public class Client
extends org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTP

Client.java encapsulates functionalities necessary for nutch to get dir list and retrieve file from an FTP server. This class takes care of all low level details of interacting with an FTP server and provides a convenient higher level interface. Modified from FtpClient.java in apache commons-net. Notes by John Xing: ftp server implementations are hardly uniform and none seems to follow RFCs whole-heartedly. We have no choice, but assume common denominator as following: (1) Use stream mode for data tranfer. Block mode will be better for multiple file downloading and partial file downloading. However not every ftpd has block mode support. (2) Use passive mode for data connection. So nutch will work if we run behind firewall. (3) Data connection is opened/closed per ftp command for the reasons listed in (1). There are ftp servers out there, when partial downloading is enforeced by closing data channel socket on our client side, the server side immediately closes control channel (socket). Our codes deal with such a bad behavior. (4) LIST is used to obtain remote file attributes if possible. MDTM & SIZE would be nice, but not as ubiquitously implemented as LIST. (5) Avoid using ABOR in single thread? Do not use it at all. About exceptions: Some specific exceptions are re-thrown as one of FtpException*.java In fact, each function throws FtpException*.java or pass IOException.

Throws:

IOException

FtpExceptionCanNotHaveDataConnection

setDataTimeout

public void setDataTimeout(int timeout)

Sets the timeout in milliseconds to use for data connection. set immediately after opening the data connection.

disconnect

public void disconnect()
                throws IOException

Closes the connection to the FTP server and restores connection parameters to the default values.

Overrides:

disconnect in class org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTP

Throws:

IOException - If an error occurs while disconnecting.

setRemoteVerificationEnabled

public void setRemoteVerificationEnabled(boolean enable)

Enable or disable verification that the remote host taking part of a data connection is the same as the host to which the control connection is attached. The default is for verification to be enabled. You may set this value at any time, whether the FTPClient is currently connected or not.

Parameters:

enable - True to enable verification, false to disable verification.

isRemoteVerificationEnabled

public boolean isRemoteVerificationEnabled()

Return whether or not verification of the remote host participating in data connections is enabled. The default behavior is for verification to be enabled.

Returns:

True if verification is enabled, false if not.

setFileType

public boolean setFileType(int fileType)
                    throws IOException

Sets the file type to be transferred. This should be one of FTP.ASCII_FILE_TYPE , FTP.IMAGE_FILE_TYPE , etc. The file type only needs to be set when you want to change the type. After changing it, the new type stays in effect until you change it again. The default file type is FTP.ASCII_FILE_TYPE if this method is never called.

Parameters:

fileType - The _FILE_TYPE constant indcating the type of file.

Returns:

True if successfully completed, false if not.

Throws:

org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException - If the FTP server prematurely closes the connection as a result of the client being idle or some other reason causing the server to send FTP reply code 421. This exception may be caught either as an IOException or independently as itself.

IOException - If an I/O error occurs while either sending a command to the server or receiving a reply from the server.

getSystemName

public String getSystemName()
                     throws IOException,
                            FtpExceptionBadSystResponse

Fetches the system type name from the server and returns the string. This value is cached for the duration of the connection after the first call to this method. In other words, only the first time that you invoke this method will it issue a SYST command to the FTP server. FTPClient will remember the value and return the cached value until a call to disconnect.

Returns:

The system type name obtained from the server. null if the information could not be obtained.

Throws:

org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException - If the FTP server prematurely closes the connection as a result of the client being idle or some other reason causing the server to send FTP reply code 421. This exception may be caught either as an IOException or independently as itself.

IOException - If an I/O error occurs while either sending a command to the server or receiving a reply from the server.

FtpExceptionBadSystResponse

sendNoOp

public boolean sendNoOp()
                 throws IOException

Sends a NOOP command to the FTP server. This is useful for preventing server timeouts.

Returns:

True if successfully completed, false if not.

Throws:

org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException - If the FTP server prematurely closes the connection as a result of the client being idle or some other reason causing the server to send FTP reply code 421. This exception may be caught either as an IOException or independently as itself.

IOException - If an I/O error occurs while either sending a command to the server or receiving a reply from the server.
