GNU Wget
|
|
========
|
|
Current Web home: https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/
|
|
|
|
GNU Wget is a free utility for non-interactive download of files from
|
|
the Web. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP protocols, as well as
|
|
retrieval through HTTP proxies.
|
|
|
|
It can follow links in HTML pages and create local versions of remote
|
|
web sites, fully recreating the directory structure of the original
|
|
site. This is sometimes referred to as "recursive downloading."
|
|
While doing that, Wget respects the Robot Exclusion Standard
|
|
(/robots.txt). Wget can be instructed to convert the links in
|
|
downloaded HTML files to the local files for offline viewing.
|
|
|
|
Recursive downloading also works with FTP, where Wget can retrieves a
|
|
hierarchy of directories and files.
|
|
|
|
With both HTTP and FTP, Wget can check whether a remote file has
|
|
changed on the server since the previous run, and only download the
|
|
newer files.
|
|
|
|
Wget has been designed for robustness over slow or unstable network
|
|
connections; if a download fails due to a network problem, it will
|
|
keep retrying until the whole file has been retrieved. If the server
|
|
supports regetting, it will instruct the server to continue the
|
|
download from where it left off.
|
|
|
|
If you are behind a firewall that requires the use of a socks style
|
|
gateway, you can get the socks library and compile wget with support
|
|
for socks.
|
|
|
|
Most of the features are configurable, either through command-line
|
|
options, or via initialization file .wgetrc. Wget allows you to
|
|
install a global startup file (/usr/local/etc/wgetrc by default) for
|
|
site settings.
|
|
|
|
Wget works under almost all Unix variants in use today and, unlike
|
|
many of its historical predecessors, is written entirely in C, thus
|
|
requiring no additional software, such as Perl. The external software
|
|
it does work with, such as OpenSSL, is optional. As Wget uses the GNU
|
|
Autoconf, it is easily built on and ported to new Unix-like systems.
|
|
The installation procedure is described in the INSTALL file.
|
|
|
|
As with other GNU software, the latest version of Wget can be found at
|
|
the master GNU archive site ftp.gnu.org, and its mirrors. Wget
|
|
resides at <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/wget/>.
|
|
|
|
