Rewrite

Rewrite is a simple wrapper around wget or file download cli. The sole purpose is to substitute the download url with an alternative url.

Usage

The basic usage command can be executed as rewrite <config json> <wget including args> <url>.

This makes the following assumptions about the passed parameters:

• The first parameter is the fully qualified path to the config file location.
• The last parameter is the url

Sample config file

{
  "urls": {
    "https://ftp.pcre.org/pub/pcre/pcre-8.44.tar.bz2": "https://sourceforge.net/projects/pcre/files/pcre/8.44/pcre-8.44.tar.bz2"
  }
}
