Hi, I receive a file outside of EPiServer via ftp. I need to programmatically stream the file into the Unified File System. The file is a spreadsheet so reading line by line would not work. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

There is an example in the SDK on how to do this using the UnifiedDirectory.CreateFile method.



UnifiedDirectory dir = UnifiedFileSystem.GetDirectory("/upload");
UnifiedFile file = dir.CreateFile("Myfile.txt");
Stream s = file.OpenWrite();
StreamWriter w = new StreamWriter(s);
w.WriteLine("Hello world!");
w.Close();
s.Close();

To enable FTP functionality in .NET applications, try the FtpSupport.dll: http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Details.aspx?SampleGuid=766E4992-5E9E-46E9-85CA-EF0F0DCECE72
