the C<IO::Socket::INET> class, so any normal IO operations can be perf +ormed. However the following methods are defined in the dataconn class and IO + should be performed using these. =over 4 =item read ( BUFFER, SIZE [, TIMEOUT ] ) Read C<SIZE> bytes of data from the server and place it into C<BUFFER> +, also performing any <CRLF> translation necessary. C<TIMEOUT> is optional, i +f not given, the timeout value from the command connection will be used. Returns the number of bytes read before any <CRLF> translation. =item write ( BUFFER, SIZE [, TIMEOUT ] ) Write C<SIZE> bytes of data from C<BUFFER> to the server, also performing any <CRLF> translation necessary. C<TIMEOUT> is optional, i +f not given, the timeout value from the command connection will be used. Returns the number of bytes written before any <CRLF> translation. =item bytes_read () Returns the number of bytes read so far. =item abort () Abort the current data transfer. =item close () Close the data connection and get a response from the FTP server. Retu +rns I<true> if the connection was closed successfully and the first digit +of the response from the server was a '2'. =back =head1 UNIMPLEMENTED The following RFC959 commands have not been implemented: =over 4 =item B<SMNT> Mount a different file system structure without changing login or accounting information. =item B<HELP> Ask the server for "helpful information" (that's what the RFC says) on the commands it accepts. =item B<MODE> Specifies transfer mode (stream, block or compressed) for file to be transferred. =item B<SYST> Request remote server system identification. =item B<STAT> Request remote server status. =item B<STRU> Specifies file structure for file to be transferred. =item B<REIN> Reinitialize the connection, flushing all I/O and account information. =back =head1 REPORTING BUGS When reporting bugs/problems please include as much information as pos +sible. It may be difficult for me to reproduce the problem as almost every se +tup is different. A small script which yields the problem will probably be of help. It w +ould also be useful if this script was run with the extra options C<Debug = +> 1> passed to the constructor, and the output sent with the bug report. If + you cannot include a small script then please include a Debug trace from a run of your program which does yield the problem. =head1 AUTHOR Graham Barr <gbarr@pobox.com> =head1 SEE ALSO L<Net::Netrc> L<Net::Cmd> ftp(1), ftpd(8), RFC 959 http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/htbin/rfc/rfc959.html =head1 USE EXAMPLES For an example of the use of Net::FTP see =over 4 =item http://www.csh.rit.edu/~adam/Progs/ C<autoftp> is a program that can retrieve, send, or list files via the FTP protocol in a non-interactive manner. =back =head1 CREDITS Henry Gabryjelski <henryg@WPI.EDU> - for the suggestion of creating di +rectories recursively.
