My Github repository has the source code and a .exe file to be downloaded and installed on Windows.
Some of my clients are getting problems because they can't identify the installer on the zip file they download.
Is there a way to create an easy download link with only some specific files of the repo?
You may want to use the API from github
You could also create a website for your clients to mainly download your files.
http://develop.github.com/p/repo.html
Ok, I'm sorry. I just find it now.
So I'll post how I did it so other may find the answer too:
You just have to click on the .exe file and on the right side (a pretty small thing for me) you'll se the option "Raw" which if you click will download the file.
I guess I was a little precipitate.

If I'm looking at an Apple opensource page like this:
https://opensource.apple.com/source/Chess/
How can I download one of those projects to my hard drive so I can open it in XCode?
The main stumbling block for me is simply downloading one of the root folders (projects).
There is a similar existing question, but it is specific to the "wget" utility (this question is more general) and its best answer only suggests this official Apple OSS github repo, but that does NOT include all the projects contained within opensource.apple.com, for example, it only contains the most recent version of chess, not ANY of the previous ones.
So, on opensource.apple.com, I cannot:
Right-click and select download, because the folders are just links to more HTML, not directly to files.
FTP to the url, because I don't have an FTP app installed on my Mac, and even if I did, I don't know if the Apple site would accommodate this.
Download each and every file one-by-one, recreating the local folder structure manually... because that seems foolish.
And as stated, while it is trivial to download from the Apple OSS github page, it doesn't contain the code I need!
I Googled this and surprisingly can't find anything.
So, is there a way to easily download from sourcecode.apple.com?
It looks like that's an older interface to access the open source code.
I went to https://opensource.apple.com/, clicked on the View Releases button which takes you to https://opensource.apple.com/releases/. There you can browse the separate projects. For example, to get the latest version of Chess, click on macOS, then macOS 13.0, then find Chess-466.4.1. There should be a download link and/or a link to the project on Github.
For instance, all open source projects for macOS 13.0: https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/distribution-macOS/tree/macos-130.
I used to use Dreamweaver. I've a huge Classic ASP website. I edit the files on my local system, and when done, I can upload the file(s) via ftp to the remote webserver. Now, I try to switch to VSCode. I've installed ftp-simple, ftp-sync and deploy. But can't find the set-up to get a Dreamweaver like behaviour. Eg, I have to locate for each file I want to upload/deploy, the exact location in the remote file tree.
I really feel like deploy deserves more attention. I spent the past 4 days or so to find an extension that does just that. Auto-upload to an ftp-folder from a local folder. I wanted to make git work for my website, but couldn't get that to work on the server with ftp-simple or ftp-sync because those extensions only download the opened files or open in a different temporary folder each time. I set up deploy now and got exactly what I wanted thanks to your tiny comment, thank you!
(I'm sorry if this post is too old to comment on, but I browsed Stack overflow for days to find this, so I thought it might help others in the future to point this out.)
it sounds like your just missing your mapping configuration. Most text editor FTP packages include a configuration file where you specify the server, your credentials, and the root folder of your ftp server. Have you specified this?
How can I clone an existing Parse Cloud Project files to my computer with the command line tool? I tried parse new and selected a project but it created a folder with new files, not the files that I already had in the Parse Cloud.
Note: I did not find clue regarding that point in the Parse cloud code documentation neither via Google.
Thanks!
With the new release of parse-cli, this is possible now. Make sure your cli is at least at version 2.2.5
Follow below instructions to download cloud code files on your new machine:
parse new then choose e for existing app, then choose your app. This will create a new project directory.
Browse to your project folder using command line tool
Use this command to download: parse download [app] -f. Replace [app] with the app name. Note that -f will override all current files in the directory
If you want to download code files to existing project, you can skip step 1.
Note this is now possible (2016), with new features at Parse.
Response from a Parse engineer:
"This is by design, which means that maybe we will include this feature one day. For the moment, the CLI tool cannot pull files from cloud code. The tool can only deploy code to Parse, it is not meant to be used in place of source control.
Thanks."
I spent a lot of time looking up an answer (on Google and the closed Parse forum) to this unanswered question. I finally had an answer from a Parse engineer, after having asked them on the Parse/Facebook bug tracker system, if it was possible to clone existing cloud code.
So I hope this answer will help you guys.
I need to make available my code for some reviewers to be downloaded from web. How can I do that & through which website. I need to put all files & installation instructions using which they can install my app from link that I give.
Check out :
http://Codeplex.com
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com
You can always zip it and host it somewhere online for downloading. I'm sure anyone opening the archive will read the README file first so you can put your instructions there.
This should a quick question for some easy rep.
I'm doing some PHP Website development, decided to check out and play around with jQuery as well. I don't want to install and manage a local PHP server/service, but I would like a quick one click method for automatically uploading the PHP file I'm working on to my hosting service so I can test it live.
I'm looking into some different editors like Komodo Edit, Notepad++ but I'm wondering what tool has the ability to one click FTP for me?
Edit after a few posts came in:
Well Shoot, Ultra Edit costs around $100, and Aptana allows you to upload to their "Cloud", but you have to purchase the cloud space. I already have my own server. I'll have look into BlueFish a bit more....Thanks for the help guys.
I'm thinking I might try using Notepad++ and just write a batch file to run windows built in FTP, make a connection and copy all the files in a folder in auto-overwrite mode. Seem feasible?
I have a setup that I use FileZilla as the FTP, and NotePad++ as my text editor.
Within FileZilla, I set NotePad++ as the default text editor, and when I hit Ctrl-S within the file I am working on at that time, it automatically uploads those changes to the server.
You will be able to edit the preferences within FileZilla (http://filezilla-project.org) to set your default text editor, this is something you should be able to do with any FTP program.
Check out this post for more information: http://linhost.info/2008/01/notepad-and-filezilla-tip/
UEStudio has integrated (S)FTP, SVN, etc, plus the ability to open a file over FTP - of course, it actually just downloads to a temp file, but each time you press save, it uploads it to the server again.
I'm pretty much obliged to point out just now that you might want to reconsider your decision to avoid a local development environment. Using XAMPP, it's ridiculously easy to set up a local web server. There are a multitude of benefits to this, far too many to list, even.
The Aptana IDE can do one-click upload via FTP and also synchronize all files between your local environment and remote server (based on timestamps) with one click as well.
Bluefish can edit the file directly on the FTP server. I'm not sure if the Win32 version can do that though.
i use e-texteditor. It's some kind of textmate clone, only is better :P
I have used sublime text with sftp pluggin.
sublime3 and
sftp pluggin
You only need to config sftp file on root folder.
Works quite good.

Most advanced editors/IDE's like Zend Studio allow adding FTP servers and editing files directly. Once modified, pressing Ctrl+S would update the file on server.
