CurlAxel - PHP file download accelerator

[Gaurav]

@jockerhacker: look into pyLoad. Its meant specially for one-click hosters. The documentation isn't great enough though.

[jokerhacker]

that seems to be great, comparing to aria2, it's easier to use, but yet not advanced as aria2
im confused now

I'm also having troubles deciding with what to go
atm pyload seems the best, but I lack python experience.
Altough it shouldn't be too hard

waiting fileshare hosting support!

I just had a major breakthrough, so we've gotten a step closer to integrating this with RL. I managed to to get RL to "echo" the data needed for CurlAxel to do it's job. At the moment I am trying to get in contact with JokerHacker because I need some help integrating cookies in this script.

Here's an example of the data I've managed to get from RL:

URL: /file/Rq2MbwF/fCiiHoqngTBgddXZh***********IdyIIFNjbiFp_JM7o./Magic_Numbers_UK_2011-10S370_HQ.pdf

Host: fs5001dm.fileserve.com

Referer: http://www.fileserve.com/file/R*****/Magic_Numbers_UK_2011-10S370_HQ.pdf 

Cookie: PHPSESSID=r29*********466; cookie=467U***********b2ZZAoKh; Rq2MbwF=IfQKt****gsJc%3D

For the people wanting to know exactly at what stage we are, here you go:

1. CurlAxel class
   
2. Getting the needed information from RL
3. Do some modifications to CurlAxel (Add cookies, and some RL variables)
4. Sending the data to CurlAxel + Disabling original RL transload
5. Getting CurlAxel to output the pogress
6. Getting RL to output CurlAxel's pogress.

If you think you can help us with that, thus not testing, please send me a PM!

you would need to integrate the progress bar code to curlaxel...

From the point of post data to the get info and cookie for download it all has to be included into the curlaxel source so once it hits the transload page it can just download the files with the cached information..

[CuraHack]

Anyway, I found out something interesting, if I download this 100mb file the filesize becomes 500MB on my server, although the script has been working fine using a 1GB test file, this smaller file is giving problems. This should be checked...

May i ask why you are implementing it though?
Curl Progressing also requires PHP 5.3 or +

Yes, its true. I have checked this with ~250MB , ~400MB files. Effect was the same as above. First parts are downloading fine - stops when they are the size what it should be (~250MB / 5 (if 5 parts)). But size of the last part is like the whole file [~250MB].

Why not do it if I can? Wouldn't it be great to improve the download speeds in RL?
And if PHP 5.3 is required, then so be it, why would you let that stop you?
