Move File to Another Directory on Server

See more FTP Examples

Moves a file from one directory to another. This is accomplished by renaming the file using a filepath that includes the directory. Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    const ftp = try chilkat.Ftp2.init();
    defer ftp.deinit();

    ftp.setHostname("ftp.example.com");
    ftp.setUsername("login");
    ftp.setPassword("password");

    // Connect and login to the FTP server.
    ftp.connect() catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try ftp.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // Rename the remote file (or directory)
    const existing_filepath = "dirA/hello.txt";
    const new_filepath = "dirB/hello.txt";
    ftp.renameRemoteFile(existing_filepath, new_filepath) catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try ftp.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    try ftp.disconnect();
