rd-cli

A command-line tool for downloading files through the Real-Debrid service.

Provide a link from a supported file hoster (e.g. Rapidgator, 1Fichier) and rd-cli will unrestrict it via the Real-Debrid API and download the file at full speed.

Requirements

• A Real-Debrid account with an API token
• Go 1.25+

Installation

Build from source:

git clone https://github.com/Opyd/rd-cli
cd rd-cli
go build -o rd-cli .

Usage

Configure your API token

rd-cli set-token # interactive prompt
rd-cli set-token YOUR_TOKEN_HERE # pass token directly

Your token is saved to user-config.json in the OS user config directory:

OS	Path
Linux	~/.config/rd-cli/user-config.json
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/rd-cli/user-config.json
Windows	%AppData%\rd-cli\user-config.json

Download a file

rd-cli download <url># download to current directory
rd-cli download <url> -n filename.mkv # custom filename
rd-cli download <url> -p /path/to/dir # download to specific directory
rd-cli download <url> -p /path/to/dir -n file # custom path and filename

Batch download from file

Create a text file with one URL per line:

https://rapidgator.net/file/abc
https://1fichier.com/?xyz

rd-cli download -f links.txt # batch download to current directory
rd-cli download -f links.txt -p /path/to/dir # batch download to specific directory

Failed downloads are logged to stderr and the remaining links continue downloading.

Commands

Command	Description
set-token [token]	Save your Real-Debrid API token
get-config	Display current configuration
download <url>	Unrestrict and download a file

Roadmap

• Unrestrict link via Real-Debrid API
• Download file with progress bar
• Custom filename via --name flag
• Custom output path as second argument
• --path flag instead of positional argument
• Batch downloading (multiple links from file)
• Retry on network error with exponential backoff
• Resume interrupted downloads (HTTP Range header)
