# bwget
**Better Wget** in Python: a tiny, single-file replacement for the parts of GNU wget most people actually use.
---
## Features
* HTTP/HTTPS downloads with a clean progress bar ([Rich](https://github.com/Textualize/rich))
* Automatic filename selection (from URL or **Content-Disposition** header)
* Resume support for partially downloaded files (HTTP range requests)
* TLS verification and proxy support (CLI, config file, or environment variables)
* Automatic retries with exponential backoff
* Optional SHA‑256 checksum verification (auto-fetch `<URL>.sha256`)
* Configuration via TOML (`~/.config/bwget/config.toml`)
## Requirements
* Python 3.8+
* [requests](https://pypi.org/project/requests/)
* [rich](https://pypi.org/project/rich/)
* [tomli](https://pypi.org/project/tomli/) (for Python < 3.11) or built‑in `tomllib`
Install via pip:
```bash
pip install requests rich tomli
```
## Installation
### From GitHub
Clone the repo and install into your `PATH`:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Sr-0w/bwget.git
cd bwget
chmod +x bwget.py
sudo mv bwget.py /usr/local/bin/bwget
```
To install the manpage:
```bash
sudo install -Dm644 bwget.1 /usr/share/man/man1/bwget.1
```
### From AUR (Arch Linux)
bwget is packaged in the Arch User Repository. You can install with an AUR helper:
```bash
yay -S bwget
# or
paru -S bwget
```
Or manually:
```bash
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/bwget.git
cd bwget
makepkg -si
```
This will build and install `/usr/bin/bwget`, the manpage, and completions.
## Usage
```bash
# Download a file
bwget https://example.com/file.tar.gz
# Force a **fresh** download (disable resume)
bwget -c https://example.com/large.iso
# Download with SHA-256 verification
bwget --sha256 0123456789abcdef... https://example.com/app.tar.gz
# Use an HTTP proxy
bwget --proxy http://proxy.local:3128 https://example.com/data.zip
# Show version
bwget --version
```
## Configuration
On first run, bwget creates a sample config at:
```text
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bwget/config.toml
# (defaults to ~/.config/bwget/config.toml)
```
Edit it to tweak defaults:
```toml
[network]
# proxy = "http://user:pass@proxy:8080"
user_agent = "bwget/0.3.2 (Python/3.x)"
max_retries = 3
base_backoff = 1.0
request_timeout = 15
stream_timeout = 30
[download]
chunk_size_kb = 256
hash_chunk_size_mb = 1
```
