curl-progress

#!/usr/bin/env bash
#
# Wraps curl with a custom-drawn progress bar. Use it just like curl:
#
#     $ curl-progress -O http://example.com/file.tar.gz
#     $ curl-progress http://example.com/file.tar.gz > file.tar.gz
#
# All arguments to the program are passed directly to curl. Define your
# custom progress bar in the `print_progress` function.

# At a high level, we will show our own progress bar by forking curl off
# into the background, passing a temporary file to the `--trace-ascii`
# option, filtering and parsing the trace output line by line, and then
# drawing the progress bar to the screen when data is received.

# Tell bash to abort if any command exits with a non-zero status code.

# We want to print the progress bar to stderr, but only if stderr is a
# terminal. To avoid a conditional every time we print something, we can
# instead print everything to file descriptor 4, and then point that file
# descriptor to the right place: stderr if it's a TTY, or /dev/null
# otherwise.

Hello, I added download support, download/upload speed meters and ETA meter to this script. I also de-bounced it so it only prints the bar 10 times per second. https://gist.github.com/szero/cd496ca43df4b871df75818ebcc40233
