What's this?

AOGet is a download manager for easy fileset downloads from archive.org, or any other website that provides directory listing - a collection of downloadable URLs on a single page. It has a qBittorrent/uTorrent-like user interface for easy user adoption. User Guide is here.

Limitations, known issues

  • The app is in beta. Expect issues.
  • It was written in Python and can be a little slow with large filesets.
  • It does not support parallel download threads for a single file, but can download many files in parallel.
  • Job deletion is slow with large jobs.
  • You can set global bandwidth limits, but not on a per-file basis.
  • The app does not explore directories recursively, it's limited to the flat set of files on a page.
  • There is no support for page logins, CAPTCHAs or any other non-trivial downloads.
  • As of 0.9.1 the rate display will be unreliable with very slow servers (<4KB/s) or many threads + bandwidth limit.
  • The target filenames are not temporaray as is the good practice with download managers (.filepart etc.)

What's next?

I plan to do updates if the app sees some actual use.
