FTP settings

You can index files remotely using FTP.

Here is a list of FTP settings:

Name	Environment Variable	Default value	Documentation
`fs.provider`	`FSCRAWLER_FS_PROVIDER`	`"local"`	Set it to `"ftp"` for FTP crawling
`server.hostname`	`FSCRAWLER_SERVER_HOSTNAME`	`null`	Hostname
`server.port`	`FSCRAWLER_SERVER_PORT`	`21`	Port
`server.username`	`FSCRAWLER_SERVER_USERNAME`	`anonymous`	Username / Password
`server.password`	`FSCRAWLER_SERVER_PASSWORD`	`null`	Username / Password

Deprecated since version 2.10: The server.protocol setting is deprecated. Use fs.provider instead.

Username / Password

Let’s say you want to index from a remote server using FTP:

FS URL: /path/to/data/dir/on/server
Server: mynode.mydomain.com
Username: username (default to anonymous)
Password: password
Provider: ftp
Port: 21 (default to 21)

name: "test"
fs:
  provider: "ftp"
  url: "/path/to/data/dir/on/server"
server:
  hostname: "mynode.mydomain.com"
  port: 21
  username: "username"
  password: "password"
