ftputil 2.2 is now available from http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/download .
Changes since version 2.1 ------------------------- - Results of stat calls (also indirect calls, i. e. listdir, isdir/isfile/islink, exists, getmtime etc.) are now cached and reused. This results in remarkable speedups for many use cases. Thanks to Evan Prodromou for his permission to add his lrucache module under ftputil's license. - The current directory is also locally cached, resulting in further speedups. - It's now possible to write and plug in custom parsers for directory formats which ftputil doesn't support natively. - File-like objects generated via ``FTPHost.file`` now support the iterator protocol (for line in some_file: ...). - The documentation has been updated accordingly. Read it under http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/trac/wiki/Documentation . Possible incompatibilities: - This release requires at least Python 2.3. (Previous releases worked with Python versions from 2.1 up.) - The method ``FTPHost.set_directory_format`` has been removed, since the directory format (Unix or MS) is set automatically. (The new method ``set_parser`` is a different animal since it takes a parser object to parse "foreign" formats, not a string.) What is ftputil? ---------------- ftputil is a high-level FTP client library for the Python programming language. ftputil implements a virtual file system for accessing FTP servers, that is, it can generate file-like objects for remote files. The library supports many functions similar to those in the os, os.path and shutil modules. ftputil has convenience functions for conditional uploads and downloads, and handles FTP clients and servers in different timezones.
