Detailed Dcoumentation

How FTP Works in Zope

• The FTP server implementation is in zope.server.ftp.server. See the README.txt file there.

  The publisher-based ftp server is in zope.server.ftp.publisher.

  The FTP server gets wired up with a request factory that creates ftp requests with ftp publication objects.

• The ftp request object is defined in zope.publisher.ftp.

• The ftp publication object is defined in zope.app.publication.ftp.

  The publication object gets views to handle ftp requests. It looks up a separate view for each method defined in zope.publisher.interfaces.ftp.IFTPPublisher.

  We provide a single class here that implements all of these methods.

  The view, in turn, uses adapters for the IReadFile, IWriteFile, IReadDirectory, IWriteDirectory, IFileFactory, and IDirectoryFactory, defined in zope.filerepresentation.interfaces.
