GOAL:
Can "Curl" be used to download files from the ESD site?
GOAL:
What is the command syntax for using the curl utility to download files from ESD site?
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
OpenEdge Management
OpenEdge Replication
FIX:
Yes, it is possible to use curl to download Products from the OpenEdge ESD (Electronic Software Distribution) SubscribeNet site. We assume that anyone wanting to use curl understands the curl command line options but here are two simple examples of authenticating and downloading using curl over FTP.
Command Syntax:
curl -u loginname:password ftp://esd.subscribenet.com/patch/file_name (would result in the file being displayed on the terminal screen or where ever standard out is being redirected)
curl -u loginname:password -o outfilename ftp://esd.subscribenet.com/path/file_name (would result in the file being downloaded to the filename you directed output to using the "-o" command line parameter)
