ftp_nb_put

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)

ftp_nb_put -- Stores a file on the FTP server (non-blocking)

Description

int ftp_nb_put ( resource ftp_stream, string remote_file, string local_file, int mode [, int startpos] )

ftp_nb_put() stores a local file on the FTP server.

The difference between this function and the ftp_put() is that this function uploads the file asynchronously, so your program can perform other operations while the file is being uploaded.

Parameters

ftp_stream

The link identifier of the FTP connection.

remote_file

The remote file path.

local_file

The local file path.

mode

The transfer mode. Must be either FTP_ASCII or FTP_BINARY.

startpos

Return Values

Returns FTP_FAILED or FTP_FINISHED or FTP_MOREDATA.

Examples

Example 1. ftp_nb_put() example

<?php

// Initiate the Upload
$ret = ftp_nb_put($my_connection, "test.remote", "test.local", FTP_BINARY);
while (
$ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {
   
   
// Do whatever you want
   
echo ".";

   
// Continue uploading...
   
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection);
}
if (
$ret != FTP_FINISHED) {
   echo
"There was an error uploading the file...";
   exit(
1);
}
?>

Example 2. Resuming an upload with ftp_nb_put()

<?php

// Initiate
$ret = ftp_nb_put($my_connection, "test.remote", "test.local",
                      
FTP_BINARY, ftp_size("test.remote"));
// OR: $ret = ftp_nb_put($my_connection, "test.remote", "test.local",
//                           FTP_BINARY, FTP_AUTORESUME);

while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {
   
   
// Do whatever you want
   
echo ".";

   
// Continue uploading...
   
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection);
}
if (
$ret != FTP_FINISHED) {
   echo
"There was an error uploading the file...";
   exit(
1);
}
?>
