[\fIMODULE_OPTIONS\fP]... \fIURL\fP|\fIFILE\fP... .SH DESCRIPTION .B plowprobe is a command-line tool designed for retrieving metadata from file-sharing download links. Information are printed on stdout (only alive links). Provided links can also be downloaded with plowdown(1). .\" **************************************************************************** .\" * Options * .\" **************************************************************************** .SH OPTIONS .SS Common options .TP .BI -i, " " --interface= IFACE If your machine has several network interfaces, force using \fIIFACE\fR interface. .TP .BI " " " " --printf= FORMAT Print results (on stdout) in a given format (for each non-dead link). Default format string is \fI"%F%u%n"\fR. Interpreted sequences are: .RS .TP \fI%%\fR raw % character .TP \fI%c\fR probe function return status (0 for success, 13 for dead link, see list below) .TP \fI%f\fR filename (can be empty string) .TP \fI%F\fR empty if \fB%f\fR is empty, or alias to "\fB# %f%n\fR". .TP \fI%h\fR filehash (can be empty string if not available). Usually MD5 or SHA1. If hoster supports several algorithms, the longest digest is used. .TP \fI%i\fR file identifier (can be empty string if not available). Usually included in input URL. .TP \fI%m\fR module name .TP \fI%n\fR newline .TP \fI%s\fR filesize (positive integer) in bytes (can be empty string if not available). Note: It's often approximative. .TP \fI%t\fR tabulation character .TP \fI%T\fR file timestamp (can be empty string if not available). Unix epoch time is preferred. .TP \fI%u\fR download (source) url .TP \fI%U\fR same as \fB%u\fR but url is escaped for JSON usage .TP \fI%v\fR alternate or refactored download url. This can be for example fixing primary hostname (to avoid HTTP 301 redirection), or force HTTPS protocol. \ If not available, alias to \fB%u\fR. .TP \fI%V\fR same as \fB%v\fR but url is escaped for JSON usage .P Note: Metadata are often not fully available from hosters nor implemented by all modules. .SS Logging options .TP .BI -v, " " --verbose= LEVEL Set output verbosity level: .RS \fB0\fR none, .RE .RS \fB1\fR errors, .RE .RS \fB2\fR notice (default behavior), .RE .RS \fB3\fR debug, .RE .RS \fB4\fR report (very noisy, log HTML pages). .RE .TP .B -q, --quiet Alias for \fB-v0\fR. Do not print any debug messages. .SS Miscellaneous options .TP .B " " --no-color Disables log messages (stderr only) output coloring. .TP .B " " --follow If no module is found for link, follow HTTP redirects (curl \-L). Default is disabled. .TP .B " " --get-module Echo module name for each URL and exit. Faster than \fB--printf=%m\fR. Useful for wrappers. .TP .B " " --no-curlrc Do not use curl config file (~/.curlrc). .TP .BI " " " " --curlrc= FILE Force using an alternate curl configuration file. Replaces ~/.curlrc if it exists. This option has no effect when .B --no\-curlrc is defined. .TP .B " " --no-plowsharerc Do not consider any configuration file. .TP .BI " " " " --plowsharerc= FILE Force using an alternate configuration file (instead of per-user or systemwide plowshare.conf). This option has no effect when .B --no\-plowsharerc is defined. .TP .B " " --modules Display all supported module names (one per line) and exit. Useful for wrappers. .SS Generic program information .TP .B -h, --help Display this help and exit. .TP .B -H, --longhelp Display complete help (with module options) and exit. .TP .B " " --version Output version information and exit. .\" **************************************************************************** .\" * Modules options * .\" **************************************************************************** .SH "MODULE OPTIONS" .P There is none yet! .\" **************************************************************************** .\" * Files * .\" **************************************************************************** .SH "FILES" .TP .I ~/.config/plowshare/plowshare.conf This is the per-user configuration file. .TP .I /etc/plowshare.conf Systemwide configuration file. .PP The file format is described in .BR plowshare.conf (5). .TP .I ~/.config/plowshare/modules.d/ User directory considered when searching for modules at startup (plowprobe will try to open \fB~/.config/plowshare/modules.d/*/config\fR). One file per module (hoster). .\" **************************************************************************** .\" * Environment Variables * .\" **************************************************************************** .SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES" The following environment variables may affect plowprobe: .TP .I HOME Search for user configuration directory in \fB~/.config/plowshare\fR (see FILES section above). If found, \fB~/.curlrc\fR will be used (use \fB--no-curlrc\fR to disable it). .TP .I PLOWSHARE_CURL Specifies an alternate curl command (\fB$PATH\fR search is considered). If not defined, \fBcurl\fR is used. .TP .I XDG_CONFIG_HOME The directory to store user configuration files. If not defined, \fB~/.config\fR is assumed. .\" **************************************************************************** .\" * Exit codes * .\" **************************************************************************** .SH "EXIT CODES" Possible exit codes are: .IP 0 Success. Folder contain one or several files. .IP 1 Fatal error. Upstream site updated or unexpected result. .IP 2 No available module (provided URL is not supported). .IP 3 Network error. Mostly curl related. .IP 8 System generic error. .IP 10 Link alive but temporarily unavailable. .IP 11 Link alive but requires a password. .IP 12 Link alive but requires some authentication (private or premium link). .IP 13 Link is dead. .IP 15 Unknown command line parameter or incompatible options. .PP If .B plowprobe is invoked with multiple links and one or several errors occur, the first error code is returned added with 100. .\" **************************************************************************** .\" * Authors / See Also * .\" **************************************************************************** .SH AUTHORS Plowshare was initially written by Arnau Sanchez.
