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
