You can use the Curl command to download a file and save it with a specific name using the -o
or --output
option followed by the name you want to give to the downloaded file.
Here's the basic syntax:
curl -o [file_name] [URL]
In this case, [file_name]
is the name you want to give to your downloaded file and [URL]
is the URL of the file you want to download.
For example, if you want to download a file from http://example.com/myfile.pdf
and save it as my_downloaded_file.pdf
, you would use the following command:
curl -o my_downloaded_file.pdf http://example.com/myfile.pdf
This command will download the file from the provided URL and save it as my_downloaded_file.pdf
in the current directory.
You can also use the -O
(capital O) option which will use the original file name from the URL. Here's how to do it:
curl -O [URL]
For example:
curl -O http://example.com/myfile.pdf
This command will download the file from the provided URL and save it as myfile.pdf
in the current directory.
Remember to replace http://example.com/myfile.pdf
with the URL of the file you want to download.
