Hi,
I have problems downloading complete folders via ftp with R. Single files
work fine.
I tried Rcurl, but it does not work.
This is my code:
url =
ftp://disc2.nascom.nasa.gov/data/TRMM/Gridded/Derived_Products/3B42_V6/Daily/2009/
filenames = getURL(url, ftp.use.epsv = FALSE, ftplistonly = TRUE, crlf =
TRUE)
filenames = paste(url, strsplit(filenames, \r*\n)[[1]], sep = )
no problems until here, I get a list with the files I want. But then, when
I
use:
download.file(filenames, destfile=) I don't know how to tell R to use the
same names for the destfiles als the filenames.
If i use:
con = getCurlHandle( ftp.use.epsv = FALSE)
contents = sapply(filenames[1:5], getURL, curl = con)
names(contents) = filenames[1:length(contents)]
I get an error in curlPerform.
I know, it's easy to download ftp folders with appropriate programs, but i
want to manage to get it work in R
greets
Martin
