syncftp — minimal README

A minimal FTP sync script used for quick static site deployments and single-file fixes.

Core features

• Full sync (uploads local files, removes remote orphans)
• upload-file (upload a single file; does not remove orphans)
• download (download configured files)
• Simple VS Code task integration (optional)

Quick commands

cp .env.example .env
edit .env
python3 syncftp.py upload    # full sync
python3 syncftp.py sync      # alias for upload
python3 syncftp.py download
python3 syncftp.py upload-file <relative_path> [--strip-prefix <prefix>]

Notes

• upload-file is intended for fast fixes; run sync afterwards to ensure consistency.
• .env contains credentials; do not commit real secrets.
