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. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

ftp = Chilkat::CkFtp2.new()

ftp.put_Hostname("ftp.example.com")
ftp.put_Username("login")
ftp.put_Password("password")

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

# Rename the remote file (or directory)
existingFilepath = "dirA/hello.txt"
newFilepath = "dirB/hello.txt"
success = ftp.RenameRemoteFile(existingFilepath,newFilepath)
if (success != true)
    print ftp.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

success = ftp.Disconnect()
