HTTP File Downloader (javascript, written by Gemini Code Assist)

Gemini Code Assist wrote this javascript 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 JavaScript project for a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine with only Node.js 20+ (LTS) installed. Include:
- Source code
- package.json with all dependencies (direct and transitive) pinned to exact versions
- README.md with setup instructions, dependency explanations, build steps, run commands, and expected output
