Termux-app: FTP Client has only read access.

[oscl]

Today, I tried connecting ES File Explorer and Quoda Text Editor apps as FTP Client with Termux. I ran below command:
tcpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 1024 ftpd /
And the apps logged in successfully. But when I tried creating new files, deleting files, renaming or modifying files, two of those apps are showing errors. Should I do any extra steps to solve this error?

--Error while tried creating a new folder in ES File Explorer.

--Error while creating a new file in Quoda Text Editor.
Please somebody help me on solving this error.

I've also tried chmod -R 777 . command in that folder. Still not working. I have no root access.

@AJ-Creations Try to launch it with -w argument. E.g. tcpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 1024 ftpd -w /, it works after that in read-write mode.

@ardyfeb Make sure that you entering correct port.

The ftp connection are successfully, but when i navigating to file picker the file not showing and ftp server throw error log cannot open /. permission denied While i have to set the ftp root as /sdcard

[xeffyr]

Have you tried termux-setup-storage before starting ftp server ? Is ls /sdcard/ or touch /sdcard/myfile works ?

[ardyfeb]

Everything works if i use pc terminal the ftp works correctly, but no quoda, quick edit, others

Complete step for connecting termux app private directory with Quoda text editor is given below:

---

Step.1: Open Termix and run this command - tcpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 1024 ftpd /
Step.2: Open Quoda, go to it's settings/Cloud & Servers/Add Server
Step.3: Select server type as FTP, and fill below credentials to the input fields that are seen in that settings page -

Name: Any name as you wish(I gave it the name "Termux-App-Private")
Address: 0.0.0.0
Username: any name as you wish(The FTP server is started without specifying any username or password. So any username and password will work.
Password: Anything as you wish
Base URL: /data/data/com.termux/files/
Initial folder: /data/data/com.termux/files/
Port: 1024

---

Then below that form, you can see a button saying "test". Click over it to check whether the credentials are correct. If so, click over the "Save" button and start accessing termux's app private folder on your Quoda text editor.

For Node,js users, I have made a nodejs global module that will help you on starting the FTP server quickly and easily.
For nodejs users, install tap2p (Termux-App-Private Two Public) by running below command:
npm i -g tap2p and then run this command - tap2p
And continue to above 2^nd step.
Then later on whenever you want to access your termux's app-private-folder in Quoda Text Editor, just open termux and run tap2pthen open Quoda Text Editor and enjoy!

if you use tap2p, you don't have run tcpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 1024 ftpd / instead you just need to run tap2p.

I thing I could help...

@AJ-Creations Why you prefer 0.0.0.0 over 127.0.0.1 in address field ?
