Usage

Overview

darxget is a simple Darxite client that gets a URL from the command-line. It's very useful for scripts and for basic use.

Options

-v, --version

Shows the program's version and exits.

-h, --help

Shows some usage information and exits.

-b, --blocking

Instead of returning immediately, does not return until the file to be transferred is complete.

-c<host>:<port>, --connect <host>:<port>

Connects to the Darxite daemon running on <host>, listening on <port>. If run with this option, the first thing the program will do is ask for a password.

-e, --echo

Echoes the command sent to the daemon as it is sent.

-f<flags>, --flags <flags>

Uses <flags> as file transfer options. Allowable flags are defined in the develop.txt file. Warning: this option overrides many others and is mainly included for use in debugging.

-n, --no-resume

By default, if the same file is transferred twice, it will be resumed the second time. This option overrides this behaviour and wipes the local file before starting transfer.

-o<path>, --output <path>

Places the file to be transferred in the specified location. If <path> ends in a slash, the file will retain its name but be placed in the directory specified.

-p, --paused

Add the file to the batch "paused", ie. it will be queued until it is resumed.

-q, --quiet

Makes the program completely silent.

-r, --recursive

Gets an FTP directory recursively.

-t<secs>, --timeout <secs>

When waiting for the daemon to respond, timeout after <secs>. This option is only really useful when running the daemon remotely with a very slow connection.

-u<user>, --user <user>

Log into the FTP site with login name <user>. The program will ask for a password before the file starts being transferred.
