So you are sick and tyred of downloading different files to your computer and then uploading it to your server !?
Then the Wget shell comand is perfect for you !
- Log into your shell account on your server by using Putty.
Log in by using your log in name and password , that will get you into root , choose and go to the directory you want to upload your program by using the cd comand :
like this :
cd /home/yourdirectory/thedownloaddirectory
That’ll get you into the directory and then just use wget ; for example lets say we wanna download and install php-nuke into this directory , so just get the direct url of the zip file and use:
wget http://phpnuke.org/files/PHP-Nuke-7.2.zip
Voila, that’ll upload the zipped version of php-nuke onto your server , now you will just need to unzip the file by using this shell comand :
tar -zxvf PHP-Nuke-7.2.zip
Great isn’t it , the whole process just took you 2 minutes instead of downloading it onto your pc (30 min) and uploading it onto the server (1hours)
