Easyftp

A wrapper around pyftplib with start script and deps to run it as daemon.

On Debian/Ubuntu

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip build-essential python-dev

Install the server

$ sudo pip install -r requirements/common.txt
$ cp conf/ftp-example.conf conf/ftp.conf

Now change your settings in the YAML file:

users:
  - name: luca
    dir: /Users/luca
    password: test1
    permission: elradfmwM

  - name: test
    dir: /Users/luca/Development
    password: test2
    permission: elradfmwM

server:
  port: 2121
  listen: 0.0.0.0
#  Put your public ip here if you are behind a NAT (Amazon AWS or similar)
#  masquerade_address: 8.8.8.8
  passive_ports:
    start: 60000
    end: 65535

Start the daemon:

 $ zdaemon -C conf/zdaemon.conf start

Autostart on boot:

Edit /etc/rc.local and add a line to call the starter script: 'autostart-easyftp.sh'

To activate log rotation add this script in /etc/logrotate.conf:

/var/log/pyftpd.log {
    daily
    compress
    rotate 10
    postrotate
        /usr/bin/pkill -xf "python app/main.py"
    endscript
}

Enjoy!
