So I have this FTP server with a bunch of folders and files inside.
My program needs to access this server, read all of the files, and display their data.
For de
if you use URI with file you can use your code but , but when you want to use ftp so you need to this kind of code; code list the name of the files under your ftp server
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class URLConnectionReader {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
URL url = new URL("ftp://username:password@www.superland.example/server");
URLConnection con = url.openConnection();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
con.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println(inputLine);
in.close();
}
}
EDITED Demo Code Belongs to Codejava
package net.codejava.ftp;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
public class FtpUrlListing {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String ftpUrl = "ftp://%s:%s@%s/%s;type=d";
String host = "www.myserver.com";
String user = "tom";
String pass = "secret";
String dirPath = "/projects/java";
ftpUrl = String.format(ftpUrl, user, pass, host, dirPath);
System.out.println("URL: " + ftpUrl);
try {
URL url = new URL(ftpUrl);
URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
InputStream inputStream = conn.getInputStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream));
String line = null;
System.out.println("--- START ---");
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
System.out.println("--- END ---");
inputStream.close();
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
