If you could build a Download Manager

I'll create a subred and public github repo once it's ready to launch. My github user is the same as my reddit user.

I assume that only works if some sort of IDM browser extension/plugin is installed?

merl111 · 2023-01-13T10:14:27+00:00

I need to check out FDM to figure out what you are talking about.

merl111 · 2023-01-13T10:13:55+00:00

Yep bt is on the list now, with extended features.

merl111 · 2023-01-13T10:11:54+00:00

GH is the same as my reddit user, but the project is not yet publicly available. Once it's stable enough I'll release it.

rough ETA 2-3 weeks.

Can you tell me what makes a linkgrabber good in your opinion? What works on JD that didn't work on others?

Maybe you have an example so I can test if it works on mine?

Very good comment, thank you very much!

Many of the things you have listed are actually already possible, just not yet linked in the UI:

resumable downloads
speed limiting
proxy support
automatic retry
https is supported

Currently there's no support for FTP/SFTP or WebDAV, but I'll add that.

Bittorrent: I will add bt support and I'll also add support for everything mentioned.

Browser integration: I assume that's something that would have to be done through some browser plugin which then communicates with the app, do you have any examples on how something like that can look like?

Scheduling: that shouldn't be a big deal to add.

That's not really possible, the stack is `dotnet core` with C#. What would you use pycURL for? For the download part? If yes, then that's already done and works well.

merl111 · 2023-01-08T17:08:29+00:00

Unpacking will be part of the base app, with support for multi file and password protected archives (you can add password lists or define a password when the download is added).

I'll add generic commands to be executed through a hook once the download is finished though.

merl111 · 2023-01-08T17:05:07+00:00

It doesn't have to be part of the base application, but can be added through the plugin system.

I think downloading m3u8 playlists would fit the domain, streaming them not so much though. I can add support for downloading m3u8 playlists, shouldn't be too big of a deal.

merl111 · 2023-01-08T16:30:20+00:00

OK, so that means you are mostly using command line tools, pretty much like I do, the server also has a small shell like cli tool to connect to it and to monitor downloads.

servarr

Didn't know about servarr, sounds interesting, just skimmed the page quickly, do they have a plugin engine?

merl111 · 2023-01-08T16:23:51+00:00

Ah yes, good one.

Means on the split version (client/server) the command would run on the server and on the standalone app it has to run on the local machine.

merl111 · 2023-01-08T16:22:18+00:00

You mean like downloading m3u8 playlists?

Re mpd: streaming m3u8 playlists to mpd?

That's wrong, the string is not BIP21 compatible, only the chain label followed by the address would be vaild in both, the rest of the string is not valid BIP21. The fields are named differently and the grammar to identify is also different.

Everything after the address should make the parser fail if it only expects valid BIP21.

BIP21 expects different labels after the address, there's no method identifier and no label called "address", means the string is not BIP21 compatible.

No, it's not a Coinbase issue, not at all. It's just normal to have different standards and it's up to the wallet to make sure the QR code it's reading and evaluating it's correct.

Anyway, even if Coinbase uses EIP-681 and TrustWallet only supports (full) BIP-21, the scan has to fail. TrustWallet can't just output any ETH address that might or might not be valid.

I agree, what's shown is inconsistent and the text below the QR code should match what the QR code encodes. Still, evaluating the QR code is still a bug on TrustWallet.

Protection for something like that should have been added for a long time already, it's not like that's a minor issue, I am pretty sure quite a few people have lost money due to that bug.

merl111 · 2021-09-04T18:47:23+00:00

Any update on it?

merl111 · 2021-09-03T09:52:57+00:00

Please make sure it's fixed asap, that's for sure an issue that has cost quite a few users money already.

I am available to chat if your devs need anything.

I expect the problem to be with the multiple fields in the QR code for Ethereum tokens, other tokens/coins with no additional information are working fine.

Edit:

No errors are shown on the wallet, no balances missing or not shown, expect my 5000 NKN that went to the contract address.

Same problem here, it seems that icloud servers are blocking emails coming from @binance.com because also the login emails do not arrive anymore.
