Download Text File into String Variable

Download a text file directly into a string variable.

Download Chilkat Ruby Library

require 'chilkat'

ftp = Chilkat::CkFtp2.new()

# Any string unlocks the component for the 1st 30-days.
success = ftp.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial")
if (success != true)
    print ftp.lastErrorText() + "\n"
    exit
end

ftp.put_Hostname("www.example-code.com")
ftp.put_Username("example-code.com")
ftp.put_Password("****")
ftp.put_Passive(true)

# Connect and login to the FTP server.
success = ftp.Connect()
if (success != true)
    print ftp.lastErrorText() + "\n"
    exit
end

# Change to the remote directory where the existing file is located.
success = ftp.ChangeRemoteDir("junk")
if (success != true)
    print ftp.lastErrorText() + "\n"
    exit
end

# Download the contents of the remote file into memory.

remoteFilename = "hamletQuote.txt"

fileContents = ftp.getRemoteFileTextData(remoteFilename)
# An empty string indicates a failure. If it is possible
# that the file could be an empty file on the server,
# you call GetSizeByName to check.  The ftp.GetSizeByname
# method accepts a filename and returns the size of the
# remote file or -1 if it does not exist or if there is an error.

ftp.Disconnect()

print fileContents + "\n";
