class URI::FTP

Parent:
Generic
Included modules:
OpenURI::OpenRead

FTP URI syntax is defined by RFC1738 section 3.2.

This class will be redesigned because of difference of implementations; the structure of its path. draft-hoffman-ftp-uri-04 is a draft but it is a good summary about the de facto spec. tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hoffman-ftp-uri-04

Constants

COMPONENT

An Array of the available components for URI::FTP

DEFAULT_PORT

A Default port of 21 for URI::FTP

TYPECODE

Typecode is “a”, “i” or “d”.

  • “a” indicates a text file (the FTP command was ASCII)

  • “i” indicates a binary file (FTP command IMAGE)

  • “d” indicates the contents of a directory should be displayed

TYPECODE_PREFIX

Typecode prefix

';type='

Attributes

typecode[R]

typecode accessor

Description

Creates a new URI::FTP object from components, with syntax checking.

The components accepted are userinfo, host, port, path and typecode.

The components should be provided either as an Array, or as a Hash with keys formed by preceding the component names with a colon.

If an Array is used, the components must be passed in the order

userinfo, host, port, path, typecode

If the path supplied is absolute, it will be escaped in order to make it absolute in the URI. Examples:

require 'uri'

uri = URI::FTP.build(['user:password', 'ftp.example.com', nil,
  '/path/file.> zip', 'i'])
puts uri.to_s  ->  ftp://user:[email protected]/%2Fpath/file.zip;type=a

uri2 = URI::FTP.build({:host => 'ftp.example.com',
  :path => 'ruby/src'})
puts uri2.to_s  ->  ftp://ftp.example.com/ruby/src

    typecode = @path[tmp + TYPECODE_PREFIX.size..-1]
    @path = @path[0..tmp - 1]

    end
  end
end

Description

Creates a new URI::FTP object from generic URL components with no syntax checking.

Unlike build(), this method does not escape the path component as required by RFC1738; instead it is treated as per RFC2396.

Arguments are scheme, userinfo, host, port, registry, path, opaque, query and fragment, in that order.

Calls superclass method

Public Instance Methods

path() Show source 
# File lib/uri/ftp.rb, line 240
def path
  return @path.sub(/^\//,'').sub(/^%2F/,'/')
end

Returns the path from an FTP URI.

RFC 1738 specifically states that the path for an FTP URI does not include the / which separates the URI path from the URI host. Example:

ftp://ftp.example.com/pub/ruby

The above URI indicates that the client should connect to ftp.example.com then cd pub/ruby from the initial login directory.

If you want to cd to an absolute directory, you must include an escaped / (%2F) in the path. Example:

ftp://ftp.example.com/%2Fpub/ruby

This method will then return “/pub/ruby”

to_s() Show source 
# File lib/uri/ftp.rb, line 251
def to_s
  save_path = nil
  if @typecode
    save_path = @path
    @path = @path + TYPECODE_PREFIX + @typecode
  end
  str = super
  if @typecode
    @path = save_path
  end

  return str
end

Returns a String representation of the URI::FTP

Calls superclass method
typecode=(typecode) Show source 
# File lib/uri/ftp.rb, line 208
def typecode=(typecode)
  check_typecode(typecode)
  set_typecode(typecode)

end

Args

v

String

Description

public setter for the typecode v. (with validation)

Usage

require 'uri'

uri = URI.parse("ftp://[email protected]/my_file.img")
#=> #<URI::FTP:0x00000000923650 URL:ftp://[email protected]/my_file.img>
uri.typecode = "i"
# =>  "i"
uri
#=> #<URI::FTP:0x00000000923650 URL:ftp://[email protected]/my_file.img;type=i>

Protected Instance Methods

set_path(v) Show source 
# File lib/uri/ftp.rb, line 245
def set_path(v)
  super("/" + v.sub(/^\//, "%2F"))
end

Private setter for the path of the URI::FTP

Calls superclass method
set_typecode(v) Show source 
# File lib/uri/ftp.rb, line 179
def set_typecode(v)
  @typecode = v
end

Private setter for the typecode v

see also #typecode=

Private Instance Methods

check_typecode(v) Show source 
# File lib/uri/ftp.rb, line 165
def check_typecode(v)
  if TYPECODE.include?(v)
    return true
  else
    raise InvalidComponentError,
      "bad typecode(expected #{TYPECODE.join(', ')}): #{v}"
  end
end

validates typecode v, returns a true or false boolean
