# [hubget](https://github.com/rtmigo/hubget)
CLI for Linux, MacOS, Windows
* Downloads files and directories from GitHub repos
* Does not create/modify local Git repos
* Files may be public or private (to which you have access)# Install
## Make sure you have `gh`
`hubget` will use `gh` internally. So you won't have to bother with
authentication when you have `gh` configured.`gh` is an official [GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com/). Install it [from
here](https://github.com/cli/cli#installation).## Install `hubget`
Download and extract a binary executable [release](https://github.com/rtmigo/hubget/releases):
* [for macOS](https://github.com/rtmigo/hubget/releases/latest/download/hubget_darwin_amd64.tgz)
* [for Linux](https://github.com/rtmigo/hubget/releases/latest/download/hubget_linux_amd64.tgz)
* [for Windows](https://github.com/rtmigo/hubget/releases/latest/download/hubget_windows_amd64.zip)Alternatively, get the executable via the command line
### Linux
```bash
# download and extract to current working directory
wget -c -O - \
https://github.com/rtmigo/hubget/releases/latest/download/hubget_linux_amd64.tgz \
| tar -xz# check it runs
./hubget --version# maybe move to some directory in your $PATH
mv -v ./hubget "$HOME/.local/bin/"
```# Use
## File to file
Download remote `file.txt` to local file `localname.txt`:
```bash
hubget https://github.com/user/repo/file.txt localname.txt
```## File to stdout
Just print the file to terminal:
```bash
hubget https://github.com/user/repo/file.txt
```Or pipe to other process. For example, extract the file contents without
saving the archive a file:```bash
hubget https://github.com/user/repo/file.tgz | tar -xz
```## File into directory
Download remote `file.txt` to local `targetdir/file.txt`:
```bash
hubget https://github.com/user/repo/file.txt targetdir/
```Or into the current working directory (note the dot at the end):
```bash
hubget https://github.com/user/repo/file.txt .
```## Directory to directory
Download all files from remote `dir` storing them inside local `targetdir`:
```bash
hubget https://github.com/user/repo/dir/ targetdir/
