    "port": 21,
    "username": "user",
    "password": "pass",
    "rootDirectory": "/path/",
    "ignoredFilenames": ["example.py", "anotherFilename.json"],
    "ignoredExtensions": [".ignore", ".txt"],
    "ignoredFolders": ["ignore", "IGNORE"],
    "reuseSessions": true,
    "connectionTimeout": 600,
    "passive": true,
    "useTLS": true,
    "disabledEvents": ["deleteFile"],
    "noPromptEvents": ["createFolder"],
    "triggers": [
        {
            "on": "save",
            "extensions": [".css", ".js"],
            "execute": ".simple-ftp-deploy/minifier.py"
        }
    ]
}

Properties

"host" string
The hostname or IP address of your FTP server.

"port" number, optional (default: 21)
The port of the FTP server.

"username" string
The username.

"password" string, optional
The password. If not given, you will be asked for it once needed.

"rootDirectory" string, optional (default: "/")
The FTP path to deploy.
Example: in the root of FTP you have three folders site1, site2, site3 and if you need to upload in site2 folder, you must set this property to /site2, because if you skip this property, files will be upload to the root of FTP.

"ignoredFilenames" array of strings, optional (default: [])
List of filenames, that are ignored and not uploaded. Note that "simple-ftp-deploy.json" is ALWAYS ignored. Case-sensitive

"ignoredExtensions" array of strings, optional (default: [])
List of extensions to ignore. Note that it only check last extension (so file.tar.gz has extension ".gz") and if you want to ignore files like .htaccess, this file has no extension => use "ignoredFilenames" instead. Case-sensitive

"ignoredFolders" array of strings, optional (default: [])
List of folder names to ignore. The file is ignored, if it is in at least one of the specified folders (so folder1/folder2/file.py is ignored if "ignoredFolders" contains "folder1" and/or "folder2"). Case-sensitive

"reuseSessions" boolean, optional (default: true)
Whatever FTP session will be reused for next action (keeps session open for "connectionTimeout"; previously named "sessionCacheEnabled").

"connectionTimeout" number, optional (default: 600)
Sets timeout for FTP connections (in seconds).

"passive" boolean, optional (default: true)
Whether to connect to the FTP server in passive mode.

"useTLS" boolean, optional (default: false)
Whether to connect to the FTP server with TLS connection (May not work correctly in Sublime Text 3).

"disabledEvents" array of strings, optional (default: [])
List of events that will be disabled (for example if you do not want to click Cancel every time you are asked if you want to delete file(s) from FTP server too) Available events are: "deleteFile"

"noPromptEvents" array of strings, optional (default: [])
List of events that won't prompt you (for example if you do not want to click Delete every time you are asked if you want to delete file(s) from FTP server too) Available events are: "deleteFile", "createFolder"

"triggers" array of triggers (objects), optional (default: [])
List of custom triggers to call when specific event happens. Each trigger can contain:

"on" string - When to call trigger (available values: "save" or "delete").
"extensions" array of string, optional - For which file extensions call this trigger. See "ignoredExtension" for more info.
