You might have googled a software for downloading a specified website or directory on either Windows or Linux platform . Yes, a bunch of tools can do this for you. Actually, we can do this by using a simple command, wget, on Linux platform. It is highly customizable, just a powerful crawler. You will find it fantastic and really cool. Let me just show you how!

wget

–recursive

–no-clobber

–page-requisites

–html-extension

–convert-links

–restrict-file-names=windows

–domains techstroke.com

–no-parent

www.techstroke.com/Windows/

The command above let you download the “windows” directory at the domain of “techstroke.com” recursively, starting from the url  www.techstroke.com/Windows/

How do you like it? Hah, really cool?

Finally, let me explain a bit more about the parameters. Of course, you can refer to its documentation.

The options are:

–recursive: download the entire Web site.

–domains-techstroke.com: don’t follow links outside techstroke.com.

–no-parent: don’t follow links outside the directory /Windows/.

–page-requisites: get all the elements that compose the page (images, CSS and so on).

–html-extension: save files with the .html extension.

–convert-links: convert links so that they work locally, off-line.

–restrict-file-names=windows: modify filenames so that they will work in Windows as well.

–no-clobber: don’t overwrite any existing files (used in case the download is interrupted and

resumed).
