best method to upload to FTP keeping directory structure

[flieckster]

hello all, can anyone point me in the correct direction or where to start with my issue (of which i have many). I have the need to upload a directory, within another directory, with images in the sub directories. Main Dir -- sub dir -- image -- sub dir2 -- image i have no issue globing the contents of a directory, and FTP, but whats the best way to move these other then zipping the directory up, and transferring as a zip? thank you for your guidance as always.

Hi! Searching metacpan for "ftp", or better for "ftp recursive" will lead you to Net::FTP::Recursive. Then a super search for Net::FTP::Recursive (and looking through the results) reveals an apparently working script in Net::FTP::Recursive question. The bug mentioned there seems to be fixed meanwhile, and the test matrix of the module is mostly green.

I didn't test anything of it, that's up to you - I just wanted to show off my magical search skills :-)

Does it have to be FTP or would you consider Rsync? There are several rsync modules on cpan.
