## NiFTP
Only supports Ruby 2.0.0+
A Ruby gem, makes Ruby's decidedly un-nifty Net::FTP library easier to
use. It abstracts away the FTP plumbing, such as establishing and closing
connections. Options include retrying your commands on flakey FTP servers, and
forced timeouts. FTP Secure (FTPS) is also supported.

## Usage
    # Without NiFTP:
    begin
      client = Net::FTP.new("localhost")
      client.list
    ensure
      client.try(:close)
    end

    # With NiFTP:
    ftp("localhost") { |client| client.list }

    # A more concrete example:

    # Mixin the +NiFTP+ module, which provides the +ftp+ method.
    require 'niftp'
    class SomeObject
      include NiFTP

      def ftps_options
        {
          username: "",
          password: "",
          ftps: true,
          ssl_context_params: {
            verify_mode: OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
          }
        }
      end

      def ftp_stuff
        ftp("ftp.appareldownload.com", ftps_options) do |client|
          files = client.list('n*')
          # ...
          file = client.getbinaryfile('nif.rb-0.91.gz', 'nif.gz', 1024)
          # ...
        end
      end
    end

## Options

* **username**: The user name, if required by the host (default: "").
* **password**: The password, if required by the host (default: "").
* **port**: The port for the host (default: 21).
* **tries**: The number of times to try the given FTP commands upon any
  exception, before raising the exception (Default: 2, meaning it will *retry
  once* upon any exception).
* **sleep**: The number of seconds to sleep in between tries (default: 1).
* **on**: An array of errors to limit when the code block is retried
  (default: StandardError).  See the
  [retryable](https://github.com/nfedyashev/retryable) gem for usage details
* **matching**: An exception message regex to limit when the code block is
  retried (default: /.*/).  See the
  [retryable](https://github.com/nfedyashev/retryable) gem for usage details
* **timeout**: The number of seconds to wait before timing out authentication
  (default: 30). Use 0 to disable the authentication timeout.
* **passive**: Set to false to prevent a connection in passive mode (default:
  true).
* **ftps**: Set to true if connecting to a FTP Secure server (default: false).
* **ftps_mode**: Set to one of the following: `DoubleBagFTPS::EXPLICIT` or `DoubleBagFTPS::IMPLICIT` (default: `DoubleBagFTPS::IMPLICIT`).
* **ssl_context_params**: See the [DoubleBagFTPS](https://github.com/bnix/double-bag-ftps) for options. (default: { }).

## Caveats

  Setting the :tries option to 0 will raise a runtime error, otherwise the
  codeblock would never execute.


## Testing

Tests are written using minitest-spec and Mocha.
