goftp is an FTP client library for Go providing dialing, login, file upload (Stor), and download (Retr) over the FTP protocol. It is a small, well-tested package for embedding FTP file transfer into Go applications.
Use cases
- upload files to an ftp server from go
- download files over ftp in a go program
- connect to an ftp server with a go library
- transfer files programmatically via ftp
- script ftp file transfers in go
When to choose
- you need FTP support in a Go application
- you want a lightweight, dependency-light FTP client library
- you need simple upload/download operations against FTP servers
When to avoid
- you need SFTP or FTPS with advanced features not supported by the library
- you are not working in Go
- you need a GUI or command-line FTP client rather than a library
