unftp-sbe-webdav

A storage back-end for libunftp that transparently forwards requests to a WebDAV back-end. If you have a client that only speaks FTP, but a server that only speaks WebDAV, you can use this library to bridge that gap.

Warning: This is an extremely basic implementation. Be careful where you use it.

Features:

• Implements most basic FTP commands.
• Authenticates to WebDAV server using the client's FTP credentials.

Limitations:

• No support for chunked uploads. WebDAV doesn't support that, although Nextcloud & ownCloud do.
• Only tested with Nextcloud back-end.

How to use

• Set environment variable WEBDEV_SERVER to URL of WebDAV endpoint, for example https://example.com/dav/files. The username is automatically appended to the URL! As I mentioned above, only tested on Nextcloud right now.
• Create a server like is shown in examples/webdav_ftp_server.rs.
• Connect using any FTP client, for example curl -u username:password ftp://127.0.0.1:2121/ to list files.
