How can I combine my FTP queries? [migrated]
- by ryansworld10
My program has several times where it queries an FTP server to read and upload information. How can I combine all these into one FTP class to handle everything?
private static void UploadToFTP(string[] FTPSettings)
{
try
{
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(FTPSettings[0]);
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.MakeDirectory;
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(FTPSettings[1], FTPSettings[2]);
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
}
catch
{
}
try
{
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(FTPSettings[0] + Path.GetFileName(file));
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(FTPSettings[1], FTPSettings[2]);
StreamReader source = new StreamReader(file);
byte[] fileContents = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(source.ReadToEnd());
source.Close();
request.ContentLength = fileContents.Length;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(fileContents, 0, fileContents.Length);
requestStream.Close();
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
response.Close();
RegenLog();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
File.AppendAllText(file, string.Format("{0}{0}Upload Failed - ({2}) - {1}{0}", nl, System.DateTime.Now, e.Message.ToString()));
}
}
private static void CheckBlacklist(string[] FTPSettings)
{
try
{
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(FTPSettings[0] + "blacklist.txt");
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(FTPSettings[1], FTPSettings[2]);
using (WebResponse response = request.GetResponse())
{
using (Stream stream = response.GetResponseStream())
{
using (TextReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
string blacklist = reader.ReadToEnd();
if (blacklist.Contains(Environment.UserName))
{
File.AppendAllText(file, string.Format("{0}{0}Logger terminated - ({2}) - {1}{0}", nl, System.DateTime.Now, "Blacklisted"));
uninstall = true;
}
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
File.AppendAllText(file, string.Format("{0}{0}FTP Error - ({2}) - {1}{0}", nl, System.DateTime.Now, e.Message.ToString()));
}
}
private static void CheckUpdate(string[] FTPSettings)
{
try
{
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(FTPSettings[0] + "update.txt");
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(FTPSettings[1], FTPSettings[2]);
using (WebResponse response = request.GetResponse())
{
using (Stream stream = response.GetResponseStream())
{
using (TextReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
string newVersion = reader.ReadToEnd();
if (newVersion != version)
{
update = true;
}
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
File.AppendAllText(file, string.Format("{0}{0}FTP Error - ({2}) - {1}{0}", nl, System.DateTime.Now, e.Message.ToString()));
}
}
I know my code is also a bit inconsistent and messy, however this is my first time working with FTP in C#. Please give any advice you have!
