Hello everybody!
I am working on Windows XP and I want to do the following:
1. Connecting to a server using ftp
2. Getting the directory structure and the size of each directory in the
root
3. Getting the owner of a file
All these steps I want to do with python. What I already have is:
1. Connecting to ftp
import ftplib
ftp = ftplib.FTP('host')
ftp.login(')
directory = '/'
ftp.cwd(directory)
linelist = []
ftp.retrlines('LIST', linelist.append)
ftp.close()
2. Getting the directory structure and the size of each directory in the
root
But I am don't know how to send commands to ftp and capturing the result
If have tried:
a = []
a=ftp.sendcmd('Dir')
By trying to get the directory with 'dir', I am getting an Error 500
result.
Furthermore I don't know how to get the directory size. Even I don't know
the best command for it.
3. Getting the owner of a file
Can I get the owner for one file? I know with the LIST you get them all.
Please be so kind and post a little bit of a solution code
Thank you very much!
