This FTP server is a gateway between old-school FTP devices and modern cloud based file systems, using the afero's Fs interface and acting as a reference implementation of the ftpserverlib.
At the current stage, supported backend are:
- Local disk
- S3 through afero-s3
- Dropbox (see doc) through afero-dropbox
- Google Drive (see doc) through afero-gdrive
- SFTP through afero's sftpfs
- Email through go-mail thanks to @x-way
And with those are supported common parameters to switch them to read-only, enable login access, or use a temporary directory file (see doc).
These features are brought by ftpserverlib itself:
- Uploading and downloading files
- Directory listing (LIST + MLST)
- File and directory deletion and renaming
- TLS support (AUTH + PROT)
- File download/upload resume support (REST)
- Complete driver for all the above features
- Passive socket connections (EPSV and PASV commands)
- Active socket connections (PORT command)
- Small memory footprint
- Only relies on the standard library except for:
- go-kit log for logging
- afero for generic file systems handling
- Supported extensions:

# Creating a directory
mkdir -p files
# Starting the sample FTP server
docker run --rm -d -p 2121-2130:2121-2130 -v $(pwd)/files:/tmp -v $(pwd):/app fclairamb/ftpserver# docker-compose.yml
version: '3.3'

volumes:

- .:/app
image: fclairamb/ftpserverdocker-compose up -dThis is a quick way to see if it's working correctly:
# Download some file
[ -f kitty.jpg ] || (curl -o kitty.jpg.tmp https://placekitten.com/2048/2048 && mv kitty.jpg.tmp kitty.jpg)
# Upload it to the server
curl -v -T kitty.jpg ftp://test:test@localhost:2121/
# Download it back
curl ftp://test:test@localhost:2121/kitty.jpg -o kitty2.jpg
# Compare it
diff kitty.jpg kitty2.jpgIf you don't create a ftpserver.json file, one will be created for you.

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:4096 -x509 -sha256 -days 365 -nodes -out cert.pem -keyout key.pem
