- <div class="paragraph"><p>aria2 is a utility for downloading files. The supported protocols are
- HTTP(S), FTP, BitTorrent, and Metalink. aria2 can download a file from
- multiple sources/protocols and tries to utilize your maximum download
- bandwidth. It supports downloading a file from HTTP(S)/FTP and
- BitTorrent at the same time, while the data downloaded from
- HTTP(S)/FTP is uploaded to the BitTorrent swarm. Using Metalink’s
- chunk checksums, aria2 automatically validates chunks of data while
- downloading a file like BitTorrent.</p></div>

- is of type string. <em>uris</em> is used for Web-seeding. For single file
- torrents, URI can be a complete URI pointing to the resource or if URI
- ends with /, name in torrent file is added. For multi-file torrents,
- name and path in torrent are added to form a URI for each file.
- <em>options</em> is of type struct and its members are a pair of option name
- and value. See <strong>Options</strong> below for more details. If <em>position</em> is
- given as an integer starting from 0, the new download is inserted at
- <em>position</em> in the waiting queue. If <em>position</em> is not given or

- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.tellActive</strong></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method returns the list of active downloads. The response is of
- type array and its element is the same struct returned by
- <strong>aria2.tellStatus</strong> method.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.tellWaiting</strong> <em>offset, num</em></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method returns the list of waiting download. <em>offset</em> is of type
- integer and specifies the offset from the download waiting at the
- front. <em>num</em> is of type integer and specifies the number of downloads
- to be returned.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>If offset is a positive integer, this method returns downloads in the
- range of [<em>offset</em>, <em>offset</em>+<em>num</em>).</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><em>offset</em> can be a negative integer. <em>offset</em> == -1 points last
- download in the waiting queue and <em>offset</em> == -2 points the download
- before the last download, and so on. The downloads in the response are
- in reversed order.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>For example, imagine that three downloads "A","B" and "C" are waiting
- in this order. aria2.tellWaiting(0, 1) returns
- ["A"]. aria2.tellWaiting(1, 2) returns ["B", "C"].
- aria2.tellWaiting(-1, 2) returns ["C", "B"].</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>The response is of type array and its element is the same struct

- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.tellStopped</strong> <em>offset, num</em></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method returns the list of stopped download. <em>offset</em> is of type
- integer and specifies the offset from the oldest download. <em>num</em> is of
- type integer and specifies the number of downloads to be returned.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><em>offset</em> and <em>num</em> have the same semantics as <strong>aria2.tellWaiting</strong>
- method.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>The response is of type array and its element is the same struct
- returned by <strong>aria2.tellStatus</strong> method.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.changePosition</strong> <em>gid, pos, how</em></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method changes the position of the download denoted by
- <em>gid</em>. <em>pos</em> is of type integer. <em>how</em> is of type string. If <em>how</em> is
- "POS_SET", it moves the download to a position relative to the
- beginning of the queue. If <em>how</em> is "POS_CUR", it moves the download
- to a position relative to the current position. If <em>how</em> is "POS_END",
- it moves the download to a position relative to the end of the
- queue. If the destination position is less than 0 or beyond the end of
- the queue, it moves the download to the beginning or the end of the
- queue respectively. The response is of type integer and it is the
- destination position.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>For example, if GID#1 is placed in position 3, aria2.changePosition(1,
- -1, POS_CUR) will change its position to 2. Additional
- aria2.changePosition(1, 0, POS_SET) will change its position to 0(the
- beginning of the queue).</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.changeUri</strong> <em>gid, fileIndex, delUris, addUris[, position]</em></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method removes URIs in <em>delUris</em> from and appends URIs in
- <em>addUris</em> to download denoted by <em>gid</em>. <em>delUris</em> and <em>addUris</em> are
- list of string. A download can contain multiple files and URIs are
- attached to each file. <em>fileIndex</em> is used to select which file to
- remove/attach given URIs. <em>fileIndex</em> is 1-based. <em>position</em> is used
- to specify where URIs are inserted in the existing waiting URI
- list. <em>position</em> is 0-based. When <em>position</em> is omitted, URIs are
- appended to the back of the list. This method first execute removal
- and then addition. <em>position</em> is the position after URIs are removed,
- not the position when this method is called. When removing URI, if
- same URIs exist in download, only one of them is removed for each URI
- in <em>delUris</em>. In other words, there are three URIs
- "http://example.org/aria2" and you want remove them all, you have to
- specify (at least) 3 "http://example.org/aria2" in <em>delUris</em>. This
- method returns a list which contains 2 integers. The first integer is
- the number of URIs deleted. The second integer is the number of URIs
- added.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.getOption</strong> <em>gid</em></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method returns options of the download denoted by <em>gid</em>. The

- is string.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.changeOption</strong> <em>gid, options</em></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method changes options of the download denoted by <em>gid</em>

- <strong>max-upload-limit</strong>. This method returns "OK" for success.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.getGlobalOption</strong></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method returns global options. The response is of type
- struct. Its key is the name of option. The value type is string.
- Because global options are used as a template for the options of newly
- added download, the response contains keys returned by
- <strong>aria2.getOption</strong> method.</p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p><strong>aria2.changeGlobalOption</strong> <em>options</em></p></div>
- <div class="paragraph"><p>This method changes global options dynamically. <em>options</em> is of type
