How to download an entire directory and subdirectories using wget?

Question

You may use this in shell:

wget -r --no-parent http://abc.tamu.edu/projects/tzivi/repository/revisions/2/raw/tzivi/

The Parameters are:

-r     //recursive Download

and

--no-parent // Don´t download something from the parent directory

If you don't want to download the entire content, you may use:

-l1 just download the directory (tzivi in your case)

-l2 download the directory and all level 1 subfolders ('tzivi/something' but not 'tivizi/somthing/foo')  

And so on. If you insert no -l option, wget will use -l 5 automatically.

If you insert a -l 0 you´ll download the whole Internet, because wget will follow every link it finds.

You can use this in a shell:

wget -r -nH --cut-dirs=7 --reject="index.html*" \
      http://abc.tamu.edu/projects/tzivi/repository/revisions/2/raw/tzivi/

The Parameters are:

-r recursively download

-nH (--no-host-directories) cuts out hostname 

--cut-dirs=X (cuts out X directories)

This link just gave me the best answer:

$ wget --no-clobber --convert-links --random-wait -r -p --level 1 -E -e robots=off -U mozilla http://base.site/dir/

Worked like a charm.

wget -r --no-parent URL --user=username --password=password

the last two options are optional if you have the username and password for downloading, otherwise no need to use them.

You can also see more options in the link https://www.howtogeek.com/281663/how-to-use-wget-the-ultimate-command-line-downloading-tool/

use the command

wget -m www.ilanni.com/nexus/content/

you can also use this command :

wget --mirror -pc --convert-links -P ./your-local-dir/ http://www.your-website.com

so that you get the exact mirror of the website you want to download

try this working code (30-08-2021):

!wget --no-clobber --convert-links --random-wait -r -p --level 1 -E -e robots=off --adjust-extension -U mozilla "yourweb directory with in quotations"
