I am going to review the new ino from Stooged to see about the internal pages he creates (I suspect they are similar to the "built-in" Settings page that is available in the other Sketches). He may have already included the FTP code. Either way it is simple.
Add this to your include lines:
#include <ESP8266FtpServer.h>
Then further down create the object:
FtpServer ftpSrv;
Then in your begin statements, after you start (begin) SPIFFS, add this line:
ftpSrv.begin("ESPS4","password");
I used variables for my l/p so that I could update them from the Settings page, but most that I have seen just use hard coded values, like above.
There are a couple of requirements for using the FTP. Here is an excerpt from the GIT page for it:
This allows you to FTP into your esp8266 and access/modify the spiffs folder/data...it only allows one ftp connection at a time....very simple for now...
I've tested it with Filezilla, and the basics work (upload/download/rename/delete). There's no create/modify directory support(no directory support in SPIFFS yet).
You need to setup Filezilla(or other client) to only allow 1 connection..
To force FileZilla to use the primary connection for data transfers:
Go to File/Site Manager then select your site.
In Transfer Settings, check "Limit number of simultaneous connections" and set the maximum to 1
only supports Passive ftp mode....
It does NOT support any encryption, so you'll have to disable any form of encryption...
HTH
