ftp_nb_getRetrieves a file from the FTP server and writes it to a local file (non-blocking)

Опис

ftp_nb_get(
    FTP\Connection $ftp,
    string $local_filename,
    string $remote_filename,
    int $mode = FTP_BINARY,
    int $offset = 0
): int|false

ftp_nb_get() retrieves a remote file from the FTP server, and saves it into a local file.

The difference between this function and ftp_get() is that this function retrieves the file asynchronously, so your program can perform other operations while the file is being downloaded.

Приклади

Приклад #1 ftp_nb_get() example

<?php

// Initiate the download
$ret = ftp_nb_get($ftp, "test", "README", FTP_BINARY);
while (
$ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {

// Do whatever you want
echo ".";

// Continue downloading...
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($ftp);
}
if (
$ret != FTP_FINISHED) {
echo
"There was an error downloading the file...";
exit(
1);
}
?>

Приклад #2 Resuming a download with ftp_nb_get()

<?php

// Initiate
$ret = ftp_nb_get($ftp, "test", "README", FTP_BINARY,
filesize("test"));
// OR: $ret = ftp_nb_get($ftp, "test", "README",
// FTP_BINARY, FTP_AUTORESUME);
while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {

// Do whatever you want
echo ".";

// Continue downloading...
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($ftp);
}
if (
$ret != FTP_FINISHED) {
echo
"There was an error downloading the file...";
exit(
1);
}
?>

Приклад #3 Resuming a download at position 100 to a new file with ftp_nb_get()

<?php

// Disable Autoseek
ftp_set_option($ftp, FTP_AUTOSEEK, false);

// Initiate
$ret = ftp_nb_get($ftp, "newfile", "README", FTP_BINARY, 100);
while (
$ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {

/* ... */

// Continue downloading...
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($ftp);
}
?>

In the example above, newfile is 100 bytes smaller than README on the FTP server because we started reading at offset 100. If we didn't disable FTP_AUTOSEEK, the first 100 bytes of newfile would be '\0'.

Note that you may have to keep calling ftp_nb_continue in order to complete the download. For example, if you do this:

<?php
ftp_nb_get
($conn,$localfile,$remotefile,FTP_BINARY)
//do some LONG time work
while(ftp_nb_continue($conn)!=FTP_FINISHED){}
?>

Your local file may only contains a few kilobytes and the later ftp_nb_continue will keep raising warning of no more data (due to connection time out, I guess).

So you may want to do this instead:

<?php
$dl
=ftp_nb_get($conn,$localfile,$remotefile,FTP_BINARY)
//part of long time work
if(ftp_nb_continue($conn)==FTP_MOREDATA) {}
//part of long time work
if(ftp_nb_continue($conn)==FTP_MOREDATA) {}
//continue to do this until you finish the long time work
while(ftp_nb_continue($conn)==FTP_MOREDATA){}
?>

This happened on my Windows XP + PHP 5.3.8 under CLI. Hope this helps someone.
