I’m new here. I’ve got a question related to PHP, FTP and CURL.

I need to emulate PHP’s stat() with CURL FTP. I already know that it may take more than one command to do it. Here’s what I’ve got so far (PHP/STAT … FTP/CURL):

  • dev
  • ino
  • mode … LIST *
  • nlink
  • uid … LIST *
  • gid … LIST *
  • rdev
  • size … SIZE (or better still, use from LIST)
  • atime
  • mtime … MDTM
  • ctime
  • blksize
  • blocks

*How is FTP LIST used and parsed (preferably on a single file)?
What I need most are the values for atime and ctime, there rest is to be filled for the sake of having full functionality.

My end goal is to have a class for proper FTP access with streamWrapper functionality (so as to bypass allow_url_fopen).

Cheers!

    Thanks to Gordon’s comment above.
    If anything changes (i.e. I find some new stuff in the FTP spec) I’ll update the answer.
