Depending on your needs, you could use it instead of an AJAX request (or using window.location) so long as the file you want to download is on the … Read more
Updating youtube-dl helped me. Depending on the way you installed it, here are the commands: youtube-dl –update (self-update) pip install -U youtube-dl (via python) brew upgrade youtube-dl (macOS + homebrew) choco upgrade youtube-dl (Windows + Chocolatey)
var links = [ ‘https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/launcher/Minecraft.exe’, ‘https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/launcher/Minecraft.dmg’, ‘https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/launcher/Minecraft.jar’ ]; function downloadAll(urls) { var link = document.createElement(‘a’); link.setAttribute(‘download’, null); link.style.display = ‘none’; document.body.appendChild(link); for (var i = 0; i < urls.length; i++) { link.setAttribute(‘href’, urls[i]); link.click(); } document.body.removeChild(link); } <button onclick=”downloadAll(window.links)”>Test me!</button>
I might suggest this, as a more gracefully degrading solution, using preventDefault: $(‘a’).click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); //stop the browser from following window.location.href=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1296085/uploads/file.doc”; }); <a href=”no-script.html”>Download now!</a> Even if there’s no Javascript, at least this way the user will get some feedback.
With PowerShell 2.0 (Windows 7 preinstalled) you can use: (New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadFile(‘http://www.example.com/package.zip’, ‘package.zip’) Starting with PowerShell 3.0 (Windows 8 preinstalled) you can use Invoke-WebRequest: Invoke-WebRequest http://www.example.com/package.zip -OutFile package.zip From a batch file they are called: powershell -Command “(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadFile(‘http://www.example.com/package.zip’, ‘package.zip’)” powershell -Command “Invoke-WebRequest http://www.example.com/package.zip -OutFile package.zip” (PowerShell 2.0 is available for installation on XP, 3.0 for … Read more
Simply You can use following methods. using (WebClient client = new WebClient()) { client.DownloadFile(new Uri(url), @”c:\temp\image35.png”); // OR client.DownloadFileAsync(new Uri(url), @”c:\temp\image35.png”); } These methods are almost same as DownloadString(..) and DownloadStringAsync(…). They store the file in Directory rather than in C# string and no need of Format extension in URi If You don’t know the … Read more
As far as I can tell, the proper way to do this is: import requests, zipfile, StringIO r = requests.get(zip_file_url, stream=True) z = zipfile.ZipFile(StringIO.StringIO(r.content)) z.extractall() of course you’d want to check that the GET was successful with r.ok. For python 3+, sub the StringIO module with the io module and use BytesIO instead of StringIO: … Read more
This is a common issue but few people know there’s a simple HTML 5 solution: <a href=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/364946/./directory/yourfile.pdf” download=”newfilename”>Download the pdf</a> Where newfilename is the suggested filename for the user to save the file. Or it will default to the filename on the serverside if you leave it empty, like this: <a href=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/364946/./directory/yourfile.pdf” download>Download the pdf</a> … Read more
I’ll assume you mean download via http (error checks omitted for brevity): import (“net/http”; “io”; “os”) … out, err := os.Create(“output.txt”) defer out.Close() … resp, err := http.Get(“http://example.com/”) defer resp.Body.Close() … n, err := io.Copy(out, resp.Body) The http.Response’s Body is a Reader, so you can use any functions that take a Reader, to, e.g. read … Read more
Solution: wget -r -np -nH –cut-dirs=3 -R index.html http://hostname/aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd/ Explanation: It will download all files and subfolders in ddd directory -r : recursively -np : not going to upper directories, like ccc/… -nH : not saving files to hostname folder –cut-dirs=3 : but saving it to ddd by omitting first 3 folders aaa, bbb, ccc … Read more
