Juggling a browser download, a torrent and a magnet link in different programs? The free, open-source Gopeed handles HTTP, torrent, magnet and ed2k downloads in one client, and offers browser-link capture, extensions, and tools for remote task management.
Which download links can Gopeed handle?
Gopeed supports HTTP and HTTPS files, BitTorrent tasks, magnet links, and ed2k links. A browser extension can capture download links from a browser and send them to the desktop client, so tasks do not have to be added by copying each address manually.
How do extensions expand Gopeed?
Gopeed has a JavaScript extension system for adding download sources beyond its built-in protocol support. One example is retrieving model files from HuggingFace. The HuggingFace workflow includes resume support and automatic file verification.
- Extensions can also target cloud storage and batch downloads.
- A community extension store provides a place to find extensions.
Can downloads be managed remotely?
Gopeed provides a RESTful API for automation and integration, along with a web interface for managing tasks remotely. Proxy settings include HTTP, SOCKS5, and the system proxy, which can route downloads through a chosen network.
