Using wildcards in wget or curl query

Question

Is it possible to use wildcards in wget queries when downloading from directories? Basically, I have a site, say, www.download.example.com/dir/version/package.rpm

Answer 1

Although the above solution kind of works, it fails when you just want to download certain directories, but not all. For example if you have:

http://site.io/like/
http://site.io/like2/
http://site.io/nolike/

Instead put the directory names you want in a text file, e.g.: dirs.txt:

like/
like2/

Then use wget with the following command options -i dirs.txt -B like so:

wget -nH -nc -np -r -e robots=off -R "index.html*" -i dirs.txt -B http://site.io/

Since, I don't think you can use directories in the -A and -R lists. (?)
