Using ftplib for multithread uploads
- by Arty
I'm trying to do multithread uploads, but get errors.
I guessed that maybe it's impossible to use multithreads with ftplib?
Here comes my code:
class myThread (threading.Thread):
def __init__(self, threadID, src, counter, image_name):
self.threadID = threadID
self.src = src
self.counter = counter
self.image_name = image_name
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
def run(self):
uploadFile(self.src, self.image_name)
def uploadFile(src, image_name):
f = open(src, "rb")
ftp.storbinary('STOR ' + image_name, f)
f.close()
ftp = FTP('host') # connect to host, default port
ftp.login() # user anonymous, passwd anonymous@
dirname = "/home/folder/"
i = 1
threads = []
for image in os.listdir(dirname):
if os.path.isfile(dirname + image):
thread = myThread(i , dirname + image, i, image )
thread.start()
threads.append( thread )
i += 1
for t in threads:
t.join()
Get bunch of ftplib errors like
raise error_reply, resp
error_reply: 200 Type set to I
If I try to upload one by one, everything works fine
