ftp_nb_fput

Stores a file from an open file to the FTP server (non-blocking)

Description

int ftp_nb_fput(
    FTP\Connection $ftp,
    string $remote_filename,
    resource $stream,
    int $mode = FTP_BINARY,
    int $offset = 0
)

ftp_nb_fput uploads the data from a file pointer to a remote file on the FTP server.

The difference between this function and the ftp_fput is that this function uploads the file asynchronously, so your program can perform other operations while the file is being uploaded.

Parameters

ftp

An FTP\Connection instance.

remote_filename

The remote file path.

stream

An open file pointer on the local file. Reading stops at end of file.

mode

The transfer mode. Must be either FTP_ASCII or FTP_BINARY.

offset

The position in the remote file to start uploading to.

Return Values

Returns FTP_FAILED or FTP_FINISHED or FTP_MOREDATA.

Changelog

Version Description
8.1.0 The ftp parameter expects an FTP\Connection instance now; previously, a resource was expected.
7.3.0 The mode parameter is now optional. Formerly it has been mandatory.

$login_result = ftp_login($ftp, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);

// Initiate the upload
$ret = ftp_nb_fput($ftp, $file, $fp, FTP_BINARY);
while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {

   // Do whatever you want
   echo ".";

   // Continue upload...
