HTTP File Downloader (python, written by Claude Code)

Claude Code wrote this python project from the task below. It installed and ran on a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine as written.

Task given to the agent:

TASK: HTTP File Downloader

Write a program that downloads files from HTTP/HTTPS URLs with support for resumable downloads, progress tracking, concurrent downloads, and checksum verification.

FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Accept one or more URLs as command-line arguments
- Display a progress bar during download showing: percentage complete, bytes downloaded, total size, download speed, and estimated time remaining
- Support resumable downloads via HTTP Range headers: if a download is interrupted, restarting with the same URL and output path should resume from where it stopped via --resume flag
- Support concurrent downloading of multiple files via --parallel flag with configurable thread count (--threads, default 4)
- Support downloading all URLs listed in a text file (one URL per line) via --list flag
- Verify downloaded file integrity via --checksum flag accepting algorithm:hash format (e.g., --checksum sha256:abc123...)
- Support custom HTTP headers via --header flag (e.g., --header "Authorization: Bearer token")
- Support following HTTP redirects (up to 10 hops) and report the final URL
- Set connection timeout via --timeout flag (default 30 seconds) and retry failed downloads via --retries flag (default 3) with exponential backoff
- Save files to a directory specified by --output flag (default: current directory), using the filename from the URL or Content-Disposition header
- Print a download summary to console: file name, size, time taken, average speed, and checksum verification result
- If no URLs are given, download a set of sample public domain text files from Project Gutenberg, display progress for each, and print a summary table
- Handle errors: DNS resolution failures, SSL certificate errors, HTTP 4xx/5xx responses, disk full, and network timeouts

Create a complete Python project for a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine with only Python 3.10+ installed. Include:
- Source code
- requirements.txt with all dependencies (direct and transitive) pinned to exact versions
- README.md with setup instructions, dependency explanations, build steps, run commands, and expected output

# HTTP File Downloader (Python - Trial 1)

An HTTP file downloader featuring progress bars, resumable downloads, concurrent transfers, and checksum verification.

## Dependencies

- **requests** (2.31.0) - HTTP library for making download requests
- **tqdm** (4.66.1) - Progress bar display for download progress

## Setup

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

## Usage

### Download a single file
```bash
python downloader.py https://example.com/file.zip
```

### Download multiple files concurrently
```bash
python downloader.py https://example.com/file1.zip https://example.com/file2.zip -w 4
```

### Download with checksum verification
```bash
python downloader.py https://example.com/file.zip --checksum abc123def456 --algorithm sha256
```

### Specify output directory
```bash
python downloader.py https://example.com/file.zip -o ./downloads
```

### Disable resume (force fresh download)
```bash
python downloader.py https://example.com/file.zip --no-resume
```

## Features

- **Progress Bars**: Real-time download progress with speed and ETA via tqdm
- **Resumable Downloads**: Automatically resumes interrupted downloads using HTTP Range headers
- **Concurrent Transfers**: Download multiple files in parallel with configurable worker count
- **Checksum Verification**: Verify downloaded files against MD5, SHA1, SHA256, or SHA512 checksums
- **Retry Logic**: Automatic retry with exponential backoff on server errors
- **SSL Verification**: Configurable SSL certificate verification

## API Usage

```python
from downloader import FileDownloader

with FileDownloader(output_dir="./downloads", max_workers=4) as dl:
    # Single download
    task = dl.download_file("https://example.com/file.zip")

    # Multiple concurrent downloads
    tasks = dl.download_multiple([
        "https://example.com/file1.zip",
        "https://example.com/file2.zip",
    ])

    # Download with checksum
