POWERSHELL FTP

Upload multiple files to ftp with Powershell in background. Download multiple files from ftp with Powershell in background.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

1. UPLOAD SIDE The script checks every second, for "jpg" images in a "medias" directory on your hard drive. When an image is found, it is automatically sent to the remote ftp directory you specify.

2. DOWNLOAD SIDE The script checks every minute, inside the ftp directory, and download new files.

Security options

1. UPLOAD SIDE If upload is complete, the image is saved in a "save" directory on your hard drive, then, deleted from the "medias" directory. If upload is not complete, images still in "medias" directory and the script tries again indefinitely. For big size images, we wait 2 seconds after an image has been created in the "medias" folder, to send it through ftp.

2. DOWLOAD SIDE Downloads only files that doesn't exist inside the directory.
