wget: Downloads Files NoninteractivelyThe wget utility is a noninteractive, command line utility that can retrieve files from the Web using HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP. The following simple example uses wget to download Red Hat's home page, named index.html, to a file with the same name: $ wget http://www.redhat.com --19:42:53-- http://www.redhat.com/ => 'index.html' Resolving www.redhat.com... 209.132.177.50 Connecting to www.redhat.com|209.132.177.50|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK Length: 12,544 (12K) [text/html] 100%[==========================================================>] 12,544 --.--K/s 19:42:54 (102.49 KB/s) - 'index.html' saved [12544/12544] Use the b option to run wget in the background and to redirect its standard error to a file named wget-log: $ wget -b http://example.com/big_file.tar.gz Continuing in background, pid 10752. Output will be written to 'wget-log'. If you download a file that would overwrite a local file, wget appends a period followed by a number to the filename. Subsequent background downloads are then logged to wget-log.1, wget-log.2, and so on. The c option continues an interrupted download. The next command continues the download from the previous example in the background: $ wget -b -c http://example.com/big_file.tar.gz |
