=== SITEADD ===
The site structure. Protocol version 0.1 defines 23 entries for a
site, plus any number of client defined key/pairs. The latter are not
parsed by FXP.One, but stored for the ease of the client
programmers. The clients can then chose to be completely stateless and
only store information needed in FXP.One.
 
Please be aware that SITELIST, SITEADD and SITEMOD commands will only
show (set) values that are NOT the default value. That means, if a
site has "passive" set to "AUTO" it will not be included in the
SITELIST reply. It is the responsibility of the client to also
initialise the "passive" variable to "AUTO".
 
The site structure is defined as:
 
char          *name;
char          *host;
unsigned int  port;          // Default: 21
unsigned long  iface;
unsigned int  iport;        // Default: 0
char          *user;
char          *pass;
yesnoauto_t    passive;      // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    fxp_passive;  // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    control_TLS;  // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    data_TLS;      // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    desired_type;  // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    resume;        // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    resume_last;  // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    pret;          // Default: AUTO
char          *fskiplist;
char          *dskiplist;
char          *fpasslist;
char          *dpasslist;
char          *fmovefirst;
char          *dmovefirst;
yesnoauto_t    fskipempty;    // Default: AUTO
yesnoauto_t    dskipempty;    // Default: AUTO

A session refer to a site connection. The API will ask for a new
session to a specific site (specified with SITEID) and a session will
be created. If the connection is lost or closed, _the session is
closed_. The API will have to request a new session if so desired.
 
 
** SESSIONNEW
 
Request a new session to site, returning a SID to session.
 
[ Minimal Required Fields]
 
>> SITEID=<int>    - Which remote server to connect to, from SITELIST.
 
[ Optional Arguments ]
 
>> LOG            - Normal login is silent. With LOG the API received
                    all verbose messages.
 
[ Returns ]
 
>> SID=<int>      - Value of the new SID for all future commands with
                    sessions
>> CODE=<int>      - Command return status CODE.
>> MSG=<str>      - Command return message.
 
 
 
[ Example ]
 
>> sessionnew|siteid=0
<< SESSIONNEW|SITEID=0|SID=1
<< IDLE|SID=1
 
 
 
 
 
 
** SESSIONFREE
 
Release a session, and disconnect from remote host.
 
 
[ Minimal Required Fields]
 
>> SID=<int>        - SID of the session to close.
 
[ Optional Arguments ]
 
 
 
[ Returns ]
 
>> SID=<int>        - SID of the session closed.
>> CODE=<int>        - Command return status CODE.
>> MSG=<str>        - Command return message.
 
 
[ Example ]
 
>> SESSIONFREE|SID=1
<< SESSIONFREE|CODE=0|SID=1|MSG=Success
 
 
 
 
 
 
** ASYNC
 
 
<< CONNECT|SID=1
 
Send once a session has successfully logged in and is ready to answer
queries. Initially it was thought that IDLE would be enough, but
clients will generally want to auto-trigger some commands upon
connection establish, so we provide this event.
 
 
<< IDLE|SID=1       
 
Site is idle, ready for more commands. Informative only as you can
always issue commands, they will be queued.
 
 
 
<< DISCONNECT|SID=1|CODE=429|MSG=Undefined error: 0
 
The session was disconnected. Any further references to the SID (in
this case "1") will result in an error.
 
 
 
<< LOG|SID=1|MSG=
 
You can request a SESSIONNEW to be logged (LOG), or, most of the
commands take an option "LOG" to specify that logging is desired
during the execution of said command. This means the engine will
forward all messages from the remote FTPD to the client. For example:
 
>> CWD|SID=2|path=/requests
<< CWD|SID=2|CODE=0|MSG=250 CWD command successful.
 
>> CWD|SID=2|path=requests|LOG
<< CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250-REQUESTS ADMIN: roger
<< CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250-
<< CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250-RULES: Please use format of REQ- and FILLED-

You can also specify QTYPE for this addition, either due to manual queuing, or to override the FID type. If you get it wrong, the queue processing will also get it wrong.

<< QERR|QID=1|QTYPE=FILE|SRC=NORTH|SRCPATH=/Giana_Sisters_GBA//gfx_blocks.txt|DSTPATH=/tmp/tmp//gfx_blocks.txt|DERR_0=553 gfx_blocks.txt: Can't open for writing
<< QERR|QID=1|END
 
 
 
 
** QDEL
 
Delete an item in the queue. If a client wishes to delete multiple
items, it is advised that the client pre-sorts the items list, and
send it with highest queue position first, in descending order. It is
an error to attempt to delete queue item at first position (@=0) if
the queue is active.
 
Please be aware that since deleting a queue item early in the list,
will affect queue items in a later position. That is to say, if you
intend to delete items 1,4,8 from the queue, and you issue 3 QDEL
commands "blindly" in the same order (1,4,8), the net effect will be
that queue items 1,5,10 are actually deleted. When queue item 1 is
deleted, item at position 4 is now 3, and item 5 is at position 4.
 
Either the clients need to be aware of the re-numbering and compensate
for later commands,
OR,
much easier is to sort the list in descending order before issuing the
QDEL commands. Ie, send QDEL commands in the order 8,4,1.

<< QDEL|QID=1|CODE=0|@=53|ITEMS=0
 
 
 
 
 
 
** QMOVE
 
Move an item in the queue from one position to a new position. It is
an error to move a queue item from, or to, the first position (@=0)
when a queue is active.

** QGRAB
 
QGRAB lets a client take control of an idle queue, and the queue's
sessions, if any. This is currently the only way to gain access to
sessions given away with the "GO" command. If the queue had any
connected sessions, the client should receive appropriate CONNECT
messages.
 
 
[ Minimal Required Fields]
 
>> QID=<int>        - Queue id in question
 
 
[ Optional Arguments ]
 
 
 
[ Returns ]
 
>> QID=<int>        - Queue id

>> NORTH_SID=<int>  - Session ID of North site, if connected.
>> SOUTH_SID=<int>  - Session ID of South site, if connected.
>> NORTH_SITEID=int - Site ID of North site, for future SESSIONNEW

** QCOMPARE
 
Compare the two directories in the session cache against each other,
sending back list of FIDs that would be queued by FXP.One. This gives
GUIs an easy way to show which items would be queued, and processed in
a given set of directories. The compare function uses all the logic,
including skiplists, passlists, movefirst and skipempty. It compares
file sizes to ignore those of the same size, but highlights the side
with the smaller size should they differ.

** QUEUEFREE
 
Release an existing queue, release its sessions, and queue items.
 
 
[ Minimal Required Fields]
 
>> QID=<int>        - Queue ID
 
 
[ Optional Arguments ]
 
 
 
[ Returns ]
 
>> QID=<int>        - Queue ID
>> CODE=<int>      - Command return status CODE.
>> MSG=<str>        - Command return message.
 
 
[ Example ]
 
>> QUEUEFREE|QID=1
<< QUEUEFREE|CODE=0|QID=1|Msg=Queue released.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
** GO
 
Issue "GO" to a queue. Request FXP.One engine to start processing the
queue and its items. The client loses ownership of the two SIDS at the
issue of the "GO" command.  You may no longer issue commands directory
to the SIDs. Once a queue is idle, either from the QC|EMPTY message,
or after issuing the STOP command, the client can issue the "QGRAB"
command to receive controls of the SIDs, if still existing.
 
 
[ Minimal Required Fields]
 
>> QID=<int>        - Queue ID
 
 
[ Optional Arguments ]
 
>> SUBSCRIBE        - Subscribe to queue status (QS) and queue changes (QC) 
 
 
 
[ Returns ]
 
>> QID=<int>        - Queue ID
>> CODE=<int>      - Command return status CODE if failed.
>> MSG=<str>        - Command return message.
 
 
[ Example ]
 
>> GO|QID=1
<< GO|QID=1|CODE=0|MSG=Queue processing started.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
** QC
 
This is a receive-only command, sent by the FXP.One engine when there
is a Queue-Change. It is only sent if the client requested to
SUBSCRIBE to a queue, either using the "GO" command, or the "QGET"
(Not yet implemented).
 
 
[ Minimal Required Fields]
 
 
 
[ Optional Arguments ]
 
 
 
[ Returns ]
 
>> MOVE            - Item has moved to a new position. Comes with
                      FROM= and TO= keys.
>> REMOVE          - Remove items from queue. All items with higher
                      position are decremented by one. Uses @.
>> INSERT          - New item inserted into queue. Uses @, SRCPATH,
  DSTPATH, QTYPE, SRCSIZE.
>> EMPTY            - Empty queue, processing stops.
 
 
[ Example ]
 
<< QC|QID=1|REMOVE|@=0
<< QC|QID=1|MOVE|FROM=0|TO=18
<< QC|QID=1|INSERT|@=0|SRCPATH=/testfile.dat|DSTPATH=/tmp/testing.bin|QTYPE=FILE|SRCSIZE=29734
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
** QS
 
This is a receive-only command, sent by the FXP.One engine when there
is Queue-Status information to relay. Client can safely ignore this
command as it does not reflect on any queue changes. It is merely
meant as a way for clients to be able to track progress of a queue
being processed. It is only sent if the client requested to
SUBSCRIBE to a queue, either using the "GO" command, or the "QGET"
(Not yet implemented).
All QS messages are related to the item at the top of the queue. So
"@=0" is implied.
 
 
[ Minimal Required Fields]
 
 
 
[ Optional Arguments ]
 
 
 
[ Returns ]
 
>> START            - Started processing the item at the top of queue.
    SRCNAME=<str> - Included for human readability.
>> SRCCWD=<str>    - Changed to new directory on source
>> DSTCWD=<str>    - Changed to new directory on destination
>> MKD=<str>        - Created new directory on destination
>> XFRACT          - File transfer has started (received 150)
    SECURE=<yes/no>- Was Secure Data negotiations successful.
    REST=<int>    - Are we resuming this file
    SIZE=<int>    - Final source size (from SIZE command)
>> XFREND          - File transfer finished (successfully, 226).
    TIME=<int>    - Duration of transfer [1]
    KB/s=<int>    - Estimated speed of transfer [1]
>> FAILED          - Attempted transfer failed
    SERR=<str>    - Error reasons (source failed)
    DERR=<str>    - Error reasons (destination failed)
    COUNT=<int>    - This failure count.
 
[1] Please be aware that we can only measure the time difference
between the 150 FTP message, and the 226 FTP message as received by
FXP.One. This may not reflect the actual time taken for the transfer,
subsequently the KB/s computation is based on said time, and will most
likely only be an estimate. The shorter the duration of a file
transfer is, the more inaccurate the speed computation will be.

Revision as of 05:18, 28 February 2006

Documentation for FXP.One API commands and protocol. This documentation file is maintained at http://www.lundman.net/wiki/index.php?title=Protocol and exported to other formats. This documentation is purposly maintained rigorously as to aid all client developers of FXP.One.


Connecting

WELCOME

When you connect to the FXP.One server, you should receive a greeting string, similar to:

>> WELCOME|name=FXP.Oned|version=0.1|build=18|SSL=optional

Pay special attention to the SSL flag here, since if it is enforced, and you attempt plain text authentication (which will fail) you are exposing the user and password.

The "version" is the server version and build The "protocol" is the protocol version, which you can check to be of the same Major type as your application knows.

The "SSL" field can be "disabled", "optional", and "forced".


SSL

Initiate SSL challenge. This is sent by clients requesting the remainder of the session to be in SSL. This requires that FXP.One engine's WELCOME message is either "forced" or "optional".


[ Minimal Required Fields]
[ Optional Arguments ]
[ Returns ]

>> CODE=<int>       - Command return status CODE.
>> OK               - Initiation request accepted, start SSL phase.
>> MSG              - Human-readable message string
[ Example ]

<< SSL   
>> SSL|CODE=0|Msg=Attempting SSL negotiations.


AUTH

Send USER and PASS for authentication. This requires a valid user and password pair already registered on FXP.One. If FXP.One was started with no user database files, it will create one with the account user "admin" and password "admin".


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> USER=<str>       - USER name
>> PASS=<str>       - PASSWORD
[ Optional Arguments ]
[ Returns ]

>> CODE=<int>       - Failure code.
>> MSG=<str>        - Human readable string message.
[ Example ]

<< AUTH|USER=admin|PASS=admin
>> AUTH|CODE=0|MSG=Successful

>> AUTH|CODE=502|MSG=Login incorrect

>> AUTH|CODE=503|MSG=Secure channel enforced.


SITES

The site structure. Protocol version 0.1 defines 23 entries for a site, plus any number of client defined key/pairs. The latter are not parsed by FXP.One, but stored for the ease of the client programmers. The clients can then chose to be completely stateless and only store information needed in FXP.One.

Please be aware that SITELIST, SITEADD and SITEMOD commands will only show (set) values that are NOT the default value. That means, if a site has "passive" set to "AUTO" it will not be included in the SITELIST reply. It is the responsibility of the client to also initialise the "passive" variable to "AUTO".

The site structure is defined as:

char *name; char *host; unsigned int port; // Default: 21 unsigned long iface; unsigned int iport; // Default: 0 char *user; char *pass; yesnoauto_t passive; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t fxp_passive; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t control_TLS; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t data_TLS; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t desired_type; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t resume; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t resume_last; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t pret; // Default: AUTO char *fskiplist; char *dskiplist; char *fpasslist; char *dpasslist; char *fmovefirst; char *dmovefirst; yesnoauto_t fskipempty; // Default: AUTO yesnoauto_t dskipempty; // Default: AUTO




    • SITEADD

Add a new site to the system.


[ Minimal required fields ]

>> NAME=<str> - Name of site. Not used by engine, need not be unique. >> HOST=<str> - Hostname of remote FTP server >> USER=<str> - User name for authentication on remote FTP server >> PASS=<str> - and password


[ Optional Arguments ]

>> PORT=<int> - Optional PORT of remote FTP server. Default 21. >> PASSIVE=<yna> - Use passive for directory listings? [See YNA type] >> FXP_PASSIVE=yna - Can this remote FTP only take PASV, or PORT? >> CONTROL_TLS=yna - Attempt SSL/TLS on Control channel? >> DATA_TLS=<yna> - Attempt SSL/TLS on Data channel? Site needs CCSN feat >> IFACE=<ip> - Optional IP to bind() to. >> IPORT=<int> - Optional PORT to bind() to. >> DESIRED_TYPE=yna- Binary or Ascii mode transfers. [See YNA type]

                  - AUTO and engine will set Binary for transfers.

>> RESUME=<yna> - Attempt to Resume before Overwrite. >> RESUME_LAST=yna - Re-queue items needed resume last in the queue. >> PRET=<yna> - Send the extended Pre-Transfer command before transfer[1] >> FSKIPLIST=<str> - File skip list [2] >> DSKIPLIST=<str> - Directory skip list [2] >> FPASSLIST=<str> - File pass list [3] >> DPASSLIST=<str> - Directory pass list [3] >> FSKIPEMPTY=<yna>- Skip empty files >> DSKIPEMPTY=<yna>- Skip empty directories >> FMOVEFIRST=<str>- Pattern file matches to force queue at top >> DMOVEFIRST=<str>- Pattern directory matches to force queue at top


[1] AUTO means it will use this feature if it is reported by the remote FTPD in the FEAT/features command reply.

[2] Uses fnmatch(3) syntax pattern matching. Most file globbal you can do on the command line, including "*?[]", but excluding "{}". String consists of slash separated patterns. eg "*.dat/*readme.txt*".

All skiplists, passlists and movefirst are processed on the DESTINATION site.

[3] Opposite to skiplist. The default is for passlist to be empty, which is the equivalent of "*". A syntax like "*ENGLISH*" would ensure only entries which matched string would be queued, and others are dropped. Uses same pattern syntax as skiplist.


[ Extended Optional Arguments ]

As a special feature to the clients connecting to the FXP.One engine, we also allow for storing of own, arbitrary, key/value pairs. As long as the "key" is not the same as any of the above keys, or that of the predefined reserved keys. (eg. "TYPE", "END")

>> <str>=<str> - Store extra client information.

For example:

"...|extrafield=somestuff|OS=Unix"


[ Returns ]

>> SITEID=<int> - Site ID of created site. >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> MSG=<str> - Command return message.


[ Example ]

>> SITEADD|NAME=local|host=localhost|port=56688|user=mp3|pass=mp3|passive=1|fxp_passive=2|control_TLS=2|data_TLS=2|extrafield=somestuff|OS=Unix << SITEADD|CODE=0|SITEID=12|Msg=Added successfully.


[ Caveat ]

It is recommended that all clients that wish to store information in the site database, to prefix their key values with a unique string, perhaps the name of the application. For example:

lundfxp_sitecmd_1=SITE WHO lundfxp_lastlogin=015368281





    • SITELIST

Lists all defined sites.

[ Minimal Required Fields]


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> SITEID=<int> - Site ID being displayed. >> NAME=<str> - Name of site. Not used by engine, need not be unique. >> HOST=<str> - Hostname of remote FTP server >> USER=<str> - User name for authentication on remote FTP server >> PASS=<str> - and password >> PORT=<int> - Optional PORT of remote FTP server. [1] >> PASSIVE=<yna> - Use passive for directory listings? [See YNA type] >> FXP_PASSIVE=yna - Can this remote FTP only take PASV, or PORT? >> CONTROL_TLS=yna - Attempt SSL/TLS on Control channel? >> DATA_TLS=<yna> - Attempt SSL/TLS on Data channel? Site needs CCSN feat >> IFACE=<ip> - Optional IP to bind() to. [1] >> IPORT=<int> - Optional PORT to bind() to. [1] >> DESIRED_TYPE=yna- Binary or Ascii mode transfers. [1] >> RESUME=<yna> - Attempt to Resume before Overwrite. [1] >> RESUME_LAST=yna - Re-queue items needed resume last in the queue. [1] >> PRET=<yna> - Send the extended Pre-Transfer command before transfer[1] >> FSKIPLIST=<str> - File skip list [1] >> DSKIPLIST=<str> - Directory skip list [1] >> FPASSLIST=<str> - File pass list [1] >> DPASSLIST=<str> - Directory pass list [1] >> FSKIPEMPTY=<yna>- Skip empty files [1] >> DSKIPEMPTY=<yna>- Skip empty directories [1] >> FMOVEFIRST=<str>- Pattern file matches to force queue at top [1] >> DMOVEFIRST=<str>- Pattern directory matches to force queue at top [1] >> BEGIN - First item sent, start of list. >> END - Final item was sent, end of list.

[1] This information is only sent if the current value differs from the default "AUTO" type. Or, in the case of strings, where the string is defined (not-empty).

<< SITELIST|BEGIN >> SITELIST|SITEID=1|NAME=localhost|HOST=127.0.0.1|PORT=21|USER=mp3|PASS=mp3|PASSIVE=1|FXP_PASSIVE=2|CONTROL_TLS=2|DATA_TLS=2|optional_variable=roger moore >> SITELIST|SITEID=0|NAME=localhost2|HOST=127.0.0.1|PORT=56688|USER=mp3|PASS=mp3|PASSIVE=1|FXP_PASSIVE=2|CONTROL_TLS=2|DATA_TLS=2 >> SITELIST|END







    • SITEMOD

Modify an existing site's key/value pairs. Specify as many items as desired to be changed. Items not specified in the command are left as they are. To delete a key/pair, send the key with an empty value field. For example "key=".


[ Minimal required fields ]

>> SITEID=<int> - Site ID of created site.


[ Optional Arguments ]

>> NAME=<str> - Name of site. Not used by engine, need not be unique. >> HOST=<str> - Hostname of remote FTP server >> USER=<str> - User name for authentication on remote FTP server >> PASS=<str> - and password >> PORT=<int> - Optional PORT of remote FTP server. Default 21. >> IFACE=<ip> - Optional IP to bind() to. >> IPORT=<int> - Optional PORT to bind() to. >> DESIRED_TYPE=yna- Binary or Ascii mode transfers. [See YNA type]

                  - AUTO and engine will set Binary for transfers.

>> RESUME=<yna> - Attempt to Resume before Overwrite. >> RESUME_LAST=yna - Re-queue items needed resume last in the queue. >> PRET=<yna> - Send the extended Pre-Transfer command before transfer[1] >> FSKIPLIST=<str> - File skip list [2] >> DSKIPLIST=<str> - Directory skip list [2] >> FPASSLIST=<str> - File pass list [3] >> DPASSLIST=<str> - Directory pass list [3] >> FSKIPEMPTY=<yna>- Skip empty files >> DSKIPEMPTY=<yna>- Skip empty directories >> FMOVEFIRST=<str>- Pattern file matches to force queue at top >> DMOVEFIRST=<str>- Pattern directory matches to force queue at top


[1] AUTO means it will use this feature if it is reported by the remote FTPD in the FEAT/features command reply.

[2] Uses fnmatch(3) syntax pattern matching. Most file globbal you can do on the command line, including "*?[]", but excluding "{}". String consists of slash separated patterns. eg "*.dat/*readme.txt*".

[3] Opposite to skiplist. The default is for passlist to be empty, which is the equivalent of "*". A syntax like "*ENGLISH*" would ensure only entries which matched string would be queued, and others are dropped. Uses same pattern syntax as skiplist.


[ Extended Optional Arguments ]

As a special feature to the clients connecting to the FXP.One engine, we also allow for storing of own, arbitrary, key/value pairs. As long as the "key" is not the same as any of the above keys, or that of the predefined reserved keys. (eg. "TYPE", "END")

>> <str>=<str> - Store extra client information.

For example:

"...|extrafield=somestuff|OS=Unix"


[ Returns ]

>> SITEID=<int> - Site ID of created site. >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> MSG=<str> - Command return message.


[ Example ]

>> SITEMOD|SITEID=1|fskiplist=*ENGLISH*,*COMPLETE*|fskipempty=YES << SITEMOD|CODE=0|SITEID=1|Msg=Modified successfully.


[ Caveat ]

It is recommended that all clients that wish to store information in the site database, to prefix their key values with a unique string, perhaps the name of the application. For example:

lundfxp_sitecmd_1=SITE WHO lundfxp_lastlogin=015368281






    • SITEDEL

Delete an existing site.


[ Minimal required fields ]

>> SITEID=<int> - Site ID of created site.


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Extended Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> SITEID=<int> - Site ID of created site. >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> MSG=<str> - Command return message.


[ Example ]

>> SITEDEL|SITEID=12 << SITEDEL|CODE=0|MSG=Site deleted.


[ Caveat ]

Sites aren't actually deleted, just not saved to disk. This means active sessions using said siteid created before the SITEDEL command was issued will continue to work.

A session refer to a site connection. The API will ask for a new session to a specific site (specified with SITEID) and a session will be created. If the connection is lost or closed, _the session is closed_. The API will have to request a new session if so desired.


    • SESSIONNEW

Request a new session to site, returning a SID to session.

[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> SITEID=<int> - Which remote server to connect to, from SITELIST.

[ Optional Arguments ]

>> LOG - Normal login is silent. With LOG the API received

                    all verbose messages.

[ Returns ]

>> SID=<int> - Value of the new SID for all future commands with

                    sessions

>> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> MSG=<str> - Command return message.


[ Example ]

>> sessionnew|siteid=0 << SESSIONNEW|SITEID=0|SID=1 << IDLE|SID=1




    • SESSIONFREE

Release a session, and disconnect from remote host.


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> SID=<int> - SID of the session to close.

[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> SID=<int> - SID of the session closed. >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> MSG=<str> - Command return message.


[ Example ]

>> SESSIONFREE|SID=1 << SESSIONFREE|CODE=0|SID=1|MSG=Success




    • ASYNC


<< CONNECT|SID=1

Send once a session has successfully logged in and is ready to answer queries. Initially it was thought that IDLE would be enough, but clients will generally want to auto-trigger some commands upon connection establish, so we provide this event.


<< IDLE|SID=1

Site is idle, ready for more commands. Informative only as you can always issue commands, they will be queued.


<< DISCONNECT|SID=1|CODE=429|MSG=Undefined error: 0

The session was disconnected. Any further references to the SID (in this case "1") will result in an error.


<< LOG|SID=1|MSG=

You can request a SESSIONNEW to be logged (LOG), or, most of the commands take an option "LOG" to specify that logging is desired during the execution of said command. This means the engine will forward all messages from the remote FTPD to the client. For example:

>> CWD|SID=2|path=/requests << CWD|SID=2|CODE=0|MSG=250 CWD command successful.

>> CWD|SID=2|path=requests|LOG << CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250-REQUESTS ADMIN: roger << CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250- << CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250-RULES: Please use format of REQ- and FILLED- << CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250- and please do not dump single files into << CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250- root as it just make the folder look untidy! << CWD|SID=2|CODE=-1|MSG=250-Available space: 14676.22 MB. << CWD|SID=2|CODE=0|MSG=250 CWD command successful.

[1] Warning. It is not recommended that you use this to supply different paths as the internal cache engine will get mighty confused. [2] Some "ls"/LIST options will break the internal parser. For example, "-1" would remove the long listing style.


[ Returns ]

>> SID=<int> - SID the dirlist reply is from. >> FID=<int> - File ID of this item. For QADD. >> NAME=<str> - Name of Directory OR File >> DATE=

    • QUEUENEW

Create a new QUEUE by associating two SIDs with it. These are currently named NORTH and SOUTH as a means to refer to either one uniquely without implying direction of transfer. (source and destination does not work)


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> NORTH_SID=<int> - SID of the session, out of two. >> SOUTH_SID=<int> - SID of the session, out of two.


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID for queue operations.


[ Example ]

>> queuenew|north_sid=1|south_sid=2 << QUEUENEW|CODE=0|QID=1|MSG=Queue created.





    • QADD

Add a new items to a specified queue. This is quite a versatile command which looks to take many arguments. As a command it has four parts to it. Except for special QTYPE values, see below.

1) The source information. The easiest way here is to use the FID

  option, if you have previously done a DIRLIST command. This will
  take the required source information from the directory cache.
  If FID is not used, or you wish to override information from the
  FID, you can specify the source information manually. The name of
  the item can either be specified by SRCDIR+SRCNAME OR SRCPATH.
  (SRCPATH = SRCDIR/SRCNAME).
  The extra SRC options, like SRCSIZE, and SRCREST are optional. Both
  are used for Resume purposes, as well as finally CPS calculations.

2) The destination information. This is copied from the

  source. However, you can optionally override any of this. For
  example specifying a different DSTNAME would transfer and rename
  the file at the same time. The PATH is made up the same way as
  source, specify one of the two in:
  (DSTPATH = DSTDIR/DSTNAME)

3) Queue position. This can be omitted for default queue

  positioning. However if the specific position is desired, you can
  use @=<int|FIRST|LAST> to specify Nth position, FIRST position or
  LAST position in the queue.

4) Optional modifiers. The default behaviour of a SITE is to always

  RESUME unless specified otherwise using the "resume" option to the
  site definition. The default for a queue item is also to
  resume. You can override this default for THIS queue item by
  specifying "OVERWRITE" or "RESUME". The latter is useful if the
  site's default has been changed to OVERWRITE. You can also specify
  QTYPE for this addition, either due to manual queuing, or to
  override the FID type. If you get it wrong, the queue processing
  will also get it wrong.


Alternatively, you can use QTYPE to set non transfer type items. At this time, there is only type "STOP". If you issue QTYPE=STOP there is no need to send information for 1), 2) or 4). Part 3) is optional. There is currently a bug where you have to specify SRC= field with the STOP item. It makes no difference as to which SRC you pick.


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> SRC=<str> - Specify which SID is the source. Either "NORTH"

                     or "SOUTH".

EITHER: >> FID=<int> - File ID to use as source OR: >> SRCPATH=<str> - Full path of the source file OR: >> SRCNAME=<str> - Name of source file. >> SRCDIR=<str> - Directory path containing source file. OR: >> QTYPE=STOP - Insert a soft stop item


[ Optional Arguments ]

>> SRCNAME=<str> - Name of source file >> SRCDIR=<str> - Directory path containing source file >> SRCPATH=<str> - Full path, ie, SRCDIR/SRCNAME in one. >> SRCSIZE=<int> - Size of the queue item. >> SRCREST=<int> - Restart point of queue item (files only). >> DSTNAME=<str> - Name of destination file, OR obtained from source >> DSTDIR=<str> - Directory path containing destination file, OR

                     obtained from source

>> DSTPATH=<str> - Full path, ie, DSTDIR/DSTNAME in one. OR

                     obtained from source.

>> DSTSIZE=<int> - Size of the queue item. >> DSTREST=<int> - Restart point of queue item (files only). >> QTYPE=<str> - Type of queue item. Either "directory",

                     "file" or "stop". [1]

>> RESUME - Resume file if possible. >> OVERWRITE - Do not resume, overwrite destination >> @=<int|str> - Queue position, int or FIRST/LAST strings.

[1] More types will come. The default type is "file".


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> ITEMS=<int> - Number of items in the queue >> MSG=<str> - Command return message. >> @=<int> - Position in the queue item was inserted.


[ Example ]

>> qadd|qid=1|src=north|fid=2 << QADD|CODE=0|QID=1|ITEMS=1|@=0|Msg=Added successfully.

>> QADD|QID=123|SRC=SOUTH|SRCPATH=/archive/thesis/bilingual.pdf|DSTPATH=/old/ducoments/obsolete.pdf|SRCSIZE=43523|OVERWRITE|QTYPE=file << QADD|CODE=0|QID=123|ITEMS=906|@=55|Msg=Added successfully.


What is the default queue position when QADD is called, or during file transfers? When the API queues items, they will always be placed LAST unless otherwise specified.

As a default, files are added after all the (top) files, but before the first directory. Directories are added after all files, but before the first directory. (yes, it's the same). Which the exception of if the name matches "fmovefirst" or "dmovefirst", then it is inserted with "FIRST" position.

This means, when it is expanding a directory, the queue ends up like:

FIRST

   files that match fmovefirst
   all other files
   directories.

LAST

    • QERR

Get the contents of a specific error queue, all its queue items.


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> QTYPE=<str> - Item type, directory/file. >> SRC=<NORTH|SOUTH>- This item's source site is North or South. >> SRCPATH=<str> - Full path of source >> DSTPATH=<str> - Full path of destination >> SERR_<int>=<str> - Source errors, incrementing, and the reason string >> DERR_<int>=<str> - Destination errors, incrementing, and the reason string >> BEGIN - First item sent, start of list. >> END - Final item was sent, end of list.


[ Example ]

>> QERR|QID=1|BEGIN|ITEMS=1 << QERR|QID=1|QTYPE=FILE|SRC=NORTH|SRCPATH=/Giana_Sisters_GBA//gfx_blocks.txt|DSTPATH=/tmp/tmp//gfx_blocks.txt|DERR_0=553 gfx_blocks.txt: Can't open for writing << QERR|QID=1|END



    • QDEL

Delete an item in the queue. If a client wishes to delete multiple items, it is advised that the client pre-sorts the items list, and send it with highest queue position first, in descending order. It is an error to attempt to delete queue item at first position (@=0) if the queue is active.

Please be aware that since deleting a queue item early in the list, will affect queue items in a later position. That is to say, if you intend to delete items 1,4,8 from the queue, and you issue 3 QDEL commands "blindly" in the same order (1,4,8), the net effect will be that queue items 1,5,10 are actually deleted. When queue item 1 is deleted, item at position 4 is now 3, and item 5 is at position 4.

Either the clients need to be aware of the re-numbering and compensate for later commands, OR, much easier is to sort the list in descending order before issuing the QDEL commands. Ie, send QDEL commands in the order 8,4,1.


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> @=<int> - Queue position of item to delete.


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> ITEMS=<int> - Number of items in the queue >> MSG=<str> - Command return message. >> @=<int> - Position in the queue of item.


[ Example ]

>> qdel|qid=1|@=53 << QDEL|QID=1|CODE=0|@=53|ITEMS=0




    • QMOVE

[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> FROM=<int> - Queue position of item to move >> TO=<str|int> - New position, either <int> Nth place, or string

                     placement like in QADD. ("FIRST"/"LAST")

    • QGRAB

QGRAB lets a client take control of an idle queue, and the queue's sessions, if any. This is currently the only way to gain access to sessions given away with the "GO" command. If the queue had any connected sessions, the client should receive appropriate CONNECT messages.


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue id in question


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue id >> ITEMS=<int> - Current number of items in queue >> NORTH_SID=<int> - Session ID of North site, if connected. >> SOUTH_SID=<int> - Session ID of South site, if connected. >> NORTH_SITEID=int - Site ID of North site, for future SESSIONNEW >> SOUTH_SITEID=int - Site ID of South site, for future SESSIONNEW >> NORTH_NAME=<str> - Site name of North site >> SOUTH_NAME=<str> - Site name of South site >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE.

    • QCOMPARE

Compare the two directories in the session cache against each other, sending back list of FIDs that would be queued by FXP.One. This gives GUIs an easy way to show which items would be queued, and processed in a given set of directories. The compare function uses all the logic, including skiplists, passlists, movefirst and skipempty. It compares file sizes to ignore those of the same size, but highlights the side with the smaller size should they differ.


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> NORTH_FID=<int,> - Comma separated list of FIDs for the NORTH site. >> SOUTH_FID=<int,> - Comma separated list of FIDs for the NORTH site. >> BEGIN - First item sent, start of list. >> END - Final item was sent, end of list.


[ Example ]

>> qcompare|qid=1 << QCOMPARE|QID=1|BEGIN << QCOMPARE|QID=1|NORTH_FID=1,3,4,5,6,7,8,10,13,15,16,17,18,19,21,22,23,24,25,26,28,29,31,33,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,99,100,101,102,103,104,105,107,108,109,110,111,112,113,115,116,117,118 << QCOMPARE|QID=1|NORTH_FID=119,120,121,122,123,124,125,126,127,128,129,130,132,133,134,135,136,137,138,139,140,141,142,144,145,146,147,148,149 << QCOMPARE|QID=1|SOUTH_FID=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,77,78,79,80,81,82,84,85,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,95,96,97,98,99,100,101,102,104,105,106,107,109 << QCOMPARE|QID=1|SOUTH_FID=110,113,114,115 << QCOMPARE|QID=1|END|MSG=Completed comparison.





    • QUEUEFREE

[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE. >> MSG=<str> - Command return message.


[ Example ]

>> QUEUEFREE|QID=1 << QUEUEFREE|CODE=0|QID=1|Msg=Queue released.








    • GO

Issue "GO" to a queue. Request FXP.One engine to start processing the queue and its items. The client loses ownership of the two SIDS at the issue of the "GO" command. You may no longer issue commands directory to the SIDs. Once a queue is idle, either from the QC|EMPTY message, or after issuing the STOP command, the client can issue the "QGRAB" command to receive controls of the SIDs, if still existing.


[ Minimal Required Fields]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID


[ Optional Arguments ]

>> SUBSCRIBE - Subscribe to queue status (QS) and queue changes (QC)


[ Returns ]

>> QID=<int> - Queue ID >> CODE=<int> - Command return status CODE if failed. >> MSG=<str> - Command return message.


[ Example ]

>> GO|QID=1 << GO|QID=1|CODE=0|MSG=Queue processing started.






    • QC

This is a receive-only command, sent by the FXP.One engine when there is a Queue-Change. It is only sent if the client requested to SUBSCRIBE to a queue, either using the "GO" command, or the "QGET" (Not yet implemented).


[ Minimal Required Fields]


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> MOVE - Item has moved to a new position. Comes with

                     FROM= and TO= keys. 

>> REMOVE - Remove items from queue. All items with higher

                     position are decremented by one. Uses @.

>> INSERT - New item inserted into queue. Uses @, SRCPATH, DSTPATH, QTYPE, SRCSIZE. >> EMPTY - Empty queue, processing stops.


[ Example ]

<< QC|QID=1|REMOVE|@=0 << QC|QID=1|MOVE|FROM=0|TO=18 << QC|QID=1|INSERT|@=0|SRCPATH=/testfile.dat|DSTPATH=/tmp/testing.bin|QTYPE=FILE|SRCSIZE=29734





    • QS

This is a receive-only command, sent by the FXP.One engine when there is Queue-Status information to relay. Client can safely ignore this command as it does not reflect on any queue changes. It is merely meant as a way for clients to be able to track progress of a queue being processed. It is only sent if the client requested to SUBSCRIBE to a queue, either using the "GO" command, or the "QGET" (Not yet implemented). All QS messages are related to the item at the top of the queue. So "@=0" is implied.


[ Minimal Required Fields]


[ Optional Arguments ]


[ Returns ]

>> START - Started processing the item at the top of queue.

    SRCNAME=<str>  - Included for human readability.

>> SRCCWD=<str> - Changed to new directory on source >> DSTCWD=<str> - Changed to new directory on destination >> MKD=<str> - Created new directory on destination >> XFRACT - File transfer has started (received 150)

    SECURE=<yes/no>- Was Secure Data negotiations successful.
    REST=<int>     - Are we resuming this file
    SIZE=<int>     - Final source size (from SIZE command)

>> XFREND - File transfer finished (successfully, 226).

    TIME=<int>     - Duration of transfer [1]
    KB/s=<int>     - Estimated speed of transfer [1]

>> FAILED - Attempted transfer failed

    SERR=<str>     - Error reasons (source failed)
    DERR=<str>     - Error reasons (destination failed)
    COUNT=<int>    - This failure count.

[1] Please be aware that we can only measure the time difference between the 150 FTP message, and the 226 FTP message as received by FXP.One. This may not reflect the actual time taken for the transfer, subsequently the KB/s computation is based on said time, and will most likely only be an estimate. The shorter the duration of a file transfer is, the more inaccurate the speed computation will be.
