Library Genesis FTP Uploader

Using python's ftplib we are able to anonymously upload the Library Genesis.
Items can be uploaded in bulk, no need to use LibGen GUI.

import ftplib
from ftplib import FTP
import os
import fileinput

# connect to host, default port
ftp = FTP('ftp.libgen.lc')
# user anonymous, passwd anonymous@
ftp.login()

#change to the directory upload
ftp.cwd('upload')

#list all the directory
ftp.retrlines('LIST')

#change to the directory upload of books
ftp.cwd('/upload/_books/')

#check what is the directory we are in
ftp.pwd()

#ask in terminal for the file that is going to be uploaded
localfile = (input("What file do you want to upload? (include extention as example.pdf): "))

#use the file from  the input, read binary
fp = open(localfile, 'rb')
#1024 is the block size
ftp.storbinary('STOR %s' % os.path.basename(localfile), fp, 1024)

# close file and FTP session
fp.close()
ftp.quit()
