PHP and FTP: A quick way to transfer files

Introduction:
In the process of web development, it is often necessary to upload and download files, and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a commonly used file Transfer Protocol. In order to achieve fast file transfer, combined with the powerful functions of PHP, we can easily implement FTP file transfer. This article will introduce how to use PHP for FTP file upload and download, with code examples.

1. FTP file upload:
The following is a code example for FTP file upload using PHP:

<?php
// 连接FTP服务器
$ftp_server = 'ftp.example.com';
$ftp_username = 'username';
$ftp_password = 'password';
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_username, $ftp_password);

if ($conn_id && $login_result) {
    echo "FTP服务器连接成功
";

    $local_file = 'path/to/local/file.txt';
    $remote_file = 'path/to/remote/file.txt';

    // 上传文件
    if (ftp_put($conn_id, $remote_file, $local_file, FTP_BINARY)) {
        echo "文件上传成功
";
    } else {
        echo "文件上传失败
";
    }

    // 断开FTP服务器连接
    ftp_close($conn_id);
} else {
    echo "FTP服务器连接失败
";
}
?>

In the above code, we first use ftp_connect()Function to connect to FTP server. Then use the ftp_login() function to log in to the FTP server. Next, we specify the local file and target file path to be uploaded, and use the ftp_put() function to perform the upload operation. Finally, use the ftp_close() function to disconnect from the FTP server.

2. FTP file download:
The following is a code example for using PHP to download FTP files:

<?php
// 连接FTP服务器
$ftp_server = 'ftp.example.com';
$ftp_username = 'username';
$ftp_password = 'password';
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_username, $ftp_password);

if ($conn_id && $login_result) {
    echo "FTP服务器连接成功
";

    $remote_file = 'path/to/remote/file.txt';
    $local_file = 'path/to/local/file.txt';

    // 下载文件
    if (ftp_get($conn_id, $local_file, $remote_file, FTP_BINARY)) {
        echo "文件下载成功
";
    } else {
        echo "文件下载失败
";
    }

    // 断开FTP服务器连接
    ftp_close($conn_id);
} else {
    echo "FTP服务器连接失败
";
}
?>

In the above code, we also use ftp_connect()Function and ftp_login() function connects and logs in to the FTP server. Then, we specify the remote file and local file paths to be downloaded, and use the ftp_get() function to perform the download operation. Finally, also use the ftp_close() function to disconnect from the FTP server.

Conclusion:
By combining PHP and FTP protocols, we can quickly upload and download files. Using FTP has better performance and efficiency when transferring large amounts of files. The above code examples can help you quickly get started with FTP file transfer, but you need to pay attention to security and ensure the confidentiality and rationality of the FTP account password.

To sum up, mastering the methods of uploading and downloading FTP files is a very useful skill for web development engineers, which can handle file transfer requirements more conveniently during the development process and improve work efficiency.
