通过终端下载.sh文件

Question

I am looking for a way to download https://www.anaconda.com/download/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh through terminal; now don't laugh just yet, there are some provisos.

I don't have root privileges.

 $wget https://www.anaconda.com/download/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

does not work because this will not download the .sh file it will download an HTML that will cause issues with running it in bash.

I have also tried

 $curl -o Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh https://www.anaconda.com/download/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

and it does not work; it produces this output

 % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                             Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--     0

and

$curl https://www.anaconda.com/download/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

which produces no output.

Overall I have no idea where to go from here and I was wondering if any of you had some ideas.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

you have to use instead:

wget https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

the https://www.anaconda.com/download/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh is not the repo

Answer 2

This is the URL from the Anaconda website .

Try this wget https://repo.anaconda.com/archive/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

READ the script, then pass it to bash. Even if it is from a trusted source always read .sh scripts you download before executing them with your shell.
