kandi X-RAY | apt-metalink Summary

apt-metalink is a Python library typically used in Nginx, Ubuntu, Debian applications. apt-metalink has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. However apt-metalink build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.

apt-metalink makes apt-get faster by downloading Debian/Ubuntu packages from several servers concurrently. apt-metalink uses python3-apt to interface apt infrastructure and aria2 for download backend. Metalink is used to feed package list to aria2. If multiple debian mirror is specified in /etc/apt/sources.list, packages are usually available in more than one server. apt-get only uses 1 URI to download package in sequential manner. apt-metalink uses the advantage of availability of these mirrors. apt-metalink establishes 1 connection per mirror and downloads packages from all mirrors in sources.list. This is as if running apt-get with different mirror and mutually exclusive subset of packages at the same time. This parallelism shortens whole download time. The difference of parallel transfer and sequential transfer gets bigger when the number of packages to download increases. The connection to the remote server is reused across the download, so it is very efficient.
