LocalFile Property

The file on the local host to transfer the data to/from.

Syntax

 tftp.getLocalFile([callback])
 tftp.setLocalFile( localFile, [callback])

Default Value

""

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getLocalFile([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setLocalFile([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

If GetFile is called, and LocalFile already exists, it is overwritten. If PutFile is called, LocalFile must point to a valid file, or an error will be returned.
