Using FTP in jython

Using FTP

In some environments, it can be useful to use FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to transfer files between heterogeneous systems. Oracle Data Integrator provides an additional Jython module to further integrate FTP.
The following examples show how to use this module:
Pull the *.txt files from /home/odi of the server ftp.myserver.com into the local directory c:\temp

import snpsftp
ftp = snpsftp.SnpsFTP('ftp.myserver.com', 'mylogin', 'mypasswd')

try:

  ftp.setmode('ASCII')
  ftp.mget('/home/odi', '*.txt', 'c:/temp')
finally:
  ftp.close()

Push the files *.zip from C:\odi\lib onto ftp.myserver.com in the remote directory /home/odi/lib

import snpsftp
ftp = snpsftp.SnpsFTP('ftp.myserver.com', 'mylogin', 'mypasswd')
try:
  ftp.setmode('BINARY')
  ftp.mput('C:/odi/lib', '*.zip', '/home/odi/lib')
finally:
  ftp.close()
