WaterBucket

Waterbucket is an OpenSource terminal based project under the WAFER organization. It is written in shell script currently but will be ported to python to extend its availability to other operating systems. Currently, in order to use this project on other operating systems such as Windows, the user can use WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) or by simply installing Bash from the windows store.

Why?

The WAFER project fetches it's data from a lot of different web servers. To automate downloading needed files for the project, Water Bucket usues a modified version of wget called extwget to source from URL(s), lists of URLs or text files.

Dependencies

  • Git
  • POSIX Shell

Setup

Simply, open a terminal and run:

git clone https://github.com/WAFERed/WaterBucket.git

How To Use

For simple downloads,

./extwget.sh [URL]

For multiple downloads,

./extwget.sh [URL1] [URL2] …

For sources in a file

./extwget.sh [FILEPATH]

For already prepared sources,

./extwget.sh sources/[FILENAME]
