SSH download manager

Is anyone aware of a download manager like transmission.
Basically, I am looking for
The ability to remote download files into my VPS directly from chrome. I still want to use my VPS connection to download these files like transmission is able to.

Where are you downloading files from? Some sites tie the download URL to the requesting IP so if you get the download link generated in chrome, your VPS may not be able to use it.
wget -i "file_list"
I already have that problem solved. If that is the case I just use my VPS and VPN. So the IP of my home computer matches.
Right now my actions are
1. Get the URL
2. Connect to VPN through Openvpn if needed
3. Download the file through command line with aria2c URL.
What I would like is
1. Get a link. Just click on it.
2. Through some process have my file downloaded directly with my VPS. Skipping the need to copy the URL.
Or use my home connection.
Are you trying to download torrents or the files directly?
The files directly from chrome.
I don't know if this is even possible. Thought I would ask
Maybe consider installing a desktop environment on the VPS itself and use Chromium or Firefox via VNC?
I was about to give up on solving this for now, but I may have found something
I found something that seems to do want I want for android.

Finding something for windows shouldn't too hard.
I don't know if there's a solution that does exactly what you want, but FoxyProxy and a socks proxy may be more convenient than a VPN. You can switch between the proxy and your normal connection fairly quickly, or alternatively set up some pattern matching to do it automatically if your downloads are from known domains.
I've typed a solution for you but for some reason can't submit it here (endless Cloudflare error..).
Anyway here it is:

(Hope mods can fix the problem)
copy the link, open terminal and type : wget <link>
dont forget to put "space" character between "wget" and <link>
i assume you want remote download to vps via web access
then i suggest rapidleech
If you want to download files on your vps you could just fork wget to background like so:
With it's default retry settings wget'll most likely download the files, while you're free to do whatever you like, not having to have the shell open. If this fails you''l have to specify retry times and timeout values.
i think you are looking for aria2-webui
Really does sound like you're just looking for wget, you'll still need to copy the URL and send it through SSH but you wont need to download it locally and then upload it to your VPS which it kinda? sounds like you're doing at the moment.
Thanks this is the last piece I need. I like to put my solutions online. Just in case someone else finds this thread and needs help.
This will allow you to send downloads directly to the VPS via aria2
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/aria2c-integration/edcakfpjaobkpdfpicldlccdffkhpbfk
The settings is your VPS IP address and usually 6800 for the port.
I imagine there's something for other browsers. I also found something for android as well. None of these programs talk about remotely downloading, but that is what they all do.
So the setting is probably something like
http://IP:6800/jsonrpc
I think all you need to do is add these links to your config files
which for me is located in .aria2 in the /root/
I may have made this myself, I don't remember the name of the file is aria.conf
enable-rpc=true
rpc-allow-origin-all=true
rpc-listen-all=true
So add that and just run aria2c so it is listening.
Or you can run aria2c with those arguments
If everything is working when you click on download via aria2c it will show up on your Command Line program that something is downloading.
@Cece I like that program you suggested because it easy to miss errors on the commandline.
It seems like it will show what downloads have completed during a session, and hopefully what ones have failed.
==============================================
P.S the integration extension only has 3,815 users. So I suppose it is a very niche audience
@farsighter
I don't know how long it took you to type that up, but I am going to keep that as a backup.
So I have to enter this command one time only and ALL files in that list will be downloaded?
Thank you!
jdownloader support headless mode
then you can control it in their web-ui, my.jdownloader.org
