----
|
|
aria2c - The ultra fast download utility
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
aria2c ['OPTIONS'] ['URI' | 'MAGNET' | 'TORRENT_FILE' | 'METALINK_FILE']...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
aria2 is a utility for downloading files. The supported protocols are
|
|
HTTP(S), FTP, BitTorrent, and Metalink. aria2 can download a file from
|
|
multiple sources/protocols and tries to utilize your maximum download
|
|
bandwidth. It supports downloading a file from HTTP(S)/FTP and
|
|
BitTorrent at the same time, while the data downloaded from
|
|
HTTP(S)/FTP is uploaded to the BitTorrent swarm. Using Metalink's
|
|
chunk checksums, aria2 automatically validates chunks of data while
|
|
downloading a file like BitTorrent.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Basic Options
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
[[aria2_optref_dir]]*-d*, *--dir*=DIR::
|
|
The directory to store the downloaded file.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_input_file]]*-i*, *--input-file*=FILE::
|
|
Downloads URIs found in FILE. You can specify multiple URIs for a single
|
|
entity: separate URIs on a single line using the TAB character.
|
|
Reads input from stdin when '-' is specified.
|
|
The additional *<<aria2_optref_out, out>>* and *<<aria2_optref_dir, dir>>*
|
|
options can be specified after each line of
|
|
URIs. This optional line must start with white space(s).
|
|
See *<<_input_file, Input File>>* subsection for details.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_log]]*-l*, *--log*=LOG::
|
|
The file name of the log file. If '-' is specified, log is written to
|
|
stdout. If empty string("") is specified, log is not written to file.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_max_concurrent_downloads]]*-j*, *--max-concurrent-downloads*=N::
|
|
Set maximum number of parallel downloads for every static (HTTP/FTP) URI,
|
|
torrent and metalink. See also *<<aria2_optref_split, -s>>* and *<<aria2_optref_metalink_servers, -C>>* option.
|
|
Default: '5'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_check_integrity]]*-V*, *--check-integrity*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
|
|
Check file integrity by validating piece hashes or a hash of entire
|
|
file. This option has effect only in BitTorrent and Metalink
|
|
downloads with checksums. If piece hashes are provided, this option
|
|
can detect damaged portions of a file and re-download them. If a
|
|
hash of entire file is provided, hash check is only done when file
|
|
has benn already download. This is determined by file length. If
|
|
hash check fails, file is re-downloaded from scratch. If both piece
|
|
hashes and a hash of entire file are provided, only piece hashes are
|
|
used. Default: 'false'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_continue]]*-c*, *--continue*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
Continue downloading a partially downloaded file.
|
|
Use this option to resume a download started by a web browser or another
|
|
program which downloads files sequentially from the beginning.
|
|
Currently this option is only applicable to HTTP(S)/FTP downloads.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_help]]*-h*, *--help*[=TAG|KEYWORD]::
|
|
|
|
The help messages are classified with tags. A tag starts with
|
|
"#". For example, type "--help=#http" to get the usage for the
|
|
options tagged with "#http". If non-tag word is given, print the
|
|
usage for the options whose name includes that word.
|
|
Available Values: '#basic', '#advanced', '#http', '#https', '#ftp',
|
|
'#metalink', '#bittorrent', '#cookie', '#hook', '#file',
|
|
'#xml-rpc', '#experimental', '#all'
|
|
Default: '#basic'
|
|
|
|
HTTP/FTP Options
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
[[aria2_optref_all_proxy]]*--all-proxy*=PROXY::
|
|
|
|
Use this proxy server for all protocols. To erase previously
|
|
defined proxy, use "". You can override this setting and specify a
|
|
proxy server for a particular protocol using *<<aria2_optref_http_proxy, --http-proxy>>*,
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_https_proxy, --https-proxy>>* and *<<aria2_optref_ftp_proxy, --ftp-proxy>>* options. This affects all URIs.
|
|
The format of PROXY is [\\http://][USER:PASSWORD@]HOST[:PORT]
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
|
|
If user and password are embedded in proxy URI and they are also
|
|
specified by *--{http,https,ftp,all}-proxy-{user,passwd}* options,
|
|
those appeared later have precedence. For example, you have
|
|
http-proxy-user="myname", http-proxy-passwd="mypass" in aria2.conf and
|
|
you specify --http-proxy="http://proxy" in command-line, then you get
|
|
HTTP proxy "http://proxy" with user "myname" and password
|
|
"mypass". Another example: if you specified in command-line
|
|
--http-proxy="http://user:pass@proxy" --http-proxy-user="myname"
|
|
--http-proxy-passwd="mypass", then you will get HTTP proxy
|
|
"http://proxy" with user "myname" and password "mypass". One more
|
|
example: if you specified in command-line --http-proxy-user="myname"
|
|
--http-proxy-passwd="mypass" --http-proxy="http://user:pass@proxy",
|
|
then you get HTTP proxy "http://proxy" with user "user" and password
|
|
"pass".
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_all_proxy_passwd]]*--all-proxy-passwd*=PASSWD::
|
|
|
|
Set password for *<<aria2_optref_all_proxy, --all-proxy>>* option.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_all_proxy_user]]*--all-proxy-user*=USER::
|
|
|
|
Set user for *<<aria2_optref_all_proxy, --all-proxy>>* option.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_connect_timeout]]*--connect-timeout*=SEC::
|
|
Set the connect timeout in seconds to establish connection to
|
|
HTTP/FTP/proxy server. After the connection is established, this
|
|
option makes no effect and *<<aria2_optref_timeout, --timeout>>* option is used instead.
|
|
Default: '60'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_dry_run]]*--dry-run*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
If 'true' is given, aria2 just checks whether the remote file is
|
|
available and doesn't download data. This option has effect on
|
|
HTTP/FTP download. BitTorrent downloads are canceled if 'true' is
|
|
specified. Default: 'false'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_lowest_speed_limit]]*--lowest-speed-limit*=SPEED::
|
|
Close connection if download speed is lower than or equal to this
|
|
value(bytes per sec).
|
|
'0' means aria2 does not have a lowest speed limit.
|
|
You can append 'K' or 'M'(1K = 1024, 1M = 1024K).
|
|
This option does not affect BitTorrent downloads.
|
|
Default: '0'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_max_connection_per_server]]*-x*, *--max-connection-per-server*=NUM::
|
|
|
|
The maximum number of connections to one server for each download.
|
|
Default: '1'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_max_file_not_found]]*--max-file-not-found*=NUM::
|
|
If aria2 receives `file not found' status from the remote HTTP/FTP
|
|
servers NUM times without getting a single byte, then force the
|
|
download to fail. Specify '0' to disable this option. This options is
|
|
effective only when using HTTP/FTP servers.
|
|
Default: '0'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_max_tries]]*-m*, *--max-tries*=N::
|
|
Set number of tries. '0' means unlimited.
|
|
Default: '5'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_min_split_size]]*-k*, *--min-split-size*=SIZE::
|
|
|
|
aria2 does not split less than 2*SIZE byte range. For example,
|
|
let's consider downloading 20MiB file. If SIZE is 10M, aria2 can
|
|
split file into 2 range [0-10MiB) and [10MiB-20MiB) and download it
|
|
using 2 sources(if *<<aria2_optref_split, --split>>* >= 2, of course). If SIZE is 15M,
|
|
since 2*15M > 20MiB, aria2 does not split file and download it using
|
|
1 source. You can append 'K' or 'M'(1K = 1024, 1M = 1024K).
|
|
Possible Values: '1M'-'1024M' Default: '20M'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_no_netrc]]*-n*, *--no-netrc*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
Disables netrc support. netrc support is enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_no_proxy]]*--no-proxy*=DOMAINS::
|
|
Specify comma separated hostnames, domains and network address with
|
|
or without CIDR block where proxy should not be used.
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
For network address with CIDR block, only IPv4 address works. Current
|
|
implementation does not resolve hostname in URI to compare network
|
|
address specified in *<<aria2_optref_no_proxy, --no-proxy>>*. So it is only effecive if URI has
|
|
numeric IP addresses.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_out]]*-o*, *--out*=FILE::
|
|
|
|
The file name of the downloaded file. When *<<aria2_optref_force_sequential, -Z>>* option is used, this
|
|
option is ignored.
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
In Metalink or BitTorrent download you cannot specify file name.
|
|
The file name specified here is only used when the URIs fed to aria2
|
|
are done by command line without *<<aria2_optref_input_file, -i>>*, *<<aria2_optref_force_sequential, -Z>>* option. For example:
|
|
aria2c -o myfile.zip "http://mirror1/file.zip" "http://mirror2/file.zip"
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_proxy_method]]*--proxy-method*=METHOD::
|
|
Set the method to use in proxy request. 'METHOD' is either 'get' or
|
|
'tunnel'. HTTPS downloads always use 'tunnel' regardless of this
|
|
option.
|
|
Default: 'get'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_remote_time]]*-R*, *--remote-time*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
Retrieve timestamp of the remote file from the remote HTTP/FTP
|
|
server and if it is available, apply it to the local file.
|
|
Default: 'false'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_reuse_uri]]*--reuse-uri*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
|
|
Reuse already used URIs if no unused URIs are left.
|
|
Default: 'true'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_server_stat_of]]*--server-stat-of*=FILE::
|
|
|
|
Specify the filename to which performance profile of the servers is
|
|
saved. You can load saved data using *<<aria2_optref_server_stat_if, --server-stat-if>>* option. See
|
|
*<<_server_performance_profile, Server Performance Profile>>*
|
|
subsection below for file format.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_server_stat_if]]*--server-stat-if*=FILE::
|
|
|
|
Specify the filename to load performance profile of the servers. The
|
|
loaded data will be used in some URI selector such as 'feedback'.
|
|
See also *<<aria2_optref_uri_selector, --uri-selector>>* option. See
|
|
*<<_server_performance_profile, Server Performance Profile>>*
|
|
subsection below for file format.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_server_stat_timeout]]*--server-stat-timeout*=SEC::
|
|
Specifies timeout in seconds to invalidate performance profile of
|
|
the servers since the last contact to them.
|
|
Default: '86400' (24hours)
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_split]]*-s*, *--split*=N::
|
|
|
|
Download a file using N connections. If more than N URIs are given,
|
|
first N URIs are used and remaining URIs are used for backup. If
|
|
less than N URIs are given, those URIs are used more than once so
|
|
that N connections total are made simultaneously. The number of
|
|
connections to the same host is restricted by
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_max_connection_per_server, --max-connection-per-server>>* option. Please see *<<aria2_optref_max_concurrent_downloads, -j>>* and
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_min_split_size, --min-split-size>>* option too. Please note that in Metalink
|
|
download, this option has no effect and use *<<aria2_optref_metalink_servers, -C>>* option instead.
|
|
Default: '5'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_timeout]]*-t*, *--timeout*=SEC::
|
|
Set timeout in seconds.
|
|
Default: '60'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_uri_selector]]*--uri-selector*=SELECTOR::
|
|
Specify URI selection algorithm. The possible values are 'inorder',
|
|
'feedback' and 'adaptive'. If 'inorder' is given, URI is tried in
|
|
the order appeared in the URI list. If 'feedback' is given, aria2
|
|
uses download speed observed in the previous downloads and choose
|
|
fastest server in the URI list. This also effectively skips dead
|
|
mirrors. The observed download speed is a part of performance
|
|
profile of servers mentioned in *<<aria2_optref_server_stat_of, --server-stat-of>>* and
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_server_stat_if, --server-stat-if>>* options. If 'adaptive' is given, selects one of
|
|
the best mirrors for the first and reserved connections. For
|
|
supplementary ones, it returns mirrors which has not been tested
|
|
yet, and if each of them has already been tested, returns mirrors
|
|
which has to be tested again. Otherwise, it doesn't select anymore
|
|
mirrors. Like 'feedback', it uses a performance profile of servers.
|
|
Default: 'feedback'
|
|
|

BitTorrent/Metalink Options
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
[[aria2_optref_select_file]]*--select-file*=INDEX...::
|
|
Set file to download by specifying its index.
|
|
You can find the file index using the *<<aria2_optref_show_files, --show-files>>* option.
|
|
Multiple indexes can be specified by using ",", for example: '3,6'.
|
|
You can also use "-" to specify a range: '1-5'.
|
|
"," and "-" can be used together: '1-5,8,9'.
|
|
When used with the -M option, index may vary depending on the query
|
|
(see *--metalink-** options).
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
In multi file torrent, the adjacent files specified by this option may
|
|
also be downloaded. This is by design, not a bug.
|
|
A single piece may include several files or part of files, and aria2
|
|
writes the piece to the appropriate files.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_show_files]]*-S*, *--show-files*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
Print file listing of .torrent or .metalink file and exit.

[[aria2_optref_conf_path]]*--conf-path*=PATH::
|
|
Change the configuration file path to PATH.
|
|
Default: '$HOME/.aria2/aria2.conf'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_daemon]]*-D*, *--daemon*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
Run as daemon. The current working directory will be changed to '/'
|
|
and standard input, standard output and standard error will be
|
|
redirected to '/dev/null'. Default: 'false'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_disable_ipv6]]*--disable-ipv6*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
|
|
Disable IPv6. This is useful if you have to use broken DNS and want
|
|
to avoid terribly slow AAAA record lookup. Default: 'false'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_enable_async_dns6]]*--enable-async-dns6*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
|
|
Enable IPv6 name resolution in asynchronous DNS resolver. This
|
|
option will be ignored when *<<aria2_optref_async_dns, --async-dns>>*='false'.
|
|
Default: 'false'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_enable_direct_io]]*--enable-direct-io*[='true'|'false']::
|
|
Enable directI/O, which lowers cpu usage while allocating/checking files.
|
|
Turn off if you encounter any error.
|
|
Default: 'true'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_event_poll]]*--event-poll*=POLL::
|
|
|
|
Specify the method for polling events. The possible values are
|
|
'epoll', 'kqueue', 'port', 'poll' and 'select'. For each 'epoll',
|
|
'kqueue', 'port' and 'poll', it is available if system supports it.
|
|
'epoll' is available on recent Linux. 'kqueue' is available on
|
|
various *BSD systems including Mac OS X. 'port' is available on Open
|
|
Solaris. The default value may vary depending on the system you use.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_file_allocation]]*--file-allocation*=METHOD::
|
|
|
|
Specify file allocation method.
|
|
'none' doesn't pre-allocate file space. 'prealloc' pre-allocates file space
|
|
before download begins. This may take some time depending on the size of the
|
|
file.
|
|
If you are using newer file systems such as ext4
|
|
(with extents support), btrfs or xfs, 'falloc' is
|
|
your best choice. It allocates large(few GiB)
|
|
files almost instantly. Don't use 'falloc' with
|
|
legacy file systems such as ext3 because it takes
|
|
almost same time as 'prealloc' and it blocks aria2
|
|
entirely until allocation finishes. 'falloc' may
|
|
not be available if your system doesn't have
|
|
*posix_fallocate*() function.
|
|
Possible Values: 'none', 'prealloc', 'falloc'
|
|
Default: 'prealloc'
|
|

|
|
address and hostname.
|
|
Possible Values: interface, IP address, hostname
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
If an interface has multiple addresses, it is highly recommended to
|
|
specify IP address explicitly. See also *<<aria2_optref_disable_ipv6, --disable-ipv6>>*. If your
|
|
system doesn't have getifaddrs(), this option doesn't accept interface
|
|
name.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_max_download_result]]*--max-download-result*=NUM::
|
|
|
|

|
|
results are completed/error/removed downloads. The download results
|
|
are stored in FIFO queue and it can store at most NUM download
|
|
results. When queue is full and new download result is created,
|
|
oldest download result is removed from the front of the queue and
|
|
new one is pushed to the back. Setting big number in this option may
|
|
result high memory consumption after thousands of
|
|
downloads. Specifying 0 means no download result is kept. Default:
|
|
'1000'

|
Default: '0'
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_optref_log_level]]*--log-level*=LEVEL::
|
|
Set log level to output.
|
|
LEVEL is either 'debug', 'info', 'notice', 'warn' or 'error'.
|

|
|
|
|

Options That Take An Optional Argument
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
The options that have its argument surrounded by square brackets([])
|
|
take an optional argument. Usually omiting the argument is evaluated to 'true'.
|
|
If you use short form of these options(such as '-V') and give
|
|
an argument, then the option name and its argument should be concatenated(e.g.
|
|
'-Vfalse'). If any spaces are inserted between the option name and the argument,
|
|
the argument will be treated as URI and usually this is not what you expect.
|
|
|
|
URI, MAGNET, TORRENT_FILE, METALINK_FILE
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can specify multiple URIs in command-line. Unless you specify
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_force_sequential, -Z>>* option, all URIs must point to the same file or downloading will
|
|
fail.
|
|
|
|
You can specify arbitrary number of BitTorrent Magnet URI. Please note
|
|
that they are always treated as a separate download. Both hex encoded
|
|
40 characters Info Hash and Base32 encoded 32 characters Info Hash are
|
|
supported. The multiple "tr" parameters are supported. Because
|
|
BitTorrent Magnet URI is likely to contain "&" character, it is highly
|
|
recommended to always quote URI with single(') or double(") quotation.
|
|
It is strongly recommended to enable DHT especially when "tr"
|
|
parameter is missing. See http://www.bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0009.html
|
|
for more details about BitTorrent Magnet URI.
|
|
|
|
You can also specify arbitrary number of torrent files and Metalink
|
|
documents stored on a local drive. Please note that they are always
|
|
treated as a separate download. Both Metalink4 and Metalink version
|
|
3.0 are supported.
|
|
|
|
You can specify both torrent file with -T option and URIs. By doing
|
|
this, you can download a file from both torrent swarm and HTTP(S)/FTP
|
|
server at the same time, while the data from HTTP(S)/FTP are uploaded
|
|
to the torrent swarm. For single file torrents, URI can be a complete
|
|
URI pointing to the resource or if URI ends with /, name in torrent
|
|
file in torrent is added. For multi-file torrents, name and path are
|
|
added to form a URI for each file.
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
Make sure that URI is quoted with single(') or double(") quotation if it
|
|
contains "&" or any characters that have special meaning in shell.
|
|
|
|
Resuming Download
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Usually, you can resume transfer by just issuing same command(aria2c
|
|
URI) if the previous transfer is made by aria2.
|
|
|
|
If the previous transfer is made by a browser or wget like sequential
|
|
download manager, then use -c option to continue the transfer(aria2c
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_continue, -c>>* URI).
|
|
|
|
Event Hook
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
aria2 provides options to specify arbitrary command after specific event
|
|
occurred. Currently following options are available:
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_on_bt_download_complete, --on-bt-download-complete>>*,
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_on_download_pause, --on-download-pause>>*,
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_on_download_complete, --on-download-complete>>*.
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_on_download_start, --on-download-start>>*,
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_on_download_error, --on-download-error>>*,
|
|
*<<aria2_optref_on_download_stop, --on-download-stop>>*.
|
|
|
|
aria2 passes 3 arguments to specified command when it is executed.
|
|
These arguments are: GID, the number of files and file path. For
|
|
HTTP, FTP downloads, usually the number of files is 1. BitTorrent
|
|
download can contain multiple files.
|
|
If number of files is more than one, file path is first one. In
|
|
other words, this is the value of path key of first struct whose
|
|
selected key is true in the response of
|
|
*<<aria2_xmlrpc_aria2_getFiles, aria2.getFiles>>*
|
|
XML-RPC method.
|
|
If you want to get all file paths, consider to use XML-RPC. Please
|
|
note that file path may change during download in HTTP because of
|
|
redirection or Content-Disposition header.
|
|
|
|
Let's see an example of how arguments are passed to command.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ cat hook.sh
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
echo "Called with [$1] [$2] [$3]"
|
|
$ aria2c --on-download-complete hook.sh http://example.org/file.iso
|
|
Called with [1] [1] [/path/to/file.iso]
|

|
|
EXIT STATUS
|
|
-----------
|
|

|
line. In each line, you can specify name-value pair in the format:
|
|
NAME=VALUE, where name is the long command-line option name without
|
|
"--" prefix. You can use same syntax for the command-line option. The
|
|
lines beginning "#" are treated as comments.

dht.dat
|
|
~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
By default, the routing table of IPv4 DHT is saved to the path
|
|
'$HOME/.aria2/dht.dat' and the routing table of IPv6 DHT is saved to
|
|
the path '$HOME/.aria2/dht6.dat'.
|
|
|
|
Netrc
|
|
~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Netrc support is enabled by default for HTTP(S)/FTP. To disable netrc
|
|
support, specify *<<aria2_optref_no_netrc, -n>>* option. Your .netrc file should have correct
|
|
permissions(600).
|
|
|
|
If machine name starts ".", aria2 performs domain match instead of
|
|
exact match. This is an extension of aria2. For example of domain
|
|
match, imagine the following .netrc entry:
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
machine .example.org login myid password mypasswd
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In domain match, aria2.example.org matches .example.org and uses myid
|
|
and mypasswd. example.org also matches .example.org. But example.net
|
|
does not match .example.org.
|
|
|
|
Control File
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
aria2 uses a control file to track the progress of a download. A
|
|
control file is placed in the same directory as the downloading file
|
|
and its filename is the filename of downloading file with ".aria2"
|
|
appended. For example, if you are downloading file.zip, then the
|
|
control file should be file.zip.aria2. (There is a exception for this
|
|
naming convention. If you are downloading a multi torrent, its
|
|
control file is the "top directory" name of the torrent with ".aria2"
|
|
appended. The "top directory" name is a value of "name" key in "info"
|
|
directory in a torrent file.)
|
|
|
|
Usually a control file is deleted once download completed. If aria2
|
|
decides that download cannot be resumed(for example, when downloading
|
|
a file from a HTTP server which doesn't support resume), a control
|
|
file is not created.
|
|
|
|
Normally if you lose a control file, you cannot resume download. But
|
|
if you have a torrent or metalink with chunk checksums for the file,
|
|
you can resume the download without a control file by giving -V option
|
|
to aria2c in command-line.
|
|
|
|
Input File
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The input file can contain a list of URIs for aria2 to download. You
|
|
can specify multiple URIs for a single entity: separate URIs on a
|
|
single line using the TAB character.
|
|
|
|
Each line is treated as if it is provided in command-line argument.
|
|
Therefore they are affected by *<<aria2_optref_force_sequential, -Z>>* and *<<aria2_optref_parameterized_uri, -P>>* options.
|
|
|
|
Lines starting with "#" are treated as comments and skipped.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, the following options can be specified after each line
|
|
of URIs. These optional lines must start with white space(s).
|
|
|

These options have exactly same meaning of the ones in the
|
|
command-line options, but it just applies to the URIs it belongs to.
|
|
Please note that for options in input file "--" prefix must be
|
|
stripped.
|
|
|
|
For example, the content of uri.txt is
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
http://server/file.iso http://mirror/file.iso
|
|
dir=/iso_images
|
|
out=file.img
|
|
http://foo/bar
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
If aria2 is executed with *<<aria2_optref_input_file, -i>>* uri.txt *<<aria2_optref_dir, -d>>* /tmp options, then
|
|
'file.iso' is saved as '/iso_images/file.img' and it is downloaded
|
|
from \http://server/file.iso and \http://mirror/file.iso. The file
|
|
'bar' is downloaded from \http://foo/bar and saved as '/tmp/bar'.
|
|
|
|
In some cases, *<<aria2_optref_out, out>>* parameter has no effect.
|
|
See note of *<<aria2_optref_out, --out>>*
|
|
option for the restrictions.

Server Performance Profile
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
This section describes the format of server performance profile. The
|
|
file is plain text and each line has several NAME=VALUE pair,
|
|
delimited by comma. Currently following NAMEs are recognized:
|
|
|
|
host::
|
|
Hostname of the server. Required.
|
|
|
|
protocol::
|
|
Protocol for this profile, such as ftp, http. Required.
|
|
|
|
dl_speed::
|
|
The average download speed observed in the previous download in
|
|
bytes per sec. Required.
|
|
|
|
sc_avg_speed::
|
|
The average download speed observed in the previous download in
|
|
bytes per sec. This value is only updated if the download is done in
|
|
single connection environment and only used by
|
|
AdaptiveURISelector. Optional.
|
|
|
|
mc_avg_speed::
|
|
The average download speed observed in the previous download in
|
|
bytes per sec. This value is only updated if the download is done in
|
|
multi connection environment and only used by
|
|
AdaptiveURISelector. Optional.
|
|
|
|
counter::
|
|
How many times the server is used. Currently this value is only used
|
|
by AdaptiveURISelector. Optional.
|
|
|
|
last_updated::
|
|
Last contact time in GMT with this server, specified in the seconds
|
|
since the Epoch(00:00:00 on January 1, 1970, UTC). Required.
|
|
|
|
status::
|
|
ERROR is set when server cannot be reached or out-of-service or
|
|
timeout occurred. Otherwise, OK is set.
|
|
|
|
Those fields must exist in one line. The order of the fields is not
|
|
significant. You can put pairs other than the above; they are simply
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
An example follows:
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
host=localhost, protocol=http, dl_speed=32000, last_updated=1222491640, status=OK
|
|
host=localhost, protocol=ftp, dl_speed=0, last_updated=1222491632, status=ERROR

|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
GID::
|
|
|
|
GID(or gid) is the key to manage each download. Each download has an
|
|
unique GID. Currently GID looks like an integer, but don't treat it
|
|
as integer because it may be changed to another type in the future
|
|
release. Please note that GID is session local and not persisted
|
|
when aria2 exits.

*aria2.addUri* ('uris[, options[, position]]')
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
+++++++++++
|
|
|
|
This method adds new HTTP(S)/FTP/BitTorrent Magnet URI. 'uris' is of
|
|
type array and its element is URI which is of type string. For
|
|
BitTorrent Magnet URI, 'uris' must have only one element and it should
|
|
be BitTorrent Magnet URI. URIs in 'uris' must point to the same file.
|
|
If you mix other URIs which point to another file, aria2 does not
|
|
complain but download may fail. 'options' is of type struct and its
|
|
members are a pair of option name and value. See *<<aria2_xmlrpc_options, Options>>* below for
|
|
more details. If 'position' is given as an integer starting from 0,
|
|
the new download is inserted at 'position' in the waiting queue. If
|
|
'position' is not given or 'position' is larger than the size of the
|
|
queue, it is appended at the end of the queue. This method returns
|
|
GID of registered download.
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
+++++++
|
|
|
|
The following example adds \http://example.org/file to aria2:
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
>>> import xmlrpclib
|
|
>>> s = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:6800/rpc')
|
|
>>> s.aria2.addUri(['http://example.org/file'])
|
|
'1'
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The following example adds 2 sources and some options:
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
>>> s.aria2.addUri(['http://example.org/file'], dict(dir="/tmp"))
|
|
'2'
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|

Description
|
|
+++++++++++
|
|
|
|
This method adds BitTorrent download by uploading .torrent file. If
|
|
you want to add BitTorrent Magnet URI, use *<<aria2_xmlrpc_aria2_addUri, aria2.addUri>>* method
|
|
instead. 'torrent' is of type base64 which contains Base64-encoded
|
|
.torrent file. 'uris' is of type array and its element is URI which
|
|
is of type string. 'uris' is used for Web-seeding. For single file
|
|
torrents, URI can be a complete URI pointing to the resource or if URI
|
|
ends with /, name in torrent file is added. For multi-file torrents,
|
|
name and path in torrent are added to form a URI for each file.
|
|
'options' is of type struct and its members are a pair of option name
|
|
and value. See *<<aria2_xmlrpc_options, Options>>* below for more details. If 'position' is
|
|
given as an integer starting from 0, the new download is inserted at
|
|
'position' in the waiting queue. If 'position' is not given or
|
|
'position' is larger than the size of the queue, it is appended at the
|
|
end of the queue. This method returns GID of registered download.

'gid'. 'pos' is of type integer. 'how' is of type string. If 'how' is
|
|
"POS_SET", it moves the download to a position relative to the
|
|
beginning of the queue. If 'how' is "POS_CUR", it moves the download
|
|
to a position relative to the current position. If 'how' is "POS_END",
|
|
it moves the download to a position relative to the end of the
|
|
queue. If the destination position is less than 0 or beyond the end of
|
|
the queue, it moves the download to the beginning or the end of the
|
|
queue respectively. The response is of type integer and it is the
|
|
destination position.
|
|
|
|
For example, if GID#1 is placed in position 3, aria2.changePosition(1,
|
|
-1, POS_CUR) will change its position to 2. Additional
|
|
aria2.changePosition(1, 0, POS_SET) will change its position to 0(the

same URIs exist in download, only one of them is removed for each URI
|
|
in 'delUris'. In other words, there are three URIs
|
|
"http://example.org/aria2" and you want remove them all, you have to
|
|
specify (at least) 3 "http://example.org/aria2" in 'delUris'. This

Example
|
|
+++++++
|
|
|
|
In the following example, we add 2 downloads. First one is
|
|
\http://example.org/file and second one is file.torrent:
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
>>> import xmlrpclib
|

|
|
|
|
Error Handling
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
In case of error, aria2 returns faultCode=1 and the error message in
|
|
faultString.
|
|
|
|
[[aria2_xmlrpc_options]]

Options
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Same options for *<<aria2_optref_input_file, -i>>* list are available. See *<<_input_file, Input
|
|
File>>* subsection for complete list of options.
|
|
|
|
In the option struct, name element is option name(without preceding
|
|
"--") and value element is argument as string.

|
*<<aria2_optref_header, header>>* and *<<aria2_optref_index_out, index-out>>*
|
|
option are allowed multiple times in
|
|
command-line. Since name should be unique in struct(many XML-RPC
|
|
library implementation uses hash or dict for struct), single string is
|
|
not enough. To overcome this situation, they can take array as value
|
|
as well as string.

Following example adds a download with 2 options: dir and header.
|
|
header option has 2 values, so it uses a list:
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
>>> import xmlrpclib
|
|
>>> s = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:6800/rpc')
|
|

Sample XML-RPC Client Code
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The following Ruby script adds 'http://localhost/aria2.tar.bz2' to
|
|
aria2c operated on localhost with option *<<aria2_optref_dir, --dir>>*='/downloads' and
|
|
prints its reponse.
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
|
|
|
|
require 'xmlrpc/client'
|
|
require 'pp'
|
|
|
|
client=XMLRPC::Client.new2("http://localhost:6800/rpc")
|
|
|
|
options={ "dir" => "/downloads" }
|
|
result=client.call("aria2.addUri", [ "http://localhost/aria2.tar.bz2" ], options)
|
|
|
|
pp result
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
|

|
To specify output filename for BitTorrent downloads, you need to know
|
|
the index of file in torrent file using *<<aria2_optref_show_files, -S>>* option. For example, the
|
|
output looks like this:
|
|
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
idx|path/length
|
|
===+======================
|
|
1|dist/base-2.6.18.iso

|
|99.9MiB
|
|
---+----------------------
|
|
2|dist/driver-2.6.18.iso
|
|
|169.0MiB
|
|
---+----------------------
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
To save 'dist/base-2.6.18.iso' in '/tmp/mydir/base.iso' and
|
|
'dist/driver-2.6.18.iso' in '/tmp/dir/driver.iso', use the following
|
|
command:
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
aria2c --dir=/tmp --index-out=1=mydir/base.iso --index-out=2=dir/driver.iso file.torrent

|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
Since aria2 doesn't configure firewall or router for port forwarding, it's up
|
|
to you to do it manually.
|
|
|
|
Specify the condition to stop program after torrent download finished
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In the above example, the program exits when the 120 minutes has elapsed since download completed or seed ratio reaches 1.0.
|
|
|
|
Throttle upload speed
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
aria2c --max-upload-limit=100K file.torrent
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Enable IPv4 DHT
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------
|
|
aria2c --enable-dht --dht-listen-port=6881 file.torrent
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
DHT uses udp port. Since aria2 doesn't configure firewall or router for port
|
|
forwarding, it's up to you to do it manually.
|
|
|
|
Enable IPv6 DHT
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
aria2c --enable-dht6 --dht-listen-port=6881 --dht-listen-addr6=YOUR_GLOBAL_UNICAST_IPV6_ADDR --enable-async-dns6
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
If aria2c is not built with c-ares, *<<aria2_optref_enable_async_dns6, --enable-async-dns6>>* is
|
|
unnecessary. aria2 shares same port between IPv4 and IPv6 DHT.
|
|
|
|
Add and remove tracker URI
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Removes all tracker announce URIs described in file.torrent and use
|
|
"http://tracker1/announce" and "http://tracker2/announce" instead.
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
aria2c --bt-exclude-tracker="*" --bt-tracker="http://tracker1/announce,http://tracker2/announce" file.torrent
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
aria2c --certificate=/path/to/mycert.pem --private-key=/path/to/mykey.pem https://host/file
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|
|
The file specified in *<<aria2_optref_private_key, --private-key>>* must be decrypted. The behavior when
|
|
encrypted one is given is undefined.
|
|
|
|
Verify peer in SSL/TLS using given CA certificates
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
aria2c --ca-certificate=/path/to/ca-certificates.crt --check-certificate https://host/file
