Обсуждение: FTP client functions?
I've dont only cursory research on this so far, so thought I'd ask here first...
Does anyone know of any ftp client capabilities in Postgresql, any prebuilt functions or extensions already built?
Or is it a roll-your-own kind of thing?
Thanks, Lou

Easiest way would be to install a pl/language that has something like curl available to it. Then it's just simple file access from the language perspective.
Thanks, Scott, for that. I've already experimented a little from doing ftp calls from straight from shell - using PL/sh - of course, this is sub-optimal(!), but was good for an experiment.

Having trouble so far getting PL/php built on v9, too...
OK, we'll keep at it!

Joe, thanks for that suggestion. I'll try it. I'd imagined any internal function would have to wrestle with encapsulating the communications - async? delays? - within a function process. Probably not too easy.
