ftp_nb_put

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0)

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 local_file on the FTP server, as remote_file. The transfer mode specified must be either FTP_ASCII or FTP_BINARY. 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.

Returns FTP_FAILED, FTP_FINISHED, or FTP_MOREDATA.

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);
}
?>
