aria2r 0.9.1

aria2r
In the spirit of aria2c and aria2p, aria2r is a command line utility to add downloads to a (r)emote, or (r)unning instance of aria2.
While aria2 is a great download manager, one of its biggest drawbacks is the inability to easily add additional downloads when run as a daemon. While it is possible to add downloads through one of the several available GUIs, you are limited to adding one download at a time, and scrolling through seemingly endless options to find the ones you want to change.
The goal of aria2r is to provide a familiar interface for quickly and easily adding a single or multiple downloads to aria2 without having to restart the service. As much as possible, aria2r strives to match the interface, design, and verbiage used by aria2c. Any notable divergences come with an explanation behind the decision.

Installation
aria2r is written in Python and can be installed through pip.
pip install aria2r --user

Examples
Basic example of adding a single download to aria2 running on the same machine
aria2r --urls "http://host/file.zip"

Download a file from 2 mirrors
aria2r -u "http://host/file.zip" "http://mirror/file.zip"

Add downloads to a remote server listening on a non-default port
aria2r --host 10.0.0.1 --port 8660 "http://host/file.zip"

Add multiple downloads through an aria2 input file
aria2r -i /path/to/input-file.txt

Command Line Options
usage: cli.py [-h] [-c CONFIG] [-u [URLS [URLS ...]]] [-i INPUT_FILE] [-d]
[--host HOST] [--port PORT] [--rpc-secret RPC_SECRET] [-v] [-q]

Add downloads to a running instance of aria2c. Given one or more URLS (or an
INPUT_FILE in the same format as aria2c input files), aria2r will use aria2's
RPC interface to add the downloads (with options) to a running instance of
aria2c. It is mandatory to supply either the URLS or INPUT_FILE argument, but
it is an error to provide both.

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit

-c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
config file path

-u [URLS [URLS ...]], --urls [URLS [URLS ...]]
One or more urls to a file. All given urls must be
mirrors to the same file and be http/https protocol.
Torrent, Magnet, and Metalink files are not supported.

-i INPUT_FILE, --input_file INPUT_FILE
Path to an aria2c formatted input file

-d, --dry-run Read the input file or urls and build the request, but
don't send it to the aria2 instance.

--host HOST The ip or fully qualified domain name where aria2 is
located. (Default: localhost)

--port PORT The port that aria2 listens on. (Default: 8600)

--rpc-secret RPC_SECRET
Secret authorization token set for the aria2 rpc
interface.

-v, --verbose Increase level of output.

-q, --quiet Decrease level of output.
