ftp.get() not working correctly

[alimsahy]

When I try to download the file with the get method, it downloads the file but the file appears to be 0 kb. Is there something I did wrong?

function downloadUpdates()
{
        return new Promise((resolve, reject) =>
            {
                if (filesToUpdate.length > 0)
                {
                    filesToUpdate.forEach(file =>
                    {
                        var fileName = file.split('/').pop();
                        var filePath = file.replace(fileName, '');
                        var localPath = application.getAppPath() + '/files' + file.replace(ftpPath, '');
                        
                        console.log(fileName);
                        console.log('Download Destination: ' + localPath);
                        console.log('Remote location: ' + file);

                        ftp.get(file, localPath, (err) =>
                        {
                            console.log('Downloading..');
                        });
                    });
                    resolve(true);
                }
                else
                {
                    reject(false);
                }
            });
        }

So after all. I am using basic-ftp. It works well. recommend to others if have the same problem but still want to use a similar ftp package.

Thanks @JonathanChaochen i tried basic-ftp and it works. Don't recommend using this lib. Those weird issues wasted me a lot of time

For who want to work with sftp, you can use this package, easy to use:
