  1. Open your SSH client and log in to the Windows server.
  2. Navigate to the directory where you want to download the file.
  3. Use the "curl" command followed by the URL of the file you want to download.
  4. curl -LJO
    1. example location:[
    2. curl -LJO https://github.com/Fictiverse/bark/releases/download/0.2/Bark_WebUI.7z
  5. Press Enter to start the download. The file will be downloaded to your current directory on the server.

what does -LJ0 mean?

  • -L or --location: Follow HTTP(S) redirects. This flag tells curl to automatically follow any HTTP redirects that the server may send, allowing it to download the file from the correct URL even if the server responds with a redirect.

  • -J or --remote-header-name: Use the remote header name for the downloaded file. This flag tells curl to use the suggested filename in the Content-Disposition header, which is typically set by the server when you download a file. In your case, the server sets the filename to Bark_WebUI.7z, and this flag tells curl to use that filename instead of just saving the file with a generic name like download.

  • -O or --remote-name: Use the remote file name for the downloaded file. This flag tells curl to save the downloaded file with the same name as it has on the server.

So in summary, -LJO tells curl to follow redirects and use the filename suggested by the server, and to save the file with the same name it has on the server.
