SplFileObject fwrite alternative

Question

Hi, 
 We have the need to create a csv file with data from sugar. This file is then uploaded to a ftp server. Since the cloud does not allow the SplFileObject->fwrite() or fwrite() method to be used, is there an alternative method to create a file? Maybe as an attachment for a note or something? 
 Regards, 
 Stijn

If you want to have a file in Sugar you must create it externally and then upload it to a Note object. 
 So you must retrieve the data with a PHP or C# or JAVA or whatever script by REST calls from Sugar. In the script you create the file and distribute and/or upload it. 
 Direct acess to the cloud file system is not allowed and not possible.

Stijn Vermeulen did this before but what I did use a middle man via REST that will be the final part to send the data to FTPserver.
