Hi, I'm just wondering if there is any way to get the number of bytes,
or the percentage, that have been uploaded/downloaded when
uploading/downloading a file throught ftp in Python. I have searched
Google many times but could find nothing.
If you're using urllib you can do something like this:
def reporter(block, block_size, total_size):
left = total_size - block * block_size
sys.stderr.write('\r')
sys.stderr.write('Downloading %s: ' % file_name)
if left > 0: # the estimate is a bit rough, so we fake it a little
sys.stderr.write('%sK left.' % (left/1024))
else:
sys.stderr.write('done.')
# it's possible that this line is shorter than the previous,
# so we need to "erase" any leftovers
sys.stderr.write(' '*10)
sys.stderr.write('\b'*10)
import urllib
urllib.urlretrieve(url, destination, reporter)
sys.stderr.write('\n')
