Title: Automator?
Post by: dragondave on January 10, 2006, 10:20:21 PM
Will Yummy FTP support Automator actions in the future?

Thanks...

When I get around to it, yes. There's no reason why not. At the moment, you can embed an AppleScript in your work flow for Yummy FTP and that will work just fine.

How would I create an apple script to automatically run, find an iCal calendar, rename it  and upload the  file to my FTP server?  I have my Automator action done, now I just don't know how to get YummyFTP to do the same thing. :)

Finding an iCal calendar and renaming it is probably in the realm of the Finder - I guess you have those parts done in your Automator action already? The only missing part is to write an AppleScript that invokes Yummy FTP to upload your file to the server and location of your choice. This is how you do it:

1. Add a final Automator Action - Run AppleScript
2. Paste the following script:

on run {input, parameters}
   
   tell application "Yummy FTP"
      UploadURL "ftp://username:password@servername/fullpathtodestination/" with input
   end tell
   
   return input
end run

3. Since you'll need to include a full URL to your upload destination, replace the relevant parts in the example shown. If the password is stored in the Keychain then this (and its preceding colon) can be omitted.
