About The Project

Warp is a powerful and versatile cross-platform download manager. With its advanced technology, Warp has the ability to accelerate your download speeds by up to 10 times, revolutionizing the way you obtain files on any operating system.

Platform Support

Windows users: Binaries are provided via Releases and Scoop. Core functionality works, but Windows-specific bugs should be reported via issues.

Getting Started

Although WarpDL can be installed using various package managers, but you can also build it manually.

Prerequisites

You will need the following things for building warpdl binary:

• This Repository - clone it using the following command: git clone https://github.com/warpdl/warpdl
• Go v1.18+ - You can download it from go.dev/dl.

Installation

Quick Install (Recommended)

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/warpdl/warpdl/dev/scripts/install.sh | sh

This automatically:

• Linux (Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora/RHEL): Sets up Cloudsmith repo for auto-updates + systemd service
• macOS/BSD: Downloads binary directly (suggests Homebrew)
• Windows (Git Bash): Downloads binary directly (suggests Scoop)

Alternative Methods

brew install warpdl/tap/warpdl

scoop bucket add warpdl https://github.com/warpdl/scoop-bucket
scoop install warpdl

curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/warpdl/warpdl/setup.deb.sh' | sudo bash
sudo apt install warpdl

curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/warpdl/warpdl/setup.rpm.sh' | sudo bash
sudo dnf install warpdl

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/warpdl/warpdl/dev/scripts/install.sh | sh -s -- --no-repo

xattr -cr /path/to/warpdl

Optional: Enable Systemd User Service

WarpDL can optionally run as a systemd user service for auto-start on login:

# Reload systemd user daemon to discover new service
systemctl --user daemon-reload

# Enable and start the service
systemctl --user enable --now warpdl.service

# Check status
systemctl --user status warpdl.service

# View logs
journalctl --user -u warpdl.service

For servers (start at boot without login):

sudo loginctl enable-linger $USER

Note: The systemd service is optional. WarpDL daemon auto-starts when needed for regular CLI usage.

Uninstallation

The WarpDL daemon runs in the background to manage downloads. Before uninstalling, stop the daemon first.

• Homebrew:

  brew uninstall warpdl
  

  Note: The daemon is automatically stopped during uninstallation.

• Scoop:

  scoop uninstall warpdl
  

  Note: The daemon is automatically stopped during uninstallation.

• Script/Manual Installation:

  curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/warpdl/warpdl/dev/scripts/uninstall.sh | sh
  

• Complete Manual Cleanup:

  # Stop the daemon
  warpdl stop-daemon
  
  # Remove the binary (path may vary)
  sudo rm $(which warpdl)
  
  # Remove configuration and download data
  rm -rf ~/.config/warpdl
  

Usage

Use warpdl help <command> for information about various commands.
