I've been trying to write a python code which can archive the files of ftp server into one zip file and download it :

And so far I understand I need to use ftplib for this:

```
import os
from time import strftime
from ftplib import FTP

day = strftime("%d")
today = strftime("%d-%m-%Y")

link = FTP(ftphost)
link.login(passwd = ftp_pass, user = ftp_user)
link.cwd(file_path)

```

And I think I need to use `FTP.sendcmd` function to send a command to FTP server to have it archive all the files into one and actually I am not really sure which command I need to send though.

To download the file, the function seems legit to me:

```
import os
def download(ftp,file, localdir):
    f = open(os.path.join(localdir, file),"wb")
    ftp.retrbinary("RETR " + file,f.write)
    f.close()

```

Can someone put together what I've been trying to do here please?
