ocDownloader

ocDownloader is an AGPL-licensed application for Nextcloud which allows you to download files from HTTP(S)/FTP(S)/Youtube/Bittorrent using the ARIA2 download manager/Curl and youtube-dl.

I'm looking for maintainers and translators, every kind of support (especially pull requests) is highly welcome.

Companion apps/extensions for Firefox/Chrome/Opera/Vivaldi and Windows

Webextension addon for both Firefox-based and Chromium-based browsers (can be found on addons.mozilla.org and the Chrome Web Store): https://github.com/e-alfred/ocDownloader_webextension

Jetpack/PMKit addon for Firefox <=56 and Palemoon: https://github.com/e-alfred/ocDownloader_palemoon

UWP Windows 8.1/10 app: https://github.com/e-alfred/ocDownloader_WindowsDesktop

If you want to write your own app or extension, this would be highly welcome. ocDownloader has an API (look at controller/lib/api.php here: https://github.com/e-alfred/ocdownloader/blob/master/controller/lib/api.php) that allows you to add and list downloads using ocDownloader.

ARIA2 installation

You have to install Aria2 on your system. To do this on Debian/Ubuntu you can use the following command:

apt-get install aria2 curl php-curl

After that, you have to run Aria2 on every boot with the same user that your webserver is running:

mkdir /var/log/aria2c /var/local/aria2c
touch /var/log/aria2c/aria2c.log
touch /var/local/aria2c/aria2c.sess
chown www-data.www-data -R /var/log/aria2c /var/local/aria2c
chmod 770 -R /var/log/aria2c /var/local/aria2c
sudo -u www-data aria2c --enable-rpc --rpc-allow-origin-all -c -D --log=/var/log/aria2c/aria2c.log --check-certificate=false --save-session=/var/local/aria2c/aria2c.sess --save-session-interval=2 --continue=true --input-file=/var/local/aria2c/aria2c.sess --rpc-save-upload-metadata=true --force-save=true --log-level=warn

You have to enable the RPC interface and save the session file of Aria2, otherwise your old downloads won't be listed after you restart Aria2. The file paths in the example can be changed if you want to store them elsewhere as long as the user running your webserver can access/write to them.

You can find the documentation of Aria2 here.

Youtube-dl installation

To download Youtube videos, you have to install youtube-dl. The packages shipped with distributions are very outdated most of the time. To get around this, you can use this repository containing recent youtube-dl packages for Ubuntu by following the instructions there: Webupd8 PPA

For other distributions, you can install youtube-dl manually Note : You have to install Python on your server. This a requierement for youtube-dl.

After installing youtube-dl, you have to set the right path to your youtube-dl executeable in the admin settings of ocDownloader.

Using Curl instead of Aria2

If you don't have Aria2 available on your server, you can use Curl which is directly integrated into PHP. This allows you to make HTTP(S) and FTP(S) downloads (BitTorrent is not supported by Curl). You need to install the PHP Curl module, on Debian you can use the following command to do this:

apt-get install curl php-curl

Afterwards, you have to make sure that fallback.sh and fallback.php in the /SERVER directory of the ocDownloader app are executeable by your webserver user:

chmod +x SERVER/fallback.*

If you have problems with Curl, the log files are saved to the /tmp folder on your server with these semicolon-seperated values:

  • The status
  • The download total size
  • The current downloaded size
  • The speed
  • The PID of the PHP process which downloads your file (this allows to pause/restart the download while it is in progress)
