How to download all files (but not HTML) from a website using wget?

How to use wget and get all the files from website?

I need all files except the webpage files like HTML, PHP, ASP etc.

To filter for specific file extensions:

wget -A pdf,jpg -m -p -E -k -K -np http://site/path/

Or, if you prefer long option names:

wget --accept pdf,jpg --mirror --page-requisites --adjust-extension --convert-links --backup-converted --no-parent http://site/path/

This will mirror the site, but the files without jpg or pdf extension will be automatically removed.

This downloaded the entire website for me:

wget --no-clobber --convert-links --random-wait -r -p -E -e robots=off -U mozilla http://site/path/

wget -m -p -E -k -K -np http://site/path/

man page will tell you what those options do.

wget will only follow links, if there is no link to a file from the index page, then wget will not know about its existence, and hence not download it. ie. it helps if all files are linked to in web pages or in directory indexes.

I was trying to download zip files linked from Omeka's themes page - pretty similar task. This worked for me:

wget -A zip -r -l 1 -nd http://omeka.org/add-ons/themes/

• -A: only accept zip files
• -r: recurse
• -l 1: one level deep (ie, only files directly linked from this page)
• -nd: don't create a directory structure, just download all the files into this directory.

All the answers with -k, -K, -E etc options probably haven't really understood the question, as those as for rewriting HTML pages to make a local structure, renaming .php files and so on. Not relevant.

To literally get all files except .html etc:

wget -R html,htm,php,asp,jsp,js,py,css -r -l 1 -nd http://yoursite.com

You may try:

wget --user-agent=Mozilla --content-disposition --mirror --convert-links -E -K -p http://example.com/

Also you can add:

-A pdf,ps,djvu,tex,doc,docx,xls,xlsx,gz,ppt,mp4,avi,zip,rar

to accept the specific extensions, or to reject only specific extensions:

-R html,htm,asp,php

or to exclude the specific areas:

-X "search*,forum*"

If the files are ignored for robots (e.g. search engines), you've to add also: -e robots=off
