Show HN: Gosh-dl an embeddable download engine for Rust

github.com

Hi All,

Been working on this tool for a while and finally felt ready to share and get feedback on it. gosh-dl,a Rust download engine meant to be used as a library, not a separate process.

It supports HTTP/HTTPS and full BitTorrent (DHT, PEX, magnets, encryption). The main difference from tools like aria2 is that you call a native async Rust API instead of spawning a process and talking JSON-RPC.

Please let me know what you think.

Thanks for sharing, one question: Do you intend to implement NNTP-Socket-Handler, or otherwise related to the UseNet?

NNTP isn’t implemented today, but it’s something we’ve considered conceptually. Usenet support would likely live as a separate transport module rather than core functionality.
