megadl - download exported files and directories from Mega.nz
SYNOPSIS¶
megadl [--no-progress] [--path <path>] <links>...
megadl --path - <filelink>
DESCRIPTION¶
Downloads exported files and folders from Mega.nz. Handles links
like:
•https://mega.nz/#!7YVWhCzZ!bauBlAkKKvv8hIm-8-qFmGOYS289ToQWN7rGFPzXB_w
•https://mega.nz/#F!HIlFDajT!HLiVvQQkSe1d0ogxZuaOJg
When downloading individual files, these are placed into
<path>. When downloading folders, the contents of the folder are
placed into directory specified by <path>.
To export files, you can use Mega.nz web application, or
megals(1)'s --export option.
OPTIONS¶
--path <path>

--disable-resume
Don’t resume downloads from partially dowloaded
file. Default is to resume.
--limit-speed <speed>

This option overrides config file settings. 0 means no limit. When using
ParallelTransfers > 1, upload speed limit is applied to each transfer

--proxy <proxy>

overrides config file settings. More information can be found in libcurl

Enable debugging of various aspects of the megatools
operation. You may enable multiple debugging options separated by commas. (eg.
--debug api,fs)
Available options are:
•http: Dump HTTP request/response details (can be
used to debug connection/proxy issues)
•api: Dump Mega.nz API calls
•fs: Dump Mega.nz filesystem (may require --reload
to actually print something)
•cache: Dump cache contents

REMOTE FILESYSTEM¶
Mega.nz filesystem is represented as a tree of nodes of various
types. Nodes are identified by a 8 character node handles (eg. 7Fdi3ZjC).
Structure of the filesystem is not encrypted.
Megatools maps node tree structure to a traditional filesystem
paths (eg. /Root/SomeFile.DAT).
NOTE: By the nature of Mega.nz storage, several files in
the directory can have the same name. To allow access to such files, the
names of conflicting files are extended by appending dot and their node
handle like this:
/Root/conflictingfile
/Root/conflictingfile.7Fdi3ZjC
/Root/conflictingfile.mEU23aSD
You need to be aware of several special folders:
/Root
Writable directory representing the root of the
filesystem.
/Trash
Trash directory where Mega.nz web client moves deleted
files. This directory is not used by megatools when removing files.
/Inbox
Not sure.
/Contacts
Directory containing subdirectories representing your
contacts list. If you want to add contacts to the list, simply create
subdirectory named after the contact you want to add.
/Contacts/<email>
Directories representing individual contacts in your
contacts list. These directories contain folders that others shared with you.
All shared files are read-only, at the moment.
