I'd like to use ftplib to upload program-generated data as lists. The nearest method I can see for doing this is ftp.storlines, but this requires a file object with a readlines() method.

Obviously I could create a file, but this seems like overkill as the data isn't persistent.

Is there anything that could do this?:

session = ftp.new(...)
upload = convertListToFileObject(mylist)
session.storlines("STOR SOMETHING",upload)
session.quit
