I am trying to download the files for a project using wget
, as the SVN server for that project isn't running anymore and I am only able to access the files through a browser. The base URLs for all the files is the same like
http://abc.tamu.edu/projects/tzivi/repository/revisions/2/raw/tzivi/*
How can I use wget
(or any other similar tool) to download all the files in this repository, where the "tzivi" folder is the root folder and there are several files and sub-folders (upto 2 or 3 levels) under it?
You may use this in shell:
wget -r --no-parent http://abc.tamu.edu/projects/tzivi/repository/revisions/2/raw/tzivi/
The Parameters are:
-r //recursive Download
and
--no-parent // Don´t download something from the parent directory
If you don't want to download the entire content, you may use:
-l1 just download the directory (tzivi in your case)
-l2 download the directory and all level 1 subfolders ('tzivi/something' but not 'tivizi/somthing/foo')
And so on. If you insert no -l
option, wget
will use -l 5
automatically.
If you insert a -l 0
you´ll download the whole Internet, because wget
will follow every link it finds.
You can use this in a shell:
wget -r -nH --cut-dirs=7 --reject="index.html*" \
http://abc.tamu.edu/projects/tzivi/repository/revisions/2/raw/tzivi/
The Parameters are:
-r recursively download
-nH (--no-host-directories) cuts out hostname
--cut-dirs=X (cuts out X directories)
This link just gave me the best answer:
$ wget --no-clobber --convert-links --random-wait -r -p --level 1 -E -e robots=off -U mozilla http://base.site/dir/
Worked like a charm.
wget -r --no-parent URL --user=username --password=password
the last two options are optional if you have the username and password for downloading, otherwise no need to use them.
You can also see more options in the link https://www.howtogeek.com/281663/how-to-use-wget-the-ultimate-command-line-downloading-tool/
use the command
wget -m www.ilanni.com/nexus/content/
you can also use this command :
wget --mirror -pc --convert-links -P ./your-local-dir/ http://www.your-website.com
so that you get the exact mirror of the website you want to download
try this working code (30-08-2021):
!wget --no-clobber --convert-links --random-wait -r -p --level 1 -E -e robots=off --adjust-extension -U mozilla "yourweb directory with in quotations"
This works:
wget -m -np -c --no-check-certificate -R "index.html*" "https://the-eye.eu/public/AudioBooks/Edgar%20Allan%20Poe%20-%2"
This will help
wget -m -np -c --level 0 --no-check-certificate -R"index.html*"http://www.your-websitepage.com/dir
