Downloading and Using the CLI

Currently, Redownload is only available with a CLI (command line interface). Instructions for downloading it and using it are as follows:

  • Go to the Releases page in this repository.
  • Select the most recent stable release (or alpha/beta, but you may have problems with them).
  • Download the file starting with redownload-cli for your operating system.

Linux Linux

  • Open a terminal
  • cd into the directory containing the redownload-cli-linux file
  • Run chmod +x ./redownload-cli-linux
  • You can now run the file with ./redownload-cli-linux <archive.org OR relisten.net link>. This will download all the .mp3's and .flac's to ./redownloads/
  • If you need more options, you can run ./redownload-cli-linux --help and it will print the help to the console.

MacOS MacOS

  • Open a terminal
  • cd into the directory containing the redownload-cli-mac file.
  • Run chmod +x ./redownload-cli-mac
  • You can now run the file with ./redownload-cli-mac <archive.org OR relisten.net link>. This will download all the .mp3's and .flac's to ./redownloads/
  • If you need more options, you can run ./redownload-cli-linux --help and it will print the help to the console.

Error Icon If you get "Apple can’t check app for malicious software" error,

By default, MacOS prevents apps from running if your system can't check if the software is malicious or not. This github repository is not malicious, so it's safe to say we can override this and run the software anyway.

  • Immediately after you get the popup, go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy
  • Near the bottom of the page, next to where it says "redownload-cli-mac was blocked from use because it is not from an identified developer", click the button that says - "Open Anyway"
  • Run the app again. (./redownload-cli-mac ...)
  • A confirmation popup will appear. Click "Open" in the new popup.

Windows Windows

  • Open cmd.exe
  • cd into the directory containing the redownload-cli-windows.exe file.
  • Run the file with redownload-cli-windows <archive.org OR relisten.net link. This will download all the .mp3's and .flac's to a subdirectory of your working directory called redownloads
  • If you need more options, you can run ./redownload-cli-windows --help and it will print the help to the console.

Help! Help!
