FTP support for Mina

You can use mina now to deploy static websites to FTP servers.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mina-ftp'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install mina-ftp

Use mina to generate the config file:

$ bundle exec mina init

Load the FTP tasks:

require 'mina/ftp'

Add some settings to the config/deploy.rb or to Minafile file.

set :ftp_path, 'public_www'
set :ftp_host, 'ftp.domain.com'
set :ftp_username, 'user@domain.com'
set :ftp_password, 'secret'
set :ftp_from_path, 'public'
set :ftp_options, {:passive => false}

Update deploy task to invoke ftp:deploy task:

task :deploy do
  invoke :'ftp:deploy'
end

Deploy it!

$ bundle exec mina deploy

Use --verbose flag if you want to see FTP client calls.

To clear the remote path, use the ftp:empty task:

$ bundle exec mina ftp:empty

Thats it.

Write some tests.

1. Fork it
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
4. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
5. Create new Pull Request

This gem uses ftp_sync gem.

Huge thanks to mina developers for the awesome tool.
