Back in Feb, was trying to download a file from FTP server by the conventional way using the native X++ code, though we have several approaches and free tools to achieve the same. When i did some research, couldn’t able to find any references in X++ which meets the objective but with few references on FTPWebRequest and FTPWebResponse APIs.
Using the commands from the above APIs, had successfully established connection to the FTP server by passing, authorizing and authenticating valid credentials. Once established the connection, were able to download all the files from the specified path and then deleted them once all the files got downloaded.
The following piece explains the definition and declaration of variables:
// CurrentList inputs declaration Freq ftpTimeOut; Port ftpPortNum; Password ftpPassword; UserName ftpUserName; URL ftpHostName; FilePath saveToFilePath; BK_FTPDownloadSetup ftpDownloadSetup; // FTP files list List ftpFilesList; ListEnumerator ftpFilesListEnum; // Dialog fields declaration DialogField dialogTimeOut; DialogField dialogPortNum; DialogField dialogPassword; DialogField dialogUserName; DialogField dialogHostName; DialogField dialogSaveToFilePath; // Dialog object declaration DialogRunBase dialogRunBase; // FTP objects declaration Object ftpObject; Object ftpResponse; System.String strReadLine; System.IO.Stream ioStream; System.IO.StreamReader ioStreamReader; System.IO.StreamWriter ioStreamWriter; System.Net.FtpWebRequest ftpWebRequest; System.Net.FtpWebResponse ftpWebResponse; System.Net.NetworkCredential networkCredentials; // Macro - FTP public fields #define.DeleteFile("DELE") #define.DownloadFile("RETR") #define.ListDirectory("NLST") #define.ClrFileAccessEnum (‘System.IO.FileAccess‘) #define.ClrFileAccessWrite (‘Write‘) // Macro #define.CurrentVersion(2) #LOCALMACRO.CurrentList ftpTimeOut, ftpPortNum, ftpPassword, ftpUserName, ftpHostName, saveToFilePath #ENDMACRO
The following code helps to explore the files in the given directory.
private void getFTPDirFilesList() { container conFTPFilesDownload; ListIterator ftpFilesListIterator; // Marshaling .NET to X++ ftpObject = System.Net.WebRequest::Create(ftpHostName); ftpWebRequest = ftpObject; if (ftpWebRequest) { ftpWebRequest.set_KeepAlive(false); ftpWebRequest.set_UsePassive(true); ftpWebRequest.set_UseBinary(true); ftpWebRequest.set_Timeout(ftpTimeOut); ftpWebRequest.set_Method(#ListDirectory); this.setFTPCredentials(); ftpWebResponse = ftpWebRequest.GetResponse(); if (ftpWebResponse) { ftpFilesList = new list(Types::String); // BP Deviation Documented ioStreamReader = new System.IO.StreamReader(ftpWebResponse.GetResponseStream()); if (ioStreamReader) { strReadLine = ioStreamReader.ReadLine(); while (!System.String::IsNullOrEmpty(strReadLine)) { ftpFilesListIterator = new Listiterator(strsplit(strReadLine, ‘/‘)); while (ftpFilesListIterator.more()) { conFTPFilesDownload += ftpFilesListIterator.value(); ftpFilesListIterator.next(); } ftpFilesList.addEnd(conPeek(conFTPFilesDownload, conlen(conFTPFilesDownload))); strReadLine = ioStreamReader.ReadLine(); } ioStreamReader.Close(); } if (ftpFilesList.empty()) { warning (strfmt("No files available in %1", ftpHostName)); } } } }
The code below is used to set the credentials
private void setFTPCredentials() { // BP Deviation Documented networkCredentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(ftpUserName, ftpPassword); ftpWebRequest.set_Credentials(networkCredentials); }
The following code is actually doing the file download
private void ftpDownloadAllFiles() { str fileNameType; FilePath filePathDest; ; ftpFilesListEnum = ftpFilesList.getEnumerator(); ftpFilesListEnum.reset(); while (ftpFilesListEnum.moveNext()) { fileNameType = ftpFilesListEnum.current(); // Marshaling .NET to X++ ftpObject = System.Net.WebRequest::Create(ftpHostName + @"/" + fileNameType); ftpWebRequest = ftpObject; if (ftpWebRequest) { ftpWebRequest.set_KeepAlive(false); ftpWebRequest.set_UsePassive(true); ftpWebRequest.set_UseBinary(true); ftpWebRequest.set_Timeout(ftpTimeOut); ftpWebRequest.set_Method(#DownloadFile); ftpWebRequest.set_ReadWriteTimeout(ftpTimeOut); this.setFTPCredentials(); ftpWebResponse = ftpWebRequest.GetResponse(); // BP Deviation Documented ioStreamReader = new System.IO.StreamReader(ftpWebResponse.GetResponseStream()); if (ioStreamReader) { strReadLine = ioStreamReader.ReadToEnd(); if (strReadLine) { filePathDest = saveToFilePath + @"\" + fileNameType; this.writeFile(filePathDest); info(strfmt("Downloaded file %1 to %2", fileNameType, saveToFilePath)); } ioStreamReader.Close(); } } } }
The following code is used to write all the downloaded files
private void writeFile(FilePath _filePath) { // BP Deviation Documented ioStreamWriter = new System.IO.StreamWriter(_filePath); if (ioStreamWriter) { ioStreamWriter.Write(strReadLine); ioStreamWriter.Flush(); ioStreamWriter.Close(); } }
The following code is used to delete the files to delete them all.
private void ftpDeleteAllFiles() { Str fileNameType; ftpFilesListEnum = ftpFilesList.getEnumerator(); ftpFilesListEnum.reset(); while (ftpFilesListEnum.moveNext()) { fileNameType = ftpFilesListEnum.current(); // Marshaling .NET to X++ ftpObject = System.Net.WebRequest::Create(ftpHostName + @"/" + fileNameType); ftpWebRequest = ftpObject; if (ftpWebRequest) { // ftpWebRequest.set_KeepAlive(false); // ftpWebRequest.set_UsePassive(true); // ftpWebRequest.set_UseBinary(true); ftpWebRequest.set_Method(#DeleteFile); // ftpWebRequest.set_Timeout(ftpTimeOut); // ftpWebRequest.set_ReadWriteTimeout(ftpTimeOut); this.setFTPCredentials(); ftpWebResponse = ftpWebRequest.GetResponse(); if (ftpWebResponse) { info(strfmt("Deleted file %1 from %2", fileNameType, ftpHostName)); } } }
