- How to download from a magnet link with aria2?
To download from a magnet link with aria2, you can simply pass the magnet link as an argument to aria2c:
aria2c "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678"
In this example, we’re downloading a file from a magnet link that starts with magnet:?xt=urn:btih: followed by a unique identifier that identifies the file being downloaded.
Note that aria2 downloads files using the BitTorrent protocol by default when downloading from a magnet link. If you want to force aria2 to download files using a specific protocol, you can specify it using the --bt-require-crypto=false flag for unencrypted connections and --bt-require-crypto=true for encrypted connections.
