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

22 Replies, 1476 Views

Hey, for large files, I’d suggest using `--mirror` to mirror entire directories. Also, `--convert-links` is great for fixing links in downloaded files.

For retries, `--retry-on-404` is super useful. It retries on 404 errors, which is handy.

For threading, yeah, it’s clunky. Maybe try `trio`? It’s a bit niche but works wonders for async downloads.
