# FastDownloader
|
||
Download files from the internet with a simple command line interface.
|
||
Will significantly speed up loading from sites that slow down single-threaded
|
||
download speeds. Applicable to cdn of sites with pirated films, for example.
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
- Install [pipx](https://pypa.github.io/pipx/installation/)
|
||
- Run `pipx install git+https://github.com/kotikotprojects/FastDownloader`
|
||
|
||
## Usage
|
||
Provide direct link to file as argument.
|
||
```
|
||
fastdl https://example.com/big_file.zip
|
||
```
|
||
Use `-h` or `--help` to see all options.
|
||
|
||
## Important
|
||
Not all sites support adding a `Range` header, so if you get an error when loading -
|
||
it’s impossible to speed it up, try using browser downloaders.
|
||
For example, huggingface supports `Range` header, you can try it out. Notice that
|
||
huggingface does not cut down the download speed, so this application most likely will
|
||
not help if your Internet speed is low.
