wheel (GitLab) wheel (GHA via nightly.link)

Just an abstraction layer around various backends for downloading content more efficiently than requests can. That assummes multi-stream downloading.

In scope - everything that would have a simple abstraction "URI -> file/dir":

• https://
• .torrent
• magnet:

Out of scope - everything that doesn't have such a simple abstraction (see fetchers and maybe other libs mentioned there for them):

• have concept of a version:

  • package managers
  • VCSs/SCMs

Currently implemented backends:

• aria2c CLI tool.
