--- currentMenu: ftp --- # FTP First, you will need to install the adapter: ```bash composer require gaufrette/ftp-adapter ``` `ftp` extension should be enabled in order to use this adapter. Also, some FTP servers need valid configuration so Gaufrette can work with them as expected. ## Server configuration Some FTP servers does not show hidden files by default. You will probably need to tweak your server configuration. ### Pure Ftpd ```bash echo "yes" > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/DisplayDotFiles ``` ### Proftpd We need to change `ListOptions` in proftpd configuration (at debian system `/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf`) to: ```bash ListOptions "-la" ``` ### Example The third argument of the `Ftp` adapter is not mandatory, however you can use it to pass configuration options (port, username, password, etc.): ```php 21, 'username' => 'my_username', 'password' => 'my_password', 'passive' => true, 'create' => true, // Whether to create the remote directory if it does not exist 'mode' => FTP_BINARY, // Or FTP_TEXT 'ssl' => true, )); $filesystem = new Filesystem($adapter); ```
