PHP ftp_nb_fget() Function


PHP FTP Reference Complete PHP FTP Reference

Definition and Usage

The ftp_nb_fget() function gets a file from the FTP server and saves it to an open file.

This function returns one of the following values:

  • FTP_FAILED (send/receive failed)
  • FTP_FINISHED (send/receive completed)
  • FTP_MOREDATA (send/receive in progress)

Unlike ftp_fget(), this function retrieves the file asynchronously. This means your program can perform other operations while the file is being downloaded.

Syntax

ftp_nb_fget(ftp_connection,local,remote,mode,resume)

Parameter Description
ftp_connection Required. Specifies the FTP connection to use
local Required. Specifies the open file to paste into
remote Required. Specifies the path of the file to copy from
mode Required. Specifies the transfer mode. The possible values are:
  • FTP_ASCII

resume Optional. Specifies where in the remote file to start copying. Default is 0


Example

This example copies the text from "source.txt" into "target.txt":

<?php
$source = "source.txt";
$target = fopen("target.txt", "w");

$conn = ftp_connect("ftp.testftp.com") or die("Could not connect");
ftp_login($conn,"admin","ert456");

ftp_nb_fget($conn,$target,$source,FTP_ASCII);
