Python progress bar and downloads

Question

I have a python script that launches a URL that is a downloadable file. Is there some way to have python use commandline to display the download progress as oppose to launch

Answer 1

I think you can also use click , and it has a good library for progress bar also.

import click
with click.progressbar(length=total_size, label='Downloading files') as bar:
    for file in files:
        download(file)
        bar.update(file.size)

Enjoy !
