Switch FTP Sync is an app that keeps an eye on an FTP server for Nintendo Switch screenshots and specific folders, then downloads them to your computer. It works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Features
- Connects to an FTP server and checks for new files in specified directories.
- Downloads new screenshots to a local directory.
- Logs all actions with timestamps.
- Clears terminal lines for a clean and readable output.
Requirements
- Computer running macOS or Windows 10/11.
- Python 3.x (for building)
- FTP server accessible with the necessary credentials
- Requires sys-ftpd Switch or a similar background FTP module running on the Switch.
Configuration
The script reads configuration details from a config.ini file located in the same directory as the script. Below is an example config.ini file:
[FTP] server = X.X.X.X port = 5000 user = root pass = [Screenshots] dt_format = %Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S output_path = sync_screenshots = False [File Sync] server_path_1 = output_path_1 = sync_files_1 = False server_path_2 = output_path_2 = sync_files_2 = False server_path_3 = output_path_3 = sync_files_3 = False server_path_4 = output_path_4 = sync_files_4 = False server_path_5 = output_path_5 = sync_files_5 = False [Settings] check_rate = 15 auto_start = False Copy
ftp_server: IP address of the FTP server.ftp_port: Port number of the FTP server.ftp_user: Username for FTP login.ftp_pass: Password for FTP login (leave empty if no password).output_path: Local directory where files will be saved.auto_start: Variable for auto start (True/False)check_rate: Time interval (in seconds) to wait between checks.dt_format: Format of image file name.
