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 '-'. To make commands be sent after curl
|
|
|
|
|
has changed the working directory, just before the transfer command(s), prefix
|
|
|
|
|
the command with a '+' (this is only supported for FTP). You may specify any
|
|
|
|
|
number of commands.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the server returns failure for one of the commands, the entire operation
|
|
|
|
|
will be 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.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
Prefix the command with an asterisk (*) to make curl continue even if the
|
|
|
|
|
command fails as by default curl will stop at first failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This option can be used multiple times.

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:
|
|
|
