Send an arbitrary command to the remote FTP or SFTP server. Quote commands are
|
||
|
sent BEFORE the transfer takes place (just after the initial **PWD** command
|
||
|
in an FTP transfer, to be exact). To make commands take place after a
|
||
|
successful transfer, prefix them with a dash '-'.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(FTP only) To make commands be sent after curl has changed the working
|
||
|
directory, just before the file transfer command(s), prefix the command with a
|
||
|
'+'. This is not performed when a directory listing is performed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You may specify any number of commands.
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default curl stops at first failure. To make curl continue even if the
|
||
|
command fails, prefix the command with an asterisk (*). Otherwise, if the
|
||
|
server returns failure for one of the commands, the entire operation is
|
||
|
aborted.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You must send syntactically correct FTP commands as RFC 959 defines to FTP
|
||
|
servers, or one of the commands listed below to SFTP servers.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SFTP is a binary protocol. Unlike for FTP, curl interprets SFTP quote commands
|
||
|
itself before sending them to the server. File names may be quoted
|
||
|
shell-style to embed spaces or special characters. Following is the list of
|
||
|
all supported SFTP quote commands:
|
||
|
.RS
|
||

|
||
|
**"atime date file"**
|
||
|
The atime command sets the last access time of the file named by the file
|
||
|
operand. The <date expression> can be all sorts of date strings, see the
|
||
|
*curl_getdate(3)* man page for date expression details. (Added in 7.73.0)

||
|
**"chgrp group file"**
|
||

the group ID specified by the group operand. The group operand is a decimal
|
||
|
integer group ID.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
**"chmod mode file"**
|
||
|
The chmod command modifies the file mode bits of the specified file. The

||
|
**"chown user file"**
|

||
|
integer user ID.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
**"ln source_file target_file"**
|
||
|
The ln and symlink commands create a symbolic link at the target_file location
|
||
|
pointing to the source_file location.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
**"mkdir directory_name"**
|

|
||
