Download a file using wget
command to a particular folder using -P
Sometime we want to download a file directly to a particular folder/directory/location. For example we want to download Apache Tomcat file located at below mentioned path to /home/
directory
Tomcat File Path:
https://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-9/v9.0.53/bin/apache-tomcat-9.0.53.tar.gz
We can use wget
command with -P
option
wget https://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-9/v9.0.53/bin/apache-tomcat-9.0.53.tar.gz -P /home/
After executing the above mentioned command, in the below screenshot, we can see that file is download successfully and saved at /home/
path.
