pymatris 0.0.8

Parallel download manager for HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/SFTP protocols.

Pymatris 📂

Parallel file downloader for HTTP/HTTPS, FTP and SFTP protocols, built using Python.

Installation

pip install pymatris

Usage

• Initialize Downloader

from pymatris import Downloader

dl = Downloader()

• Enqueue file to download

dl.enqueue_file("https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet", path="./")

• Start downloading files

dl.download()

• View results

result = dl.download()

Under the hood, pymatris.Downloader uses a global queue to manage the download tasks. pymatris.Downloader.enqueue_file() will add url to download queue, and pymatris.Downloder.download() will download the files in parallel. Pymatris uses asyncio to download files in parallel, with asychronous I/O operations using aiofiles, hence enabling faster downloads.

Results and Error Handling

pymatris.Downloader.download() returns a Results object, which is a list of the filenames that have been downloaded. Results object has two attributes, success and errors.

success is a list of named tuples, where each named tuple contains .path the filepath and .url the url.

errors is a list of named tuples, where each named tuple contains .filepath_partial the intended filepath, .url the url, .exception an Exception or aiohttp.ClientResponse that occurred during download.

Example Usage

from main.py

from pymatris import Downloader
urls = [
    "https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet",
    "ftp://bob:bob@192.168.1.6:20/tesfile.txt",
    "https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet",
]



dm = Downloader()

for url in urls:
    dm.enqueue_file(url, path="./")

results = dm.download()


print(results)
>> Success:
>> pricecatcher_2022-01.csv https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-01.csv
>> pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet

>> Errors:
>> (ftp://bob:bob@192.168.1.6:20/tesfile.txt,
>> ConnectionRefusedError(61, "Connect call failed ('192.168.1.6', 20)"))

CLI

Pymatris also provides a command line interface to download files in parallel. In your terminal, run the following command to download files in parallel.

# Insert single url as argument
pymatris https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet 

# Or multiple urls 
pymatris https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-02.parquet https://storage.data.gov.my/pricecatcher/pricecatcher_2022-03.parquet

  $ pymatris --help
  usage: pymatris [-h] [--max-parallel MAX_PARALLEL] [--max-splits MAX_SPLITS]
                [--overwrite] [--quiet] [--dir DIR] [--show-errors SHOW_ERRORS]
                [--timeouts TIMEOUTS] [--max-tries MAX_TRIES]
                URLS [URLS ...]

Arguments

To provide path to save files, use --dir option. By default files will be saved in current directory.

pymatris --dir "./" <urls>

To overwrite existing files, use --overwrite option. By default, files will not be overwritten.

pymatris --overwrite <urls>

Assuming your have "pricecatcher_2022-01.parquet" file in your current directory, running above command will overwrite the existing file. During download, Pymatris creates tempfile to download files, if download is interrupted, rest assured that your existing files are safe, and tempfiles will be deleted.

To configure number of parallel downloads, use --max-parallel option. By default, 5 parallel downloads are allowed.

pymatris --max-parallel 10 <urls>

Pymatris uses asyncio to download files in parallel. By default, 5 files are downloaded in parallel. You can increase or decrease the number of parallel downloads.

To configure number of parallel download parts per file, use --max-splits option. By default, 5 parts are downloaded in parallel for each file.

pymatris --max-splits 10 <urls>

This is only available for HTTP/HTTPS and SFTP protocols. Currently, FTP protocol does not support multipart downloads.

To configure number of retries for failed downloads, use --max-tries option. By default, 5 retries are allowed.

pymatris --max-tries 10 <urls>

To hide progress bar, use --quiet option. By default, progress bar is shown.

pymatris --quiet <urls>
