Uploading files using patters <\/strong>is a unique feature of our FTP component<\/a>. It allows you fast upload of files of certain types.<\/p>\n

Here’s the sample that uploads all text files (*.txt) files from C drive, to newly created ‘Uploads’ folder on FTP server. The search includes all child folders recursively<\/strong> – note the true<\/em> parameter in LocalSearchOptions<\/em> constructor. Ftp component is going to create all necessary folders<\/strong> on the remote FTP server for you.<\/p>\n

Upload using wildcard pattern<\/h2>\n
\r\n\/\/ C#\r\n\r\nusing (Ftp ftp = new Ftp())\r\n{\r\n    ftp.Connect("ftp.example.com");    \/\/ or ConnectSSL\r\n\r\n    ftp.CreateFolder("Uploads");\r\n\r\n    LocalSearchOptions options = new LocalSearchOptions("*.txt", true);\r\n    ftp.UploadFiles("Uploads", @"c:\\", options);\r\n\r\n    ftp.Close();\r\n}\r\n<\/pre>\n
\r\n' VB.NET\r\n\r\nUsing ftp As New Ftp()\r\n    ftp.Connect("ftp.example.com")\t' or ConnectSSL\r\n    ftp.CreateFolder("Uploads")\r\n\r\n    Dim options As New LocalSearchOptions("*.txt", True)\r\n    ftp.UploadFiles("Uploads", "c:\\", options)\r\n\r\n    ftp.Close()\r\nEnd Using\r\n<\/pre>\n
Upload using regex pattern<\/h2>\n
