ftpext – Main package

class ftpext.ftpext.FTPExt(host, port, user, password, use_ssl=False, use_log=False, debug=0)

Bases: ftplib.FTP_TLS

Extensions to the ‘ftplib’ standard library. Features include: XDUPE support. Stat -L directory listing support. FXP-support CPSV/PSV. Logging and other useful features, have a look yourself.

I’ve made the getter functions thread-safe to make multiple objects easier to handle. It inherits from ftplib.FTP_TLS which means that it supports AUTH TLS and Clear Text, which to use is specified when the object is initialized.
