js-ftp-library v1.0.4

FTP Library

A lightweight FTP server library for Node.js. Fully compliant with RFC 959, this library is designed to be fast, reliable, and customizable. It is ideal for developers needing an FTP server for development, testing, or lightweight production use.

Features

• Simple API for creating FTP servers.
• Customizable port, host, and root directory settings.
• Built-in authentication and directory listing support.
• Lightweight, fast, and easy to extend.
• Newly Added Commands: CWD, MKD, RMD, STAT, and HELP for enhanced functionality.

    if (command.startsWith('RNFR')) {
      const oldName = command.split(' ')[1];
      socket.once('data', (newData) => {
        const newName = newData.toString().trim().split(' ')[1];
        fs.renameSync(oldName, newName);
