auto-ftp
auto-ftp is an automation tool for deploying via FTP. It allows you to describe the files that need to be deployed, where to deploy it to, and what credentials to use in a configuration file so it works the same every time.
Installation
npm install -g auto-ftp
Configuration
auto-ftp --init
Generates the ftp_config.json file. Fill in the host, username, and password fields...
{
"ftpConfig" : {
"host": "",
"username": "",
"password": ""
},
"ftpBatches": [{
"localRoot": "",
"remoteRoot": "",
"match": ["**", "!package.json", "!node_modules"]
}]
}
Run it
auto-ftp
to start transfer.
auto-ftp -h
for help.
