Best Practices for Using Python Wget: How to Efficiently Download Files?

22 Replies, 1692 Views

For error handling, I always wrap my python wget calls in try-except blocks. Helps catch those pesky mid-download fails. Also, `--no-clobber` is great to avoid overwriting files accidentally.

For threading, yeah, it’s a pain. Maybe try `multiprocessing` instead? It’s a bit heavier but way more stable for parallel downloads.
