From a410507846b81522cec0adea0a6b33e1474961a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Barrett Ruth <62671086+barrettruth@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2026 23:47:20 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] feat(ftp): add FTP/FTPS adapter via curl (#167) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * feat(ftp): add FTP/FTPS adapter via curl Problem: canola has no way to browse or edit files on FTP servers, despite the adapter system being designed for exactly this pattern. curl speaks FTP natively, including FTPS (FTP over TLS), and requires no new dependencies. Solution: implement `lua/oil/adapters/ftp.lua` with `oil-ftp://` and `oil-ftps://` schemes. Parses Unix and IIS LIST output, supports `size`, `mtime`, and `permissions` columns, and implements the full adapter API (list, read_file, write_file, render_action, perform_action). Same-host renames use RNFR/RNTO; cross-host and local↔FTP copies use curl download/upload through a tmpfile. Adds `extra_curl_args` config option and documents the adapter in `doc/oil.txt`. Based on: stevearc/oil.nvim#210 * docs(upstream): mark #210 fixed in #167 * fix(ftp): use python3 ftplib for control-channel FTP operations Problem: DELE, RMD, MKD, and RNFR/RNTO were implemented using curl --quote, which requires a subsequent LIST or STOR to trigger the FTP connection. That data-channel operation hangs on slow or busy servers, making every mutation appear stuck. Solution: replace the curl --quote approach with a python3 ftplib one-liner for all control-channel operations. ftplib executes DELE, RMD, MKD, RNFR/RNTO, and SITE CHMOD without opening a data channel, so they complete instantly. The curl wrapper is retained for LIST, read_file, and write_file, which genuinely need a data channel. * fix(ftp): use nil entry ID so cache assigns unique IDs Problem: `M.list` returned entries as `{0, name, type, meta}`. `cache.store_entry` only assigns a fresh ID when `entry[FIELD_ID] == nil`; passing 0 caused every entry to be stored as ID 0, all overwriting each other. `get_entry_by_id(0)` then always returned the last-stored entry, breaking navigation (always opened the same file), rename (wrong entry matched), and create (wrong diff). Solution: change the placeholder from 0 to nil, matching how `cache.create_entry` itself builds entries. * fix(ftp): use ftp.rename() for RNFR/RNTO and raw Python lines in ftpcmd Problem: `ftpcmd` wrapped every command in `ftp.voidcmd()`, which expects a final 2xx response. `RNFR` returns 350 (intermediate), so `voidcmd` raised an exception before `RNTO` was ever sent, causing every rename to fail with '350 Ready for destination name'. Solution: change `ftpcmd` to accept raw Python lines instead of FTP command strings, then use `ftp.rename(src, dst)` for the rename case. `ftplib.rename` handles the 350 intermediate response correctly internally. All other callers now wrap their FTP commands in `ftp.voidcmd()` explicitly. * fix(ftp): recursively delete directory contents before RMD Problem: FTP's RMD command fails with '550 Directory not empty' if the directory has any contents. Unlike the S3 adapter which uses `aws s3 rm --recursive`, FTP has no protocol-level recursive delete. Solution: emit a Python rmtree helper inside the ftpcmd script that walks the directory via MLSD, recursively deletes children (DELE for files, rmtree for subdirs), then sends RMD on the now-empty directory. * fix(ftp): give oil-ftps:// its own adapter name to prevent scheme clobbering Problem: both oil-ftp:// and oil-ftps:// mapped to the adapter name 'ftp', so config.adapter_to_scheme['ftp'] was set to whichever scheme pairs() iterated last — non-deterministic. init.lua uses adapter_to_scheme[adapter.name] to reconstruct the parent URL, so roughly half the time it injected 'oil-ftps://' into ftp:// buffer navigation, causing the ssl-reqd error on '-' press. Solution: register oil-ftps:// under adapter name 'ftps' via a one-line shim that returns require('oil.adapters.ftp'). Now adapter_to_scheme['ftp'] = 'oil-ftp://' and adapter_to_scheme['ftps'] = 'oil-ftps://' are both stable. * fix(ftp): percent-encode path in curl FTP URLs Problem: filenames containing spaces (or other URL-unsafe characters) caused curl to fail with "Unknown error" because the raw path was concatenated directly into the FTP URL. Solution: add `url_encode_path` to encode non-safe characters (excluding `/`) before building the curl URL in `curl_ftp_url`. * fix(ftp): fix STARTTLS, error visibility, and robustness Problem: `curl_ftp_url` emitted `ftps://` (implicit TLS) for `oil-ftps://` URLs, causing listing to fail against STARTTLS servers while Python mutations worked — the two paths spoke different TLS modes. curl's `-s` flag silenced all error output, producing "Unknown error" on any curl failure. File creation used `/dev/null` (breaks on Windows, diverges from S3). The Python TLS context didn't honour `--insecure`/`-k` from `extra_curl_args`. Deleting non-empty dirs on servers without MLSD gave a cryptic `500 Unknown command`. Solution: Always emit `ftp://` in `curl_ftp_url`; TLS is enforced solely via `--ssl-reqd`, making STARTTLS consistent between curl and Python. Add `-S` to expose curl errors. Replace `/dev/null` with `curl -T -` + `stdin='null'` (matches `s3fs` pattern). Mirror `--insecure`/`-k` into the Python SSL context. Wrap `mlsd()` in try/except with a clear actionable message. Add `spec/ftp_spec.lua` with 28 unit tests covering URL parsing, list parsing, and curl URL building. Update `doc/oil.txt` to document STARTTLS and MLSD. * ci: format * fix(ftp): resolve LuaLS type warnings in `curl` wrapper and `parse_unix_list_line` --- doc/oil.txt | 49 +++ doc/upstream.md | 48 +-- lua/oil/adapters/ftp.lua | 685 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ lua/oil/adapters/ftps.lua | 1 + lua/oil/config.lua | 6 + spec/ftp_spec.lua | 166 +++++++++ 6 files changed, 931 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) create mode 100644 lua/oil/adapters/ftp.lua create mode 100644 lua/oil/adapters/ftps.lua create mode 100644 spec/ftp_spec.lua diff --git a/doc/oil.txt b/doc/oil.txt index 71d8d70..6691db0 100644 --- a/doc/oil.txt +++ b/doc/oil.txt @@ -173,6 +173,8 @@ The full list of options with their defaults: extra_scp_args = {}, -- Extra arguments to pass to aws s3 when creating/deleting/moving/copying files using aws s3 extra_s3_args = {}, + -- Extra arguments to pass to curl for FTP operations + extra_curl_args = {}, -- EXPERIMENTAL support for performing file operations with git git = { -- Return true to automatically git add/mv/rm files @@ -993,6 +995,53 @@ S3 *oil-adapter-s Older versions of Neovim (0.11 and earlier) don't support numbers in the URL scheme, so use `oil-sss` instead of `oil-s3`. +FTP *oil-adapter-ftp* + + Browse files over FTP or FTPS (FTP over TLS).
