one verrrrrrrrry bad think about sublime is that it doesn't support FTP! there is a veeeeeeery complicated Plugin about SFTP. how can i install this only FTP plugin for Sublime?!

PS: are there any other FTP plugins for sublime?

DADE

Why it's complicated? I mean all you need is open config file, write

type - ftp or sftp

host - your ftp host

user - your ftp username

pw - your ftp password

path - what folder you want to take files from

And that's all. If you want upload files automatically after saving them, use "upload_on_save". I don't understand what can be easier? :)

thanks @DADE you are right but first you should install it! how can i install that? and where is config file?

DADE

open console (ctrl+~) and type:

import urllib2,os;pf='Package Control.sublime-package';ipp=sublime.installed_packages_path();os.makedirs(ipp) if not os.path.exists(ipp) else None;open(os.path.join(ipp,pf),'wb').write(urllib2.urlopen('http://sublime.wbond.net/'+pf.replace(' ','%20')).read())

Press enter, it will enable package control.
Restart sublime
Go to Preferences - Package Control
type: Install package
type: SFTP
Open folder you want to use for FTP files.
Right click it - SFTP/FTP - Map To Remote - here's your config file.

or you can download archive and extract it to %appdata%/Sublime Text 2/Packages folder.

thanks very much @DADE but here is my problems:

when i do step 1 of yours i get: ImportError: No module named 'urllib2'

2.there is no Package Control item in Preferences

DADE

You are using Sublime 3? There won't be any package control button untill step 1 will be done.

mostafaghanbari

did i mentione i use ST3?! yes i do use ST3! Sorry i forgot that

DADE

Okay, here's what you can do. If you don't really need package controll just download SFTP archive from their webpage and extract it to %appdata%/Sublime Text 2/Packages folder.

If you need package controll the only way you can install it is via git. Here's what you need to do:

cd Packages/
git clone https://github.com/wbond/sublime_package_control.git "Package Control"
cd "Package Control"
git checkout python3
